.art: Annwn (Merlin, Arthur); No other pinions (Dean/Castiel)
Oh hai, actual content! Lots of actual content, for that matter. I can't believe it.
Two art things today, both for requests. There may even be fic later this week, if I can get things to cooperate.
Annwn (Merlin, Arthur)
A one-page comic for hilarytamar's winning Sweet Charity bid. It's the first piece of Merlin art I've done, and one of my few attempts at telling a story about them, so I hope it works ♥
Translation:
Tri lloneit prytwen yd aetham ni idi
(Three times the capacity of Prydwen we went into it)
Arac drws porth vffern llugyn lloscit
(And before the door of Hellgate, a torch burned.)
The sort-of organizing idea behind this is the Middle Welsh poem Preideu Annwn (The Spoils of the Underworld), only the poem is of course not... quite what happens, according to Merlin. Arthur probably goes haring off on some idiot quest, and it's up to Merlin to bring him back in, more or less, one piece. Stupid poets, always getting it wrong.
No other pinions (Dean/Castiel)
Done for kira_bouviea, to fulfill her Dean/Castiel Co-Op Swap request for a wallpaper with the text "Wings? Oh not for me, I need no other pinions than the beating of my heart within my breast." There are bunches of different sizes too!
1280.1024 | 1280.854 | 1440.900
1600.1200 | 1680.1050
.resources: caps by oxoniensis and disparue. Textures and brushes by elli, dearest, brasaremean, halo, sxc, my own stock.
In other news: As I said, maybe fic later this week. I also emailed a truly spectacularly idiotic chapter draft to my advisor. We'll see how that goes.
