It seems funny to say that fans of HBO’s Game of Thrones have been looking toward George R.R. Martin’s epic fantasy novel series longingly since the author has been incredibly slow in releasing his quasi-medieval tales. (There’s even a song about it!) Still, those wanting to dig into David Benioff and D.B. Weiss’ HBO saga before season two premieres on April 1 have been desperately waiting to hear the winds of Winterfell and get their fill of sex and bloody battles in high-def while news surrounding future books has been swirling.
The first season Blu-ray finally hits stores tomorrow, and we couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate than with a bunch of die-hard fans that have recreated the show’s drama and excesses. Check out some impressive Games of Thrones fan art in our gallery past the break, where the rival nobles and other star players are lovingly portrayed.
