Cage Match 2010: Fans Respond to Naomi Novik’s Temeraire versus Jaime Fight


So, if you’ve been following the Round 3 match between Jaime Lannister and Temeraire, you’ve probably read Naomi’s excellent imagining of how the fight would go (not surprisingly, it differs somewhat from Suvudu’s). If you haven’t, when you go to the match’s page, click the link that says “Click here to see what author Naomi Novik thinks will happen.”
Besides inspiring her fans to vote, though, Naomi has also inspired them to draw. Check out what some her fans thought her scenario would look like (click the titles to see the art on the original LiveJournal pages).
First we have “Temeraire does Bette” by jacob_holcomb:

Next we have an untitled piece by gnine (love the dancing Cthulhu):

And then we have another untitled piece this time by takmarierah:

It’s nice to see that pitting two characters against each other to the death can inspire people to want to draw!
