H/D World cup Reveal

[lillithium]

So the hd_worldcup reveal is up! I drew These Five Years for hd_worldcup. We all knew that already, didn't we. Yawn. :-) Someday I will be free from being the slave of my own style, and put out pic that nobody can recognize. Someday.

Here let me present you an improved version of These Five Years. The frame rate has been doubled to make the movement smoother.

I'm glad that you liked it. :-)

Thanks for the info re audio editor. I actually have Audacity at work, but didn't know it also supports Windows until now. And thanks so, so much for offering me your help - I'll shamelessly take up the offer when needs arise. I hope it's okay and you don't mind.

Darling Lil, please don't ever think that it's somehow a lack in your that your artwork is recognisable... bloody hell, it's recognisable because it's SO BLOODY GOOD

[lillithium]

First, thank you so much for reading my commentary-disguised rambling. Only true friends will care to hear me out, and I appreciate it

I was actually quite confident that you wouldn't be appalled by the subject matter. I thought you might have problem with Draco's OOC-ness in These Five Years, but this was my groundless speculation and it looks like I'm wrong again. :-)

I'm also a believer of h/d being a non-fluff pairing. Not that I don't like drawing/reading fluffy h/d, but what attracts me to this pairing, ultimately, is the impossibility of them getting together happily ever after. It's against their best judgment to fall for each other and yet they have fallen, while hurting and fully knowing that it'll only cause them pain in the end. This has always been the kind of h/d I want to draw, and was in fact the fundamental idea of These Five Years.

I'd better keep my word and not talk too much about the story, but I just want to say that I went LOL about the painless sex thingy. Horny boys don't bother casting lubricating charm, do they? *grins*

God, I love this pit of art/Flash. It's truly one of the best things I've seen in a long long while!

[lillithium]

Thank you very much! I'm glad that you agree with the Flash and liked the presentation. :-)

This is probably one of my favourite art from you and that's saying a lot since I love everything you come up with. The angst slays me and it's really well done. It is powerful and haunting.

I'm quite ecstatic that this amazing piece of art was done for our team.

I really think that with fests like these you need to bring work that you create for yourself otherwise it wouldn't be as strong. It's very different when you create a piece for you- the satisfaction is sweeter somehow :) I wrote my wc fic for myself too so I know the feeling ;)

Thank you ♥ It's so nice to hear from another angst lover :-)

Although I said the art is done for myself, it's made to suit the fanon theme. It might have been less shiny if it were drawn for other teams. It was such a pleasure to work with so many talents in team fanon.

I really think that with fests like these you need to bring work that you create for yourself otherwise it wouldn't be as strong.
What you said is very true - if I didn't like the idea so much I wouldn't have poured my soul in some of the watercolor pieces and spent weeks to put the thing together. It's such a nice feeling, isn't it? I think we're both proud of what we have created for ourselves. :-)
