Icons | Game Of Thrones

[galathea]

You know, I do watch shows other than Supernatural - way too many of them, actually - and Game of Thrones is one of them. I fell fast and hard for the show - basically within the span of the opening teaser - and it has such a gorgeous cinematography, I really wanted to make some icons. In the end I made more character icons than landscape ones though. I didn't find a source for screencaps yet, so I had to make due with the few images I was able to find on the internet. Anyway, if you're not watching this show, I can highly recommend it. It's a fascinating story about political machinations and intrigue in a medieval-like world with interesting fantasy elements thrown in for good measure. The acting is outstanding, the world building is careful and intricate and the characters have depth right from the start. The show really takes its time to highlight the characters and the world they live in, and I appreciate the slow pacing. So far I didn't really find a single thing to complain about the show. It's the highlight of my Mondays! ♥

Ooh, I don't watch the show but those icons are beautiful! It's funny but just a few days ago a teacher of mine mentioned Game of Throne in class. :)

Thanks! It's a wonderful show. I haven't been this enamoured with a new show in a long while. Heh, and that is a funny coincidence. Did he talk about the books or the show?

She talked about the show - she asked if anyone was watching it and there was a big silence... Then she talked about how she just loved medieval stuff because she'd wanted to be a medievalist (she's a 18th century specialist, as well as a Italian and French language teacher).

Ah, nice! Yeah, I guess the setting would appeal to a medievalist. The sets and costumes are breathtaking!
