Artwork for ReverseBang 2013 [The Third]

[beelikej]

Another addition to my 2013 artwork for the spn_reversebang has been lying in wait for a while, but is finally unlocked now (Feb. 12). This is the second set of artwork I made, but due to circumstances beyond my control I'm presenting it last. Which is fitting, because it was originally the third prompt I submitted;) I made an effort to do something very

These are really great! And indeed totally different then your other posts, but oh so awesome. The banner is my favorite, and I love to get a peek behind the scenes to see how you created it. Heh, the melted crayon technique really doesn't sound like something I could do (I always take forever with coloring XD), so I take my hat off to you. Awsome, awesome stuff.

:D :D

Thank you! *beams* Heh, I like making a mess with crayons; I'm just not patient enough to take time for serious colouring;)

You drew Osric! ♥

Irons and melted crayons FTW! Your utter creativity KILLS me, woman! I would never guess that's melted crayon -- it could easily be watercolor or marker. And it looks so good! What type of paper do you use that's not affected (i.e., wrinkled, discolored) by the iron's heat? Is it bristol? (Looks pretty sturdy in the photos -- doesn't flop over the side of the desk or table, etc.) But yes, all your hard work was very much successful -- you've really achieved the "look" of vintage comic pages. Brava!

Agreed that The Negotiator is magnificent (and filmed in Chicago, hee), but how on earth can you concentrate on arting while such a awesome flick is going in the background? (I work with music only -- can't have a television going while I'm arting, or nothing will get done.)

psst! I'm not seeing the first group of badges, the "Misha" badge or a couple of the BTS photos . . . just blank space. ;(

I did! But Felicia is my faaaaaavorite:) I'm thrilled that you think the look works.

I used the same heavy paper as for cutting: 375 grams Granite white, it's ridiculously sturdy. I did notice some markers can not stand the heat, I nearly lost Jensen's eyes...

I know the Negotiator by heart and did focus on my favorite scenes, but I must admit I did most of the work during commercial breaks *grins* I wouldn't have moved my arts & crafts to the livingroom if I had needed to work neatly. For cutting I usually work in silence (at my lighttable), because I tend to sing and swing along with music. That does work for me with digital fiddling though:)

Ugh, I think Livejournal's scrapbook is having issues at the moment, I had to fight with it to upload pics to my Credits & sourcepost just now. Please check back later if you want to see all of them. Thank you!

Absolutely fascinating. The incredible amount of work you put in to achieve the results you do never fails to astound me.

Wonderful work!

Thank you very much *blushes*

I just love your art and even more your art posts. I just love that you walk us through the process of how you do everything. It makes it seem almost doable even though I know there is no way I could do it.

Ahw, thanks! I really hope to inspire by that tour behind the scenes, because I had so much fun fiddling:)
