Fanart Recs: A-G
Assassin's Creed:
AssassinsCreed_let me go by godforget (K+)
Such a gorgeous, tense pic, I love it. Altair/Malik or can be seen as one chooses.
AC: It's a safe place by mizuk0 (K)
Altair finally gets a chance to rest. Jerusalem was always my favorite city to bum around in in the game (not least because Malik is always looking for a chance to be hilariously rude) and this always reminds me of its beauty.
AC - Guardians of History by itchcrotch (K)
Altair, Ezio, Desmond, and the creed. I love this saying; it's such a foolproof justification for everything that goes on in the games. Beautiful pic. I might also be a little in love with the shadows.
Assassin's Creed Sillyness by candypalmer (K+)
Stay in school, kids! Then you'll get to carry 20+ weapons around without getting caught! Also, facial expressions for the win.
Avatar: The Last Airbender:
ATLA: Stormbender 1-1 by fanartist (K+)
A rough animation of the opening scene from Stormbenders, an amazing Zutara fic. A few things are changed around, but it's pretty much exactly like the story. Lovely art and motion, I love watching it.
DatAss by rufftoon (T)
Ozai's ass is PERFECT. Search your feelings, you know it to be true. Mocking the movie is always fun and rufftoon is my favorite cartoonist on DeviantArt so win-win all the way!
Zutara - Reality - 044 by dragonXtail (K)
Gorgeous pic. I'm not really one for the accompanying story, but the pic always touches something in me. Or maybe it's just that Zuko looks awesome in Water Tribe gear.
Zutara - Balance by Aranehl (K)
My favorite Zutara yin-yang picture and let me assure you, there are a LOT. Very simple and understated. It's what is.
AtLA: two to taango by TobuIshi (K)
Adorable little future!Taang doodles. I especially like Toph's look here.
Zutara by rikusumi (T)
Whoo, I knew there was a reason I shipped this...this just happens to be the shallow reason. Enjoy, Zutarians!
Teachers' Conference by Drisela (K+)
Aang's teachers have a whispered battle talk. I always love fanwork that implies that Toph knows what's going down with Zuko and Katara. Also, background love.
Avatar Facebook Water Part 1 by Golden-Flute (T)
The entire Avatar series transcribed to Facebook. I'm not even on Facebook and I still find this hilarious.
Zuko - the BURNINATOR by littledigits (K+)
Oh, the crack. Burninating all the people in the thatched roofed cottages!!!
Open Mouth, Insert Foot by Doozigitis (K)
Azula/Dai Lee ridiculous little comic. I like crack comics, maybe you can tell.
Avatar: Zuko the fire lord by Go-Devil-Dante (K)
Zuko doing the spastic dragon. Crack animation of our favorite banished prince.
Revealing Destiny by GreenifyME (T)
The link is for the coverpage, but from there you can access the prologue and the first chapter. A lovely Zutara/Taang comic that's most likely been abandoned but is still worth the read. GreenifyME is one of the leading authorities on everything Zutara in the fandom, just FYI.
Princess Bride Zutara by kingmukatan (K)
Zutara meets The Princess Bride. kingmukatan's style is very unique. Almost messy, but very consistent in a way that amateur art just isn't. Look him up for more Zutara crossovers and other stuff.
DANCE - Toph by TobuIshi (K)
The 2nd in TobuIshi's Avatar dance series. She's done nearly every character now plus a few couples. And there's always a nifty explanation of the dance style and why it was chosen in the descriptions. Very nice idea.
Avatar Fanart by ming85 (K)
A beautiful main cast pic with startling, vibrant colors and excellent composition. Just lovely.
One and Many by Isaia (K)
Isaia's art is always so genuine and beautiful. It also has an ancient sort of feel to it, like a cave painting or engraving, just timeless. Aang reflects on what it is to be alone and realizes he never will be.
Poser: Katara by Shirozora (K)
I've always loved the presence and power of this pose; it really showcases Katara's prowess.
Avatar fan meters by rufftoon (K)
Fun little ways of measuring the enjoyment of Avatar episodes, featuring Foamy, Zhao, and the cabbage merchant.
Avatar: Halloween Ship-tacular sylvacoer (K+)
A little Halloween fun with some popular and not-so-popular ships. Includes Taang, Zutara, Sukka, Ty Lokka, JetMai, and Smellershot. I don't really go in for the doujinshi/shojo style, but sylvacoer can sell it pretty well.
Gagstrip 7 by Booter-Freak (K+)
Booter-Freak has a veritable slew of these gag strips, but this one happens to be one of my favorites. "Where is the Avatar??" Oh, season one Zuko.
The Tale of Epic Proportions by shaolinfeilong (K)
Because apparently I can't get enough of Zuko acting like a total spaz. Zuko vs. the pickle jar: Round One! Ding, ding, ding!
More Avatar Fanart by da-coppa-one (K+)
Zuko, Mai, and Ty Lee discover a fire extinguisher. This can only end in tears...and lots of foam, apparently.
