AAAAAAH. THESE ARE SO GOOD.

Seriously, though, I love how you haven't over-worked or over-rendered a damned anything. They're perfect! They have all the information ever needed, and I love how you create your shadows.

(You do this for a living, don't you? :D)

[dun]

Heh, no I don’t do it for a living, though it would be nice if that was the case ;)
I’m so happy you like the art. I’ve been looking at ‘classical’/traditional art and it seems ‘simplify’ and ‘do the minimum’ is the way to go, so I wanted to give it a go :)

Hey, I won't disagree. Making one perfect stroke is better than making a dozen iffy ones! (Do you art for other fandoms or do your own groove? If so, I'd love to lurk!)

[dun]

Or perhaps, one less iffy stroke is better than a dozen iffy ones ;D
Almost all my art is in my lj, and also at deviantart (muddydun). But when I draw I usually just fill sketch books with animals, people etc. from real life, and I don’t post that anywhere. I’m not very productive when it comes to completed pictures, I’m afraid :)

What a glorious banner. Love everything about it: the painting of the boys in all greys, the dynamic painted lettering and the blood on the sword.
The additional artwork is awesome too. Gosh, the point of view of that dead body, so well done. The vengeful spirit is haunting.
Jared carying Jensen, oh yes (Those eyes, those EYES!).
The dividers are perfect too.

*applauds* Good stuff.

Thank you! *blushes, bows*

This is some spectacular artwork right here! It's all so creepy, atmospheric, and beautiful! Your shadows are divine and I love your minimalist approach to color, because your gray-scaling is magnificent with just the right amount of color to make them pop.

Thanks, I really appreciate your feedback; trying something different is always a bit scary <3
