As it does with almost everything, Game of Thrones is bringing fan art to the next level with Create For The Throne, giving fan artists around the world the chance to reimagine Game of Thrones props. 

The full collection of art will soon debut on Game of Thrones‘ social channels as well as partially at a Game of Thrones premiere party in New York.

HBO worked with advertising agency 360i on CFTT, part of the larger #ForTheThrone marketing campaign for Season 8. They enlisted artists from around the world to jumpstart this project, including the U.S., U.K., Japan, and more. 

The 18 artists work across media and began by transforming a single Thrones prop into a work of visual art. Inspired fans are encouraged to share their own work on social media (with an opportunity to be featured alongside the collection as well).

View all the transformed props below.

Game of Thrones returns April 14.
