Calendar Update

[grrm]

Sorry, there will be no 2010 Ice & Fire calendar. After our deal with DBPro was terminated, there was simply not enough time to find a new publisher, negotiate a contract, hire an artist, and get twelve paintings done so the calendar could be released on schedule. A calendar really needs to be released by Halloween at the latest... some 2010

fantastic, and I'll be ordering this time for sure.

I hope you get Michael Komarck to do the 2011 artwork. his work is amazing, imho

Komarck is wonderful, but he did the 2009 calendar.

The idea is to feature a different artist every year.

Komarck will continue to do his stunning covers for Wild Cards, however.

I'm torn. Given the quality of the work he did for this year's calendar, I'd like to see Komarck hired to do the art for all things Ice & Fire...but somewhere out there is an amazing new artist we'll never get to see if he or she doesn't get to do a calendar or cover.

Oh, the handwringing!

I'll draw one for myself, then! ;)
(Seriously, though, if you want some free work from a student artist for anything at all, let me know - it'd just be awesome to work on your characters (even if they aren't for Ice and Fire) for you.)

But, hey, if the pilot and the series go through, we could have a 2011 Game of Thrones Calendar instead, and that would be cool, too.

I figured 2011 seemed a lot likelier, all considered. :)
