Charity fill for cordelia_gray

So cordelia_gray prompted me thusly: a long time ago de_nugis wrote me a birthday fic about Sam and Dean settling down with Sam still damaged by the Wall in his head, and Dean gets drunk one night and picks a fight with some Canada geese in a park. And I would love so much to have art for it.
Your wish is my command...

And what a joy this was - one of my favourite authors and favourite ficlets - it's hard to say what was a bigger treat for whom!
Teaser #1

Teaser #2

Full pic - NSFW!

And a late addition - I couldn't resist the viking geese...

So I really hope you like it cordelia_gray!
The technical stuff - all drawn in photoshop and coloured in PaintTool Sai and Photoshop. I did a preparatory pencil sketch of the boys to make sure the positions worked ok as I didn't use any references for the pose or the faces (risky, I know! LOL). The geese are a paintified photo I googled, The window is from an advert for replacement windows! The wallpaper is a download texture I found ages ago. The bed was a google image search which I then played around with - all of which tells you I'm too lazy to draw my own backgrounds.
I don't like Dean's hand, and I think I got the dicks somewhat wrong, but I'm pleased with the kiss and Sam's hand. So you win some, you lose some.
(For my ref & again)

Ooh, I love the swans! And the grungy treatment of the room and the bed. Cool art for a cool fic :D

Thanks my dear, glad you liked the grunge!

Very nice. Gorgeous bodies and I love that Goose flying outside the window.. of course the smexing is quite stare worthy too. <3

Dean's freckles and Sam's moles and peen.. tongue kissing ftw!!

Thank you - smexing is a fun thing to draw... One day I might even succeed at getting it right! LOL

What's wrong with the dicks? lol :P
Beautiful art, bb ♥ i'm esp taken with Dean's freckles and, yes, Sam's gorgeous hand and Dean's tummy ♥ *sigh*

Thanks my dear, I just got Sam's position wrong so his dick would have to be about a foot long LOL

Sam's got a huge dick and I have no complaints ;)))
I love that fic and I think you captured the mood well!

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2014-07-23 08:32 am (UTC)(link)
It is gigantic (well length wise ha ha ha). Glad you think this suits the mood - I just love the atmosphere de_nugis creates in her fics!

Oh and I've added a new pic - viking geese!

LOL!!! Dean would've felt better if he had been knocked down by helmet-wearing Viking geese...Dean could learn to train one...

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2014-07-23 02:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe, those geese are tricky creatures...

[identity profile] tifaching.livejournal.com 2014-07-23 02:33 am (UTC)(link)
The geese! I loved that fic and your art is soooo perfect for it. I love Dean's toes sticking out of his cast and Sam's feet and the lines of their bodies and their gorgeous peens.

Beautiful work!

Thanks very much - it's always a bit scary trying to illustrate something so good... By the way, I've added a new pic of the viking geese!

[identity profile] tifaching.livejournal.com 2014-07-23 11:21 am (UTC)(link)
Hee, I live the little helmets.

And I k ow how you feel. I remixed it and it is daunting to mess with something so brilliant.

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2014-07-23 02:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Blame Sam for the helmets...

[identity profile] runedgirl.livejournal.com 2014-07-23 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
Oooh, I like :)

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2014-07-23 08:33 am (UTC)(link)
Yay!

[identity profile] sleepypercy.livejournal.com 2014-07-23 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
Wow, they are GORGEOUS. I just love that pose, Sam all settled right in-between Dean. Ah.

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2014-07-23 08:34 am (UTC)(link)
He had to be careful of Dean's bad leg... Glad you like it!

So pretty!

Thank you!

oh, this is beautiful!!! So moody yet tender. Love it.

Thank you!

I feel like you and cordelia_gray both gave me a gift here! I love your killer geese, and the way you've captured the small, ratty apartment atmosphere, and the sex that works around a broken leg. Sam's rounded calf and his feet stand out to me, and the intimacy of Sam's hand in Dean's hair.

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2014-07-23 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Well all your fics are gifts to me so that only seems fair - I hope cordelia likes it too... I did like Sam's feet and the fact you noticed his calf makes me happy. I don't think anyone has looked under the bed yet though... *wink*

OMG, Zep! My cat OC is clearly a mistress of camouflage in your hands.

(Edited to correct Zep's name -- I blame the weather for my inability to brain.)

I kind of like Zap too. She is a bit small and tucked away - waiting to take her rightful place on Dean's pillow when they have finished their rumpy pumpy.

OMG I AM SO LATE! SORRY SORRY SORRY!

I love this so much! It is the best.

The little Viking helmets on the geese! Dean's cast! The wallpaper :DD I love the way their feet are tangled together, and the geese winging past the window.

This is spectacular, bb. Thank you so much!

And the tiny grumpy kitty under the bed! EEEE!

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2014-07-25 06:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Yay! You found my Zep Easter Egg (kinda, no prize for clicking on her though).

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2014-07-25 06:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh that's a relief - I'm so pleased this is ok for you!
All the pieces are available for you to download if you want, just click on them to go to imgr.com - you can snag the HTML from there too if you want it for anything. Don't know what.

Oh dear ... this is amazing! I really love the goose by the window, flying .. its so natural and I love it! And 'm not even gonna comment on the nsfw pic, because there just are no words! *guh*
And lol at the viking geese, that helmet thingy really shouldn't look as natural on their head as it does:-)

The geese do strangely suit the little helmets, don't they! You've been busy today, haven't you! Thanks for commenting, I appreciate it. xx
