I like the top one, though the models could do with being made slightly smaller so that a shoulder doesn't overlap the edge of the frame (which isn't strictly an issue, just a pet peeve of mine). I prefer it (the top one) largely because the smoke does not overlap the skin, and because I like the text more.
Not a banner, but this was made due to Nikolae's nickname for Deirdre. He calls her Pixie. So I had a flash of inspiration, and made a thing. Full-size and thumbnail version.
I know, the new banner's really bad. Nikolae's Pixie "And for the first time in hundreds of years, the night came alive with the music of dragons." ― George R.R. Martin, A Game of Thrones