Sundae by bbitcon (K)
Ty Lee fixing an ice cream sundae. I really like the style of this one: it has a haphazard, real quality to it that most cartoons don't bother with. Plus, it's adorable. (Also, read the book titles.)
Avatar - It's just foreplay by sora-ko (K)
Zuko and Katara having it out, bending battle style. One of my first favorite Zutara pics.
Freedom Fighters by keith27th (K)
All 6 original freedom fighters in a very interesting, rugged style. I wonder whatever happened to Sneers?
elemental tango by oddfeesh (K)
An unknown waterbender/firebender combination shaking it on down. I love the lighting effects in this one almost as much as the poses; it's so intimate and beautiful.
Laundry by rufftoon (T)
A sketchy little comic based on a fan reaction to a certain euphemism. Incidentally, this takes place in an AU verse where Aang wasn't discovered for about 10 more years, so that's why Sokka is so much older than him. And yes, that is Yue in the Playboy Bunny outfit. Spirit World shindigs are awesome.
The Art of Seduction - Zutara by GreenifyME (T)
A fun comic featuring both Zutara and Sokka/Azula (there really is no cool way to combine their names, is there?) and a lot of brain bleach.
Zutara- I Need You by GreenifyME (T)
I know, my wall kink is showing again, isn't it? A lovely Zutara pic featuring (gasp!) traditional coloring. I always loved how they're not quite looking at each other, just something about it really sells the mood for me.
AU- I want to hold your hand by Irrel (K)
Toph and Aang being adorable in their little AU world. Irrel also has some lovely art in her gallery, so go check her out!
Toph by lychi (K)
Because the world needs more badass Toph pics. And there can never be enough.
AtLA Rewrite by KUNGPOW333 (K)
An amazing animation based on one of Fullmetal Alchemist's openings. Azula is particularly badass here.
Hand Games by shaolinfeilong (K)
An adorable Calvin and Hobbes-esque Zuko and Katara comic featuring clapping games and wrestling.
Zuko + Katara: "Changed" by TobuIshi (K)
A cute little pick-me-up after watching the Crossroads of Destiny. It made me giggle, anyway.
A Night in the Desert by Ghashsnik (K)
The gaang crossing the desert. A gorgeous pic and perfect desktop or other background choice.
Balance by Katsari-chan (K)
A beautifully understated Zutara piece that seems to say things like "I've got your back" and "I'll follow you" without ever saying anything at all.
Most beautiful thing in sight by Windy-Asylum (K)
Katara being a smug little waterbender while Zuko sulks in the rain. Nothing quite as pathetic as a soggy firebender, is there?
o3o Azula o3o by cursedgnomes (K)
Azula can kick your ass no matter what she's wearing.
.TinkerToph. by cursedgnomes (K)
Toph is not amused.
AtLA: sha-POW by Razzek (K)
A silly comic likening Avatar ship names to Batman sound effects. Hehe.
-:Embrance:- by Alamus (K+)
A stunning Zutara dedication pic featuring the healing scene after the Agni Kai gone wrong. So tender and heartwarming, it's almost unbelivable.
The Big Bang Theory:
A Day for Miracles by renisanz (K)
Sheldon/Penny illustration from one my favorite damalur fics. Also, renisanz is pretty much the only artist I know that can render these characters believably on paper. Also also, shaaaaading.
Bleach:
Rebirth by Rusky-Boz (K+)
So. Much. Emotion. Ulquiorra's faaaace. Acghsjkls. My favorite Orihime-brings-back-Ulquiorra pic EVER. Also, check out Rusky-Boz for your one-stop gallery of Ulquihime goodness.
Arrancar Outfit - prize by gejimayo (K+)
In which Orihime obtains a new outfit and Aizen takes the credit. Pure crack, but very, very funny. Ishida's superhero pose is the best thing ever.
Prompt 1: Life by Rusky-Boz (K+)
Another emotion-fest from Rusky-Boz. This time it's Orihime's face I can't bear. So moving in such a simple way.
Inoue Orihime by messa (K)
Two moments in Orihime's life. Contrast is key.
Las Tres Himes by ilovemybishes87 (T)
A chibi comic explaining exactly how I feel about Orihime and why I will never ship Ichigo/Orihime. Very cute and makes its point well without shoving it down your throat.
Razors by tarkheki (T)
An interesting chibi style you don't see every day. That said, utter crack. Very OOC, but incredibly funny.
For Miss Quinn - Bleach - CHU by Bratty (K)
What's this? Something that's not Ulquihime? I know, but it was just too cute, I had to rec it. Pairing is IshiHime.
Into The Night by Rusky-Boz (K+)
Hybrid!Ulquiorra + Kickass!Orihime = awesomeness count exceeded. No, but a beautiful pic; I just love the pose and their expressions, very heroic.
Untitled by TrickTrap (K)
I really shouldn't find this adorable as I do. Ulquihime with a kid...personally I choose to believe Orihime found him and is taking care of him until she finds his parents. Also, check out some of TrickTrap's stuff, very nice. Some are NSFW though, so tread carefully.
