ART: Finding Your H(e)aven (SPN_J2 BB, Dean/Sam)
My lovelies, it's Big Bang time again! This post, made for this year's 
spn_j2_bigbang, marks not only my first participation in this specific Big Bang, but also my first artworks for a Wincest story. I managed to snaffle the story "Finding Your H(e)aven" ( LJ Masterpost) by the wonderful
winterwolke. As it turned out in our first contact, we both are German native speakers, so communicating was a lot of fun (not that conversing with you all in English isn't!). We really had a good way of talking to each other, discussing not only the story itself (which I really love to pieces), but different other things concerning the BB as well. Steffie, thank you for having me as your artist!! *padahugs*
And now - THE ARTWORKS!
As I said in my opening paragraph, I really love the story to pieces. I have read probably a ton of Wincest stories over the years, and I most likely have several favorites among them, but this story captured my interest for (at least) three things:
(a) it's set in an ABO world, meaning we have Alphas, Betas and Omegas (which has a certain fascination to me)
(b) the boys are not the hunters we know from the show, but FBI agents hunting a special kind of bad guys
(c) among others, Jody Mills, Benny Lafitte and Charlie Bradbury, three favorite side characters of mine, are part of it
COVER:
Note: Cas is here on the cover, but pretty much non-existent in the story (he gets mentioned once or twice, but that's about it). I only used his pic since I had the space free (and I didn't want to put another, more spoilery pic there)
CHAPTER HEADERS:
General note about the headers: the background images all stand for one of the locations we visit in that chapter, but are NOT the exact location. Chapter 11 has two headers - one of them is a bit spoilery for the story; and there's a reason why you see "Negan" on the last header (you'll see when you read the story;) )
END PIC:
As soon as I had finished reading the story, this image came into my head. And of course, my mind immediately provided the perfect pic for it - from the Season 10 Special/Gag Reel (I honestly can't remember right now!). Only downside when I finally found a version in quite some good quality - how do I get Cas out of the picture? XD As you can see, I found a way (and learned a new technique to delete background out of a pic on top of it)
ICONS:
You know the drill by now, right? XD
BONUS PICS:
The original pics for Benny's Diner and the most important postcard in Sam Winchester's life XD
NOTES & CREDITS:
Images:
Google Image Search/own stock
(apologies for the rather vague credits here, but I went through so many pics that I really lost track where I got which one; except for the background pics - these all are from Google)
Fonts:

Well, that's it! And now, please head over to read the story (and leave some love for my author!)
