Have you heard of the Attack on Titan fanfics "A Blacksmith's Tale" or "The True Queen"? They're awesome fics written by :iconcrod42: and :iconmickeytaco:

If not, you can read them here:

On this day, last year, they requested someone to draw cover art for their fanfic "The True Queen". I was a long-time reader and a fan with art skills, so I replied. Below is the result.

The True Queen by Book-Nose

  • The cover was used on the official fanfiction site and printed as a cover for the complete Book 1. The printed book was then gifted to Dawn M. Bennett* herself! (*The voice actress of Queen Frieda Reiss)
To know my art was seen AND gifted directly to the actress...well, lets just say that made me very happy Luffy Anime Emoji (Big grin) [V3]  
And according to 'witness reports'...she was reluctant to sign it cause she thought it was so pretty and in the end wrote in small font 'so she doesn't ruin it'.Luffy Anime Emoji (Blush) [V2] (too cute)

  • But it didn't stop there! Crod and Mickey offered to take any other art I make to other cons across America. So, next up was: Lauren Landa! (Annie's voice actress)

A Blacksmith's Tale - Annie, Hanji and Moblit by Book-Nose

They came, she saw, they took pictures ^^

Then came art for Book 2, with Frieda and Eld.

  • Vic Mignogna himself signed it!

In one year, these two writers showed my art to the voice actors. I can't describe in words how happy they made me. I replied to their ad, thinking I would just make one piece of art and be on my way. Instead, I made two new friends! They give me constructive critique and they brought back a certain optimism I felt while drawing. (Not to mention that their fics are currently holding up much better than the manga, but that is my personal opinion.)

A new picture is in (overdue) production! Hopefully, we'll add another voice actor to the list in the near future!
