ALL of these pieces are fantastic, and I don't think I've ever squeed as hard over a piece of art as I did for Excalibur. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT. Also love the train tracks piece, and the 'red snitch' piece =P

Thank you for bringing mama's story to life with your art. She mentioned more than once through this process how absolutely in love with all the pieces she was, and how it helped encourage her, so THANK YOU! =)

Thank you so much! I was really pleased with Excalibur, especially since I'd never drawn anything like it before O.o

Eeee *blush* It was such a blast to work with her! I wish I'd had time to do lots more <3

These are so very, very gorgeous. Beautiful work!

Thank you so much! :)

Gorgeous art! And it goes brilliantly with the story! For some reason, out of them all, I really like the one of Excalibur. But the snitch bomb one comes a close second (omg, "red snitch" that's just too great for words!)

Thank you! I was really pleased with how Excalibur turned out, so I'm tickled that so many people like that one best too :D

Heeee, I was *so* picturing a snitch from her description-it stuck, LOL.

Wow, I love your artworks! They complement and add so much to the story, that I just finished reading. The dark, bleak muted tones of the illustrations fit the tragic dystopia to perfection, those few splahes of colour perfection in adding additional meaning and emphasizing the main story elements. I especially love your groupwork - all the characters are beautiful, and OMG Excalibur is STUNNING! Merlin's magical logo is perfection too, intricate and so carefully realized. Thank you so much for sharing all this with us. It's clear to see how much effort and time have gone into making these, and the fic readers are left all the richer for it.

Thank you so much for such a lovely comment! I really wanted the drawings to fit well to the story, so I'm so glad they seem do be doing that for most people <33 I only wish I'd had time to do more! :)

just checking this out again after reading the fic and soooooo gorgeous, hon. I can't get over how much I love these.

and I really love Lancelot in that group pic. He really stands out to me and ~feels like Lance. idek. :D

Heee, Lance didn't really fight me too much-he was probably the "easiest" in that pic--he was as laid-back and polite as his character ;) I used a ref of Santiago from his Heroes days, but gave him short hair, LOL.
