aletheiafelineaWelcome to the first rect post in Rectober! :)
Now, let’s make things sorted out.
FANARTS
Don’t forget that in most cases I pick just one work, and usually there’s more in the given artist gallery.
Some time ago I have made a multifandom list with a choice of my favorite fanarts. It has also Discworld in it.
Now to the art I haven’t included in the above list.
Ankh-Morpork by RomanDubina. Be careful walking The Shades.
Discworld: The Librarian and Discworld: The Luggage by kinkajoomotion have great colouring and composition. And The Librarian is almost handsome there!
Cheery Littlebottom by Shire-Rock, being charming.
Discworld fan art - Sword of Passione by zazB aka Guillaume Bonnet. And thousand elephants! Wait, no, I think they didn’t fit in.
Discworld sketches by Luzzerante. If I rec a fanart with an OC character, it must be more than good.
Bingeley-Bingeley-Birthday by Nimloth87. I love the design of Vimes’ breastplate.
Brownjobs by TerminAitor. The City Watch in a less typical graphic interpretation.
Dijabringabeeralong Pub by rhianmated. What is says on the tin.
Sergeant Detritus Choice by Karelias aka Tomek Karelus. It says nothing of the price, though.
[Ankh-Morpork backgrounds] by disasterscenario. Now I want a whole comic so badly…
Illustrations by Sia-chan for “The Wee Free Men”, a study project.
cocoa by faQy. Just another day on the Pseudopolis Yard.
NOT FAN BUT STILL ART
Not that official artists aren’t allowed to be fans too. ;)
French editions’ of Discworld cover art by Marc Simonetti.
Illustrations for Discworld’s basically everything by Stephen Player.
Ms Cake Suspects a Psychic Purturbation by Les Edwards.
Errol Goodbody of Flynn by John Howe.
Covers by David Wyatt. (Unfortunately he has no ‘Pratchett’ section; you just need to browse.)
And you all certainly know Paul Kidby, but perhaps you haven’t seen those artworks yet. ;)
OTHER DISCWORLD THINGS
Floorplan of the Pseudopolis Yard on The Watch House, the City Watch fansite.
As any fan knows, reading order is a serious branch of studies in this fandom. You probably already know the fanguide, but maybe you haven’t seen yet the recently published official guide.
Discworld Emporium official shop in Google Street view! The interior too!

Date: 2015-10-04 20:10 (UTC)I have a question for you: have you ever found good Granny and/or Nanny art? I've found great art of pretty much everyone else out there, between fan and pro, but not a single one that really looks like the Witches to me. But you've clearly delved much more deeply into Discworld art than I have.

Date: 2015-10-04 23:22 (UTC)About the witches, hmm, if we're speaking less Kidby-ish style, how about Sandy Nightingale (http://sandynightingale.com/terry-pratchett-calendars/)? Here (http://thegreatll.tumblr.com/post/52940837938/sandy-nightingale-the-witches-specifically-esme) they have it bigger, though only one pic. There's also Théophile Peuplier's Nanny (http://www.vademecum-dm.com/galeries/theophile-peuplier/theophile-peuplier/nounou.html) and Granny (http://www.vademecum-dm.com/galeries/theophile-peuplier/theophile-peuplier/meme.html). But they're rather less in my taste, as I'm happy with Kidby enough, so I don't know how you find these. :)
