Welcome to Mockingjay.net, the most visited source on the web dedicated to the Hunger Games! We were founded in July of 2009, before the title of the third book had been announced. We're here to have fun with other Hunger Games fans with discussion, contests, the Jabberjays podcast, and an up to date news blog that covers anything related to the books or the upcoming film that is being made by Lionsgate.
Fanart Tuesday: Girl on Fire
Posted by Kimmy
Categories: Fan Art & Fiction



Artist: Budotty

Description: Katniss, from The Hunger Games, done with watercolors. Believe it or not, this is a dress. All of the fabric is being blown around and all of that fancy-what-not, but when it’s all settled down, it really looks more like a dress. A dress with a jumpsuit sort-of-a-thing underneath. Ho, ho, ho.

Perhaps I should draw a sketch sometime of what the dress looks like without the wind blowing, but, that would require the use of my wrist, and I might just be too lazy to do that. HA.

I’m already aware that this does NOT fit the description of her dress in the book to a T. But this was my own vision of the dress. I think this way it really gives off the illusion that she is on fire, and that’s what is important to me.

I think this painting is totally gorgeous.
What do you guys think? I love the whimsical feeling the watercolors give it.

That’s awesome! Even if it isn’t like it said in the book, it’s still amazing!

Wow. I really love this. It sort of feels like an out of body experience almost. Like Katniss was knocked unconcious and she saw herself walking into the fight, on fire.

This is an excellent vision of the dress. It really does seem as if she is on fire! Oh, and by the way, how did you achieve the effect of two different paintings on top of each other (the body then the blowing dress)? Thanks, Career Boy District 1

“Finally, Gale is here and maybe there is nothing romantic between us, but when he opens his arms I don’t hesitate to go into them. His body is familiar to me—the way it moves, the smell of wood smoke, even the sound of his heart beating I know from quiet moments on a hunt—but this is the first time I really feel it, lean and hard-muscled against my own.”
