Thanks a bunch Weasel (love the name, btw). This is exactly what I was looking for. I also did a lot of Google searches for different characters, but what I came up with was a bunch of low res images that were piss-poor to begin with. I have ordered the "The Art of George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire" but it has been on backorder and the site I ordered from hasn't been very forthcoming as to when they will be receiving more copies. I'm almost tempted to order the collector's edition which seems to be in stock and ready to ship but costs about 70 dollars more. Bah, the price I'd pay for good work. I'm also an art snob, though I'm no professional, I'm an accomplished artist myself and have quite a bit of published pieces floating around and truly empathize with you. I see artwork based off of worlds I love and cherish and think "where the hell is the creativity." It's like anything else transfered from one medium to another. A book to the silver-screen, a comic turned into a motion picture, a game, vice versa; every translation of the original work really has to embody the essence of the source-material; it's difficult to find a talented individual who has the talent to translate the imagery from a different medium unless they are utterly obsessed with it.
