I think at this point, Ros is just a way to avoid having to cast Chataya and Alayaya.

I agree dude, her with brown hair is way better.

I can't help but wonder if they're going to keep the thing in with Tyrion's nose.
 
 I doubt they'll want to CG every scene tyrion is in. he'll probably get some makeup scars though 
 
Awesome map of the entire world - don't know how much it gives away for people who haven't read the entire series though.

The map

That map is pretty awesome, but it leaves me with a few questions, namely concerning the Twins and Moat Cailin. My vague recollection seems to be that you had to go through them–there was no going around at all. The map makes it look otherwise.

i think you're misremembering and the twins were the only way across the river but Moat Cailin was unbreachable from the south...two independently important points
 
And i still have no idea where fucking asshai is

It's east of the Jade Sea I believe.

Also this:

This is a very handsome map. And based on the information you have, it's quite good.

But of course there's lots of information you don't have, so it's not accurate. There are certain things -- the geography and location of the Summer Islands, the placement of Qarth and the Jade Gates, everything east of Slaver's Bay and the Dothraki Sea... that you would have no way of knowing.

> Of course having now finished the map I discover there is to be a Map of Ice and Fire book published later this year which will no doubt contain an official world map. So I may have wasted some of my time here but I'm sure I can adapt what I've done to match the official maps and that will give me a good background to build the animation on.

Yes, I'm afraid so. I've been working on maps for the Bantam map book for most of the last week. Including lots of maps of places we have never seen before, and a "known world" map that goes as far east as Asshai. (Not a true world map, of course. If my world contains analogues of the Americas, Australia, Antarctica, and the like, the people of the Seven Kingdoms are unaware of them, so it did not seem right for the readers to know more than the characters.

> I appreciate you don't have time for more than a cursory look over this and it won't match the real maps you're working on but I thought you might get a kick out of seeing it all the same.

I did. Thanks for letting me have a look.
