those are lovely pics Virginie? where do you get them from?
I'm also looking for art for my Art of The Day on Insta/FB blog feed.

Till now I posted only couples, female assassins and hot warriors.
and one dragon in between. Need to get more of those too.

Among some lovely scenery as well as other things.

if you want to see, I added some of them on my Challenge thread.

I'll be haunting you here to steal some of your pics once in a while. Hope that's ok.

I was about to ask the same thing... where did you get those pics and are there 1080p versions, because I'd love to add them to my desktop background slideshow... it's been awhile since my last 50 image slideshow... I tend to do one or 2 a year to change it up... they change hourly with the autoshuffle feature...

[Virginie]

Thanks Laura! I'll take a look at your pics :)

I find mine mostly on https://wall.alphacoders.com/
I usually peruse the Fantasy and Anime categories once a day, to see what's new. I'm horrible when it comes to imagining scenes/characters from a book (the best I can do is a very fuzzy image that often ignores the actual description -> a blond girl when she's described as dark-haired, short lanky guy when described as tall & bulky, etc. 😂) so I like to watch pretty pics to fuel my mind :)

I also keep an eye on the covers of short story magazines like Uncanny or Clarkesworld :)
https://uncannymagazine.com/issues/
http://clarkesworldmagazine.com/artga...

For example, Ocean Magic by Sophie Dillon is the cover of Uncanny Magazine Issue 22: May/June 2018:

wow! this one is awesome! and thank you for the links.

whenever you can could you please post them?

[Timelord Iain, Tech Support]

Thanks a bunch... I just downloaded over 100 new wallpapers from the first 10 pages of Fantasy tags... I tend to like greens and blues and darker images or ones with a lot of contrast, like that castle that's night on one side and day on the other... I tend to stay away from person-focused wallpapers... like a lot of dragons/phoenix etc, too, but don't want the images to be too samey... I even recognized a few from my wallpaper collection, and your Alice in Wonderland cat pic... hopefully the varying resolutions work out, or next time I'll need to only look at 1920x1080 and 3840x2160 images (and maybe 2880x1620) that will compress exactly

EDIT: I fiddled with the options, and fitting it to my screen looks best, I think... some images have black bars on the sides, but the images look great...

I assume by 'them' you mean the pretty pics I recently found?
Will do :)

You're welcome. This website has the best wallpapers :D
I'm the same, I like landscapes and 'calming' colors... for wallpapers, at least. Don't like 'aggressive' colors on my desktop :p

[Zaara]

Wow Virginie! Thanks for the link, I think all of us will go there at some point 😀 and the last one (Sophie Dillon mag cover) is so beautiful....often dream that scene. Ohk....by often I mean I've prolly dreamt it six or seven times in my whole life. But very vividly.....and my hair used to be just like that all thru Uni. So I feel like I am IN that pic.

And would you please share the link for that (cake eating) GIF at the top of this pagepls Iain?
Because when I saw it 😂😂😂 I immediately thought of something I wanna use it for!

The skill is in finding the gifs again... it's not like I save these anywhere... I just do a google search when I need one I remember... this was Smooth Hill GIF (I saw it last year, I think) ... other was Cute Lizard Tummy (I saw it last week as part of this self-image meme)

I won't 🙈 It's another rabbit hole I don't want to fall in. Instead I'll wait here patiently for Virginie's best-of and let her do all the work :)

these are awesome Virginie. And that first guy has some class stuff on artstation.

I'm trying to find and get in touch with as many artists as I can to showcase their art on my blog. And your tips are awesome.
Thank you!!

I'll keep stalking. :)

found some more great art too, but lady angels/warriors and fantasy characters. No dragons or landscapes till now, except those I'm stealing from you that is. :D

[Virginie]

Hehe, you're welcome :)

Petrik often mentions Richard Anderson as his favorite cover artist:


Plenty more on:
http://www.flaptrapsart.com/
http://conceptartworld.com/artists/ri...

You should discover (and hopefully be able to get in touch with) other artists on the second website I linked.

EDIT: I went and added the links to previous pics so you can check the artist if you want :)

[Laura]

thank you!!! You're the best!
I did check those links. Saw the rest of the art the guys have and bookmarked the site.
I'll do the same for these other ones.

Looks like you caught back up... I need to finish WORM Arcs 25-30 myself... after my Halloween bingefest I needed a break... keep meaning to finish the last 1500ish pages on my days off...

[Virginie]

Yup! Things are really going crazy now... I really like Taylor as a character, and this past few arcs gave us a lot of different perspectives on her actions. She reminds me a bit of (Super Powereds character/spoiler) (view spoiler)[ Vince, of all people... Not the craftiness, she's more like Alice in that way ('cause no one is on Nick's level :p), but how she escalates/attacks full force when her friends/family/people are involved... Just like Vince completely snaps whenever his loved ones are in grave danger. (hide spoiler)]

Today's pic: unidentified but super cute creatures...
