ELIA MARTELL AND BRANDON STARK
The deaths of the Lord of Winterfell and the Heir of the Eyrie, along with Aerys' demand for the heads of Robert and Ned, ignite a rebellion. Elia, isolated in Kings Landing without her children, must play her role as the dutiful wife. However, complications arise when the man who once demanded her husband’s head becomes her constant companion, the Kingsguard sworn to her.
Will she stay true to her duty or follow her husband's example and forsake it?
from we fall apart as it gets dark

The Kingslaying
"The Kingslayer. The false knight who profaned his blade with the blood of the king he had sworn to defend."
A rather gruesome little diorama for this, our spookiest of months! I've said before how much I love all things Robert's Rebellion, and Jaime's kingslaying is right up there. I think it's a fantastic aspect of GRRM's writing that we're told outright at his first appearance that he's "the kingslayer", and write that off as 'well he must just be sneaky and treacherous as all Lannisters are", and it's only two books later you learn he had complex, nuanced, straight-up heroic reasons for doing it. The heady mix of seige, betrayal, potential patricide, actual regicide, and mass human sacrifice to achieve twisted apotheosis into draconic godhead... it feels like 6 different Greek tragedies crashed headlong into one another, and seeing it all though a haze of steam, hormones, and septic delirium is just... *chefs kiss*.
This diorama was actually pretty thrown together compared to my usual standards. My ASOIAF minis are from a war game, so they need to come up with a lot of distinct units for multiple armies, and the books being pretty low fantasy only really give "late medieval man-at-arms" or "conscripted peasant levy". As such, you get some fairly weird and wonderful units, such as every Baratheon soldier having Robert-style warhammers, or in this case a whole unit in Jaime's lion helmet. For me, this translates to a lot of alternative Jaimes.
I am a bit phobic with Jaime, as I once had to swap his hands very last minute, luckily here he's young and straightforwardly right handed. I don't think the close up is at quite the right angle, but you can see his green eyes under the visor, I'm pretty happy that they look quite frightened/panicked. I added the cloak as well, got to have that iconic "It was that white cloak that soiled me, not the other way around" vibe. This is also the first time I've given him his oft-mentioned gilded sword, I love the blood on it forming the Lannister colours.
Talking of the blood... yes, it's a lot. In my defence, it's actually semi transparent in a way that doesn't show well in photos, but does make it marginally less intense. I also know Jaime actually pulled Aerys up and slit his throat, but I had a hard enough time posing these figures, i thought that would be beyond me. I also like the literal nature of stabbing him in the back, and Mark Addy's delivery of "What of Aerys Targaryen? What did the Mad King say when you stabbed him in the back" is burned into my memory.
Aerys himself is a random wizard miniature I had kicking about, I had to do quite a bit of resculpting to get him right. He has the scabs on his hand, but the Howard Hughes fingernails were beyond my sculpting skills. I made the falling crown myself, again, seven tiny dragons felt a bit ambitious.

Joanna introduces Jaime and Cersei to Rhaella and little Rhaegar
Jaime is the happy smilling baby <3 I believe Rhaegar was about 7 when the twins were born and since Joanna was Rhaella’s lady-in-waiting I thought it would be cute if Joanna introduced Jaime and Cersei to her and Rhaegar :) The “T” in Joanna’s necklace is a tribute to her husband <33
This is part of another conglomerate im working on

doing edits and remembering the way I made rhaenyra give jaime her favor unprompted at her wedding tournament. while her husband sits right next to her.
if i was rhaegar, i’d hate jaime too, cause what do you mean my wife just gave you her favor when you didn’t even ask for it??

I guess I have a more serious point about the start of Robert's Rebellion that Robert and Ned can't take any credit or any blame for it because they didn't have any choice (besides maybe fleeing across the narrow sea) or any real agency in the situation.
Ned is so clearly a loyalist at heart that I think it's fair to assume he would have propped up Aerys' tyranny if it didn't affect him personally. On the other hand Robert didn't start a war over his gf, Jon and Aerys started a war over Robert (Saying Brandon and Rhaegar started a war over Lyanna would also make sense but Robert wasn't involved). Whatever way you way up the war, it simply wasn't their decision to make.

I found my favorite! Rhaegar theory why he kidnapped Lyanna!
Want to know it?
I don't need a Theory, Satoshy
It was because he was horny and hungry for more kids, so he wanted to do one in a Song of Ice and Fire style
There's no other good explanation for this, Rhaegar is a bitch

Okay, so I’m not sure how long it’ll last but I’m back in my GoT era, but, considering we hear very little about it in the show, I’d love to see a movie/series on Robert’s rebellion. There’s a few really good fics out there,
And, I don’t know if anyone rise does this, but I’ve got my own fan cast in my head.
(If you disagree, please be kind about it), but I’d love to hear your thoughts, and if you have your own ideas on your own, I’d love to know see.
Rhaegar Targaryen
Lyanna Stark
Robert Baratheon
Eddard Stark
Brandon Stark
Rickard Stark
Aerys Targaryen
Elia Martel
Jon Arryn
Jamie Lannister
So this is who I picture in my head whenever I read about these characters. Especially Rhaegar and Lyanna! 😬🥰🥰
