For the miniature collectors out there, Dark Sword has four more figures in the pipeline for our Ice & Fire range -- gorgeous greens of Aeron Damphair and his brother Victarion from Jeff Grace, and spectacular sculpts of the Mountain That Rides and the Red Viper of Dorne in their famous duel, from Tom Meier. Watch this space for pictures, coming soon.
Meanwhile, to hold you for a while, here's the latest wonder painted for me by Jen Haley: a crossbowman's pavise in 54mm scale.

The shield is really beautifully painted. The archangel is fantastically detailed. I'm reminded of some of the Russian-crafted and painted miniatures I've seen on occasion, which are similarly ornate.
Or maybe something directly based on it.
And I've made a Live Journal account just so I could comment here.
Dear GRRM: Have you thought of tackling the great Knotted Beast of Meereen in a similar fashion?
Maybe a slashing weapon such as scissors isn't the best option, contrary to what logic dictates, and that's why you've been unable to defeat it for so long.
Perhaps you should use a spear instead, like our St. George/angel here? The dragon does seem somewhat knotted, after all.
Or is it in fact you who is depicted on the shield, fighting the Knotted Beast of Meereen? :O
That's gorgeous!
That is really beautiful though.
Or would you ever do mini keeps? I think we would all like to see a tiny Winterfell or Dragonstone.
New miniatures and football victories seem to have you in good spirits. I hope the book isn't being so inconsiderate as to dampen them.
Would be great to see you there again this year...I work for show, so stop by the entrance area and say hello and maybe I won't go running away like a little schoolgirl!!!
I only buy things I really really like. And you know where this is going so I'll stop here.
Night's Watch Raven Keeper from the Shadow Tower. I'm sorry- I didn't mean to blow the surprise for everyone, but I couldn't wait.
I can't wait to read about him shivering and changing out newspapers in the cages. Can not wait.
Dear Mr Martin, first let me say that I am enjoying your books tremendously! I have gone many sleepless nights because I simply could not put the books down. I have a question, what happened to Rickon Stark? Please write about him in the books to follow. Can't wait for 'Dance'!!!
Best regards,

I figure either it broke loose from your lj due to an earth tremor or something, or Lindi Engelbrecht thinks you are my bitch. Either way, I didn't want you to go a minute longer without seeing it.:)
P.S. Nice miniatures.
