RULE I: WE DO NOT SHOW

This subreddit is focused on the written ASOIAF universe. Submissions of art including imagery inspired by the popular HBO adaptations will be removed, and comments mentioning the television adaptations are not permitted and will be removed. Moderators employ a zero tolerance policy and violators may be permanently banned!

Users should assume that any mention of the show is subject to removal.

RULE II: SOURCING

All artwork must be sourced, or it will be removed.

Please note that including the artist's name in the title, in addition to a link to the artist's "portfolio" is strictly required for posting any art! Art posted without an accompanying portfolio link will be removed.

Acceptable portfolio sources include:

• The artist's personal or professional website (on which their art is displayed)

• Artstation

• DeviantArt page

• The artist's art-based social media account (any place they share their art, such as Instagram or Twitter).

The portfolio link must be run by the actual artist! Links to secondary sources such as wiki pages, Pinterest, etc. are not considered sufficient sources.

If you are an artist and would like to share your work here, please feel free to tag your content as 'OC'.

If you are an artist and would like your work to be removed from this subreddit, please feel free to contact subreddit moderators and we will comply as soon as we are able.

RULE III: CIVILITY

No rude insults, personal attacks, condescension, passive-aggression, or general unkindness. In short: Don't Be A Dick! Endeavor to remain cordial at all times—even when engaging in vociferous disagreement with others.

Please note that unconstructive criticism or nitpicking of the artworks shared here will be removed, and severe/repeat violators of this rule will be permanently banned. You may criticize the artworks posted so long as you show the appropriate amount of respect for the artist. Again, Don't Be A Dick!

An easy rule of thumb by which to operate: Imagine the artist is reading the comments made in response to their art! Because sometimes they actually are!

RULE IV: QUALITY

/r/PureASOIAFArt does not allow photos of the books, memes, art generator creations (such as Artbreeder, Wombo, etc.), video game character creators, etc. to be shared. This subreddit is for artistic depictions of the series, only. Additionally, AI art is not permitted.

RULE V: SPOILERS

This subreddit does not require spoilers tags for any content except depictions from The Winds of Winter. If you have not yet read the series, you may wish to exit the subreddit!

All content from The Winds of Winter must be appropriately spoiler tagged.

How to use spoiler tags in comments:

Typing "Spoilers TWOW >!Spoiler goes here!<"

becomes:

Spoilers TWOW Spoiler goes here
