Why this piece is awesome: The description says this is a WIP, but it stands perfectly fine on its own! A quiet domestic scene in Harry's old place, with Thomas chilling innocently on the couch (notice the black lingerie beside him) and Judgey Little Brother Harry, plus the pets. Super cute.

Why this piece is awesome: A lot of Thomas fanart focuses on his prettier aspects (I mean, valid), but this is an absolute jacked Thomas with a shotgun, and it's great.

Why this piece is awesome: Really fabulous painted piece of young punk-wizard Molly in a magic fight with Mouse by her side. This is a perfect Molly from her pre-Winter-Lady years, right down to the Splattercon T-shirt.

Why this piece is awesome: Stunning art of Murphy as the Tarot card The Chariot, on a motorcycle with sword and gun. The composition and details are simply stellar, and Murphy's defiant air is perfectly her. The wings are the perfect finishing touch.

Why this piece is awesome: Absolutely adorable cartoon-style image of Harry and Thomas being, well, Harry and Thomas. Harry's pouty annoyed face is great, as is the height difference.

Why this piece is awesome: This delightful cartoon shows the aftermath of Harry trying something in his workshop that clearly did not go as planned. There's a whole story captured in just one image here, from Harry's defeated pose and bathrobe to the fire extinguisher and Bob being juuust a little smug about it all.

Why this piece is awesome: There's a wonderful old-school, mid-20th-century horror vibe to this image of Harry and a werewolf. It's a lot more realistic and rough around the edges than the slicker look of a lot of digital fanart, and could easily be a horror-thriller-esque book cover.

Hi, I'm reccing Dresden Files for July! I recced this fandom here before in *pause for faint boggling* 2010, and let me just say that the amount of great fanart that's come out since then blows my mind.

Fandom: The Dresden Files
Characters/Pairing/Other Subject: Harry Dresden, Thomas Raith
Content Notes/Warnings: n/a
Medium: digital
Artist on DW/LJ: n/a
Artist Website/Gallery: https://www.deviantart.com/mika-blackfield/gallery
Why this piece is awesome: Let's start off with this absolutely stunning image of Harry and Thomas fighting back to back! This is an absolutely striking scene in every way, from the likenesses to the action pose, to the details of Harry's staff and Thomas's gun and kukri, to the incredible background. The characters look astonishingly as I picture them; the artist really nails Harry's rough-around-the-edges scruffiness and Thomas's bishounen-esque good looks.

I also highly recommend visiting the artist's gallery! They have a ton of amazing Dresden Files fanart, and it was very hard to pick a piece to feature; there's also a kickass Murphy, a really great Molly, a fantastic Butters, and several great Harry action scenes, among others. They've also done quite a lot of beautiful Dresden Files art that isn't up at the Deviantart gallery, including this amazing Thomas image that couldn't be more perfectly what he looks like in my head.

Why this piece is awesome: I'm cheating a bit and reccing all of these in a batch because I really could not settle on just one to rec. The Thomas and Murphy ones are probably my favorites; the artist absolutely nails my mental concept of the characters, especially buff and wickedly handsome Thomas. But they're all really awesome (Lara! No one ever draws Lara!) and gorgeously executed.

Why this piece is awesome: There's so much fantastic detail in this image. It's a perfect rendition of the way Bob and his bookshelf are described in the books, and every time I look at it, I notice something new. And the coloring and lighting are just gorgeous.

Why this piece is awesome: This is a great, realistic-style illustration of the fight with the ghouls on the Water Beetle in "White Night". One of the things I love about this piece is how solid and real the characters look; as well as being marvelously detailed, they look like real people rather than Hollywood people -- Harry's more dork than action hero (very consistent with how he describes himself in the books), and Elaine is slim and boyish. I really like this interpretation of the characters.
