Lady Detective Phryne Fisher by dustnox (G)

[mekare]

Hello everyone, I have the honour of showing you fanart from a fantastic fandom this month. I apologise for the late start. Miss Fisher‘s Murder Mysteries is an Australian series of crime novels set in the 1920s, focusing on a great female protagonist who becomes a detective for fun. It was adapted for TV with the blessing of the author Kerry Greenwood.

Let me start today with the titular character.

Fandom: Miss Fisher‘s Murder Mysteries
Character: Phryne Fisher
Content Notes/Warnings: None
Medium: Pencil
Artist Website/Gallery: dustnox
Why this piece is awesome: It is a beautiful portrait of Phryne, capturing her likeness very well, and showing her elegance and hint of sexiness that she always exudes.

ETA: Btw this artist also well worth checking out for their works in Merlin and Black Sails fandom!

looking for reccers for upcoming months & open reccing

[ratcreature]

It's time for our regular reccer recruiting post, and to look ahead to the next month. So far we have NO volunteer reccers who have signed up for December.

So it would of course be awesome if we had some recs next month. There is still plenty of opportunity for you to jump in and volunteer to rec next month (or to convince your friends to do some reccing). And many cheers for all of our members who volunteer to rec, especially if you rec regularly. Your valiant repeat efforts keep the comm alive.

Looking even further ahead so far NO reccer has volunteered for January, so that month definitely still needs some love (and recs! *g*) too. So please consider reccing in a fandom of your choice, whether small or huge, and comment on the sign-up post and volunteer for December, January or even further ahead if you are so well organized, that you know your fannish interests and time commitments in advance. It's only four recs as a minimum, and you can rec any genre or rating. Or promote us to your friends or in your favorite communities so others do the work.

Open Rec Posting

The monthly open reccing period for all members starts now and lasts until the end of November. Since the general prompts don't seem to work as inspiration, I've decided to stop adding them, but to keep the open reccing period in case anyone wants to slip a rec in, without having to come up with three others for a fandom. However the recs do still have to conform to the usual rec format and follow the rules for what is allowed to be recced here.


(Comments here are disabled, because I want to bundle volunteering in the sign-up post so that nothing gets lost, and you can see the list of claimed slots there too.)
