Love it! Cannot wait for Season 3.
Just finishing A Dance with Dragons, part 2 on my kindle

One of those series of books that has you reading uttering expletives in disbelief!
My daughter loves that show. We bought her season 1 for Christmas. I see Season 2 will be available Feb 15, 2013.
Yes I watch them but not read the books
I just finished watching Season 2, and got my husband to start watching as well. he's 5 episodes from being done, and we hope to be able to watch Season 3 together when it starts. We love the show! I tried to read the first book several years ago, and couldn't get into it. I've re-purchased it, but am hesitant to start reading. I don't want to get ahead of the show, and ruin all the wonderful plot points!!!
I've read the books multiple times and got to see season 1 on-demand and season 2 as it aired last year because ATT Uverse gave me HBO free for 6 months due to screw-ups. Unfortunately they have not messed anything up yet this year and I'm still debating on if I want to pay for it or wait for DVDs lol!
I enjoyed seasons 1 and 2 so much, I started drawing the characters (beginning with Daenerys)

I haven't read the books nor watched the show, although it is the kind of thing that appeals to me. But do I read the books first? If I really enjoy the books I won't want to watch the show (still can't bring myself to watch the Hobbit or any of the Rings movies).
I think I'm going to finish the TV show, and then read the books. That way, even if the HBO series is over, I still have so much to look forward to!

This is BEAUTIFUL Allison! :clappurple: :hearts: Ive been wondering what you were up to artistically these days! :D

I loved the books, and read them all as they came out...but although Ive liked what Ive seen of the show, Im apprehensive about getting too into watching it. As I keep telling Scott, (who never read the books, but loves the show) Im just not sure if my brain wants the *visuals* to go with a lot of the horror and heatbreak I know is coming! :oops: 8O
I just couldn't get into the books or the show for this one....

I watched 2 episodes of the show when it first came out and Adam and I both agreed that it wasn't our cup of tea. I'm no prude, but I don't usually care for that much sexually graphic content in my television without it serving a purpose with the story. It wasn't until I got the flu this winter followed by a sinus infection, and found myself on the couch looking for something to watch did I get hooked. HBO had both seasons available On Demand, and I devoured it. Then I got Adam to give it another try, and he's hooked too. He went out last night to buy the DVDs, so he has them all when HBO On Demand takes them down again.

This was one of the few times I didn't mind watching a show after reading the books... yes they have to condense the story but they did such a great job with the characters and scenery that I really didn't mind. Both are worth reading/watching if you like the fantasy genre.

Also, beautiful work Allison!!!!!
Just finished season 2... Can't wait for the next season. Love it. Planning on borrowing the books from a friend too.
April is not that far away!
Allison - seriously awesome drawing!!

I've read the books and seen the show . . . I enjoy reading the books, but I'm ready for some kind of conclusion that makes sense . . . I never know what is going to happen with these ones!!
thanks! I'm working on another right now. LOVED the season premier
Tonight's Episode----- HOLY CRAP!!!!
Not on until tonight here in UK but I guess you haven't read the books?
:lol: "Holy Crap" about covers it, Allison!!! Hubby couldn't fall asleep for two hours after seeing it!

What on earth could possibly happen in the finale????!!!!


Laurie and Oscar

I thought FOR SURE that the finale was going to be Rob and his army taking Castley Rock. I guess not! And with that Red Witch and her leeches... makes me wonder what is in store for Geoffrey!!!!

no; and I'm holding off doing so until the HBO series is over. I like the surprises, oddly enough. Though last night's was brutal! I can't imagine having to read that in a book! 8O

I am glad I didn't read the books first as well. That was awesome to not know what was going to happen. WOW!! Hurry and watch because the internet is a blaze with spoilers and people going nuts. I had to watch as soon as possible and advert my eyes when someone was talking about it on facebook etc. Just was a really great episode is all I am saying. :)
You should have heard my expression when I was reading the book in bed!

Not sure how they will manage televising the later books?
Great pic, and you know I am a fan when my OES is named Dani :D .
I am really enjoying the show, it is well done and the acting is fantastic.
anyone listening to the sound tracks? I have all three, and enjoy them tremendously. But this last season is really lovely to listen to.
Tonight's the season finale! We're getting ready for San Diego Comic Con, and I'm making a new sketchbook. My old one was Star Wars themed...

the front cover


and the back


My new one will be Game of Thrones themed. I just finished the art for the back cover, though I've begun thinking maybe I should use it for the front

That's great Allison. I think it could go front or back!!
Too cute Allison!

I like it for the front too...do something on back with "Breaker of ??"

Your work is so cool :hearts:

Has anyone seen the fundraiser shirt "Mother of Dragons". Saw Drew Barrymore wearing it in a magazine. Can't remember details.
Thanks guys; the front cover concept was "A Game of Bones" and was going to feature Tonks on the Iron Throne, gnawing on the crown made of antlers. I just fear it won't be as eye catching as this back cover art. But I do like the title of it better for the title of my sketchbook. Hopefully I'll get it drawn this week, so I can show you.
I went through with it, and I'm really happy with the results!



I also added a last minute, extra illustration on the inside of the back cover; the idea just made me laugh, so I had to go through with it...

Wow, Allison, you nailed it!

Love the white walker. Did you use the kittens for the back cover?
I did! Kittens on the back, the throne on the front. It's at the printers as we speak!!!
Those are AWESOME!! I have watched the series and am reading the books to get ahead now.
