Oh, my god, that is gorgeous! As an aside - I wouldn't think you're weird if you want to do art related to my fic. Actually, I'd feel honoured, and pleased, and blushy and vbfhvlfrbvhj heeee heeeeee! So about this, there is no reason to worry about it. And I think a lot, a lot of fic writers would feel just the same. The fact that what we write can be inspiring to you, to anyone, it's absolutely wonderful.
So, yeah. Please feel free to just go for it, any time you want to. This is just absolutely beautiful, and I am now going to go stare at it for a while longer.
It actually makes me feel better with someone telling me that it's not weird and a relief, too, so thank you! I've been kinda caught up in silly things that in hindsight seem really dumb.
On that note, I actually have a H50 piece that I drew for one of your fics looong ago, well, a few months ago. My problem is; I don't remember which fic that was... It was one with Steve swimming, and Danny waiting on the lanai... I think... Anyway, this snowflake challenge has kinda kicked my butt into just finishing stuff I've started and posting it, so some more stuff might be coming your way soon.
I AM JUST COMPLETELY SPEECHLESS, AND HONESTLY, I JUST WANT TO SOB INCOHERENTLY AT YOU RIGHT NOW, BECAUSE THIS. THIS THING. CLINT'S ARM. PHIL'S TIE. PHIL'S FACE. I JUST. THIS THING IS JUST. *SOBS INCOHERENTLY* SO FUCKING GLORIOUS, I CANNOT. I. CAN. NOT.
I love it. Seriously, I love it so fucking much. And I get how awkward it must feel to, idk, force yourself to interact with people, in new fandoms and stuff. It was part of why I hosted that Avengers Friending Meme in the first place. It's why I love the idea of the snowflake challenge. And I promise you that my LJ will always be a safe space for you, and for everyone who just wants to chat and squee, because I am a-okay with those things ALWAYS. This thing is fucking beautiful. And I have never, ever met a single writer who didn't go all kahdfjshjfghdjkf over someone doing art, or fanmix, or a podfic, or anything like that of their work, because that just means that someone liked it enough to be inspired by it, and that means everythingI promise you that if you

Wow, I did not expect such an enormously positive reaction, but all the better, it just proves that my silly insecurities and doubts were just that, silly.
Thank you so much for all those nice words and all that CAPSLOCK makes my heart do squishy things! I'm so glad that you like them,
Your writing is just ajkdhlfhdlfhlasdj and I love to read everything you have.
I'm constantly inspired by you guys and I think I may even have some sketches I've done for your previous works too (problem is I don't name them properly, so it might take some time to get sorted). But never be afraid to ask. If there's this one scene in a fic or you just feel like a little happy doodle of a character, I'm always willing. I may not be able to do it right away, but I'll get it done!
I don't know of a single writer who isn't pleased and overwhelmed when someone creates a work (art, podfic, etc) for something they've written.
I had a friend who podfics, and we argue about this constantly. As a writer, I think it's a great honor that someone wants to podfic my story; as a podficcer, she thinks it's a great honor to be allowed to podfic my story. We go in circles. *g*
It's funny, because I feel exactly like your friend. I feel so happy when making fanart for others and when they get happy in turn for receiving it, it's just the best feeling (circles, as you said).
Thanks so much, and thanks for your comment! Will be joining everyone for the snowflake challenge!
I got here via sirona_gs. I know nothing at all about The Avengers, but your drawing is stunning.
And I hear you about being inspired by fanfic. Sometimes I read a fic and I just have to draw a certain scene, but only rarely I finish the picture. And when that happens, I'm all awkward when I tell the author "So, um, hi, your story inspired me, I hope you don't mind?"
But I'm a writer too and I'm very happy when someone does the same for fics I've written, so I really shouldn't feel weird about it, but I still do. Oh, well. :)
I'm really trying hard to squash that feeling of inadequacy when I'm posting art to people, but it's nice to know that I'm not the only one ;__;
I don't write (uhh, yet), so sadly art doesn't really get dedicated to art that often, not that I wouldn't love it, which again, I can relate, if I don't mind, why should they?
