A poster in search of a story : Xander and the Evil Clown (Nightmares)

So last week I was making award banners for slayerstillness Challenge 53 - and then this happened:

Great banner! I like the lighter version as well. :)

[red_satin_doll]

Thank you so much! The lighter version has that "extra something" I think.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One of my not so secret fantasies is to have someone write a story inspired by my artwork so yes please! When it's done I'll add the title etc (and then I'll be yours forever. *lol*)

[red_satin_doll]

No hurry whatsoever! Perfection takes it's own time - you know where to find me.

I'll reiterate my love of the brighter one, it's especially awesome. And ah yes, the chocolate bar, I'd forgotten that, because I was wondering why he looked rounder in the face than I remembered.

And thank you for the wonderful comment about Cracks in the World, I'm very touched.

Thank you! In hindsight I should have added a bit more shadow to his left cheek to de-emphasize the bulge but it's not so bad here as in other shots.

I confess I haven't gotten much further in the story because I've been busy with art projects (Seasonal spuffy banner comp etc) but it's on my reading bookmark list - and knowing that Buffy plays a part eventually should motivate me to keep reading (as if the prose and intriguing story weren't enough on their own.) So much goodness, so little time...

[sparrow2000]

Definitely so much goodness, so little time.

I can assure you that Buffy definitely is a big driver for the second story in the Cracks 'verse, but they’re not going anywhere, so they’ll be there, just as and when you get the notion and your art projects allow :)

[red_satin_doll]

:D Now you've really got me looking forward to it!

I'm just about done with my banner project for seasonal spuffy so yay!

[feliciacraft]

Whoa, creepy! (Which is to say it's an awesome banner!)

[red_satin_doll]

YAY, thank you! "Creepy" is rarely a mood I manage to achieve but that clown, man - that's scary stuff.

[double_dutchess]

It's so pretty! I love, love the colours. But the clown makes it scary too.

[red_satin_doll]

Thanks sweetie! Yeah that clown is scary - were they referencing Stephen King's "It" in that episode or just general clown fears?
