the 'abyss' one with the hamster makes me think of Ursula Vernon; are you familiar with any of her works, by chance?
Ha, good eye! :D That is indeed her art, and I'm a big fan of both her artistic style and her writing. (I've read almost all of her kid books and a fair number of her stories, still need to read the self-pub novels at some point.)
Thank you for the icon picks! I shall ramble on them in the next post :D
I had to choose between my three Temeraire icons on LJ, since I really don't have reason for more than one one, and just had to go with Perscitia and Temeraire's math rivalry (she's my favorite character in the series).
And mad props on the 'good coat and a short friend' icon;
Ha, thank you! A friend I dragged into introduced to Dragaera thought to apply the quote to the two of them, and I knew just the art I wanted to go with it -- not that there is a lot of Dragaera art out there. This one's by Dylan Meconis, from a lineup for what would've been such an awesome comic. There used to be a page up with all the sketches, but I can't seem to find it at the moment. You can see the larger art here, and there are individual character sheets here on Flickr.
