Happy Yuletart, Mific!
Title: Death Gliders
By: Leyna
For: Mific
Media Used: Digital Painting
Rating: G
Fandom(s): Stargate Atlantis
Warnings: None
Summary: Steampunk!AU. The Pegasus Expedition journeys to a distant archipelago where they find the beautiful deserted City of the Ancients, awaken the deadly Wraith fleets, and become entangled in the politics of the God-Kings and their City-States. Here, John and Rodney escape from the city of the Serpent-God in stolen Death Gliders.
Notes: Thank you Mific, for the SGA inspiration. Your request for "Any setting. Any type of wings" got me speculating - in a Steampunk!AU are the Puddlejumpers and Death Gliders individual winged antigravity transports instead of small spacecraft? I chose to paint Death Gliders because the Goa'uld designs were gorgeous, and I wanted to play around with some of those elements – plus the thought of a SGA team vs Apophis confrontation was fun.

I don't think that the Phryne Fisher mysteries have made it over the ditch yet - but I adore the books and want to see what's what with the tv show. (And oops, that refers to the comment you made in your personal LJ rather than here. Too much Xmas?)

:D The Phryne books are a lot of fun, and I really loved the series, too. It is also fun, and gorgeous looking, and all the cast are great. It has a few differences from the books - mostly some extra plots introduced and extra backstory for Phryne.
The actress playing Phryne is wonderful, but she is older than book Phryne, which gives an slightly different (but interesting) spin to it. They also cast a charming actor as Inspector Jack Robinson, who is a similar age to Phryne, so he is no longer the avuncular book character (who admittedly wasn't one of my favourites). TV!Jack has awesome chemistry with Phryne, too, which the show is very well aware of and is playing up.