Death Note:
The Little Merman and The Little Merman p.2 by Hyura (K+)
Spoof of The Little Mermaid using Death Note. Pairings are L/Light and Mello/Matt. Pure crack. Features Shark!Teru and Ursula!Misa. Nice art and hilarious moments.
Death Note Mythology by pepper-tea (K)
L as Apollo, Light as Hades, and Misa as Persephone. Hades/Persephone is win no matter what the situation so this is just wonderful. Lovely art and the style is one my favorites I've come across.
Death Note by meiwren (K+)
Light, L, Misa, Ryuk, and Rem. A moment in time...too bad it couldn't last. Love this style, it's very light and fluid.
Death Note Gasm by celesse (T)
Hehe. Cute comic making fun of Light which is very healthy for him. Can't let that ego get too big now can we?
Death Note: Only In Dreams by behindinfinity (K)
Light/Misa being adorable. Always makes me kind of sad though, since this is really the only time they look happy. I know it's not really "art", but these people are all amazing cosplayers and photographers, so check out their stuff, it's brilliant.
WTF, Raito takes L for a ride by Go-Devil-Dante (K+)
L gets to go on the Ryuuku Pyuuku! Yay! Also, Go-Devil-Dante is an amazing artist, she just has some...interesting tastes. Still, if you're looking for good L/Light stuff, look no further.
silentreaper, slinkers n I... by Go-Devil-Dante (M)
A hilarious collaboration between three of my favorite comic artists: Go-Devil-Dante, slinkers, and SilentReaper. One of those pass-it-around stories that goes in a totally different direction almost every panel. Pure crack.
Death Note: Braindead. by SilentReaper (K)
One of many hilarious comics by SilentReaper. Very cute style and even cuter stories. Plus her Ryuk chibis are the funniest thing I've seen in a while.
Dogma:
Dogma faggotry by Neurquadic (K)
Loki and Bartleby in a lovely cartoon style. Who needs color anyway?
Final Fantasy VII:
My Drunken Valentine by BlackLillian (T)
One of my lesser ships used in one of the funniest comics you'll ever read. Yes, it's Vincent/Yuffie, but I don't even care. Read author description for my view on it.
Final Fantasy XII:
Oh, the humiliation by monkey-hero (K+)
The party decides to swap clothes. My favorite part is probably Penelo's utter delight and Basch's bemusement towards the whole situation. Love the style, just wonderful.
Trapfinder of the Year Awards by RivkaZ (K)
I cannot tell you how many times a fight has finally been going my way when suddenly BOOM! there goes 1000 health! What the hell, Fran! Ah, gaming humor. Interesting style. Can't say it's my favorite, but certainly interesting.
Mist Charge by o---Ayra---o (K)
Ashe being all mystical and epic. So gorgeous. I love the colors and effects, it's very cool.
For Value Received by Kintall (T)
A joke based on how disgusting some of the items you sell in the markets can get. Ech. Also, more gaming humor, yay!
Expensive Undead by BowmanMira (K+)
In which Vaan discovers a secret goldmine and Balthier and Penelo are astonished. Even more gaming humor! Also, my favorite trio to play as!
3 things FFXII taught me by Sharky-chan (K+)
And you thought the gaming humor was done, ha! But seriously, raise your hands if you've been guilty of doing these before. Yeah, that's what I thought.
How Do You Stop This Thing?? by soaro (K)
Vaan's first chocobo ride...at least, I hope it's his first. Balthier seems to have given up.
Firefly:
Firefly - River by Vectriss (K)
River portrait done in shadows and mysticism. Very beautiful and kinda sad.
Good Omens:
GO Graveyard Scene page_1 by Grrrenadine (K+)
Page 1 of 3. Illustration of an early scene in the book, taken word for word. I love the style of this, it's very fresh and original. Plus, Crowley's face cracks me up.
hastur by zelu (T)
A disturbingly accurate portrayal of Hastur's escape from the phonelines. Ugh, just looking at it makes my skin crawl...that's good art.
The End of the World by 00-TabulaRasa-00 (K)
Crowley and Aziraphale's last stand, featuring a flaming sword and a tire iron.
Happy Doomsday by Linnpuzzle (K)
Crowley and Aziraphale: the representations on Earth. I really love the soft feel to this one, it's very comfortable.
Paintballing by rhianimated (K)
Aziraphale's face in this one always cracks me up. Uh-oh, I'm not sure that stain's going to come out, Crowley...
Adam by Linnpuzzle (K)
A delightfully creepy portrayal of what Adam might have been...and could still be, I suppose...
GO- How Many...? by haillexi (K)
A really delightful Crowley and Aziraphale pic that always brings a smile. I love the expressions, the pose, and the colors especially.
The Guild:
The Guild fan art by splashed-ink (K+)
The entire party in-game. Wonderful cartoon style and even more wonderful attention to detail and background.
