Dean

There's a new comm spnspiration which is all about experimenting, and one of the posts talked about white space - so I thought I'd try something. Which wasn't really working, and I ended up with this instead.
Dean white space

Love it! Especially the One Perfect Tear (TM).

The OTP had to be there, right? :D

Well, that's just gorgeous.

Thank you!!

This is like a very cool poster of Dean :)
I watched the comm.

Yay! I expect to see you posting (once you finish all your other projects...)

I love this, it feels like a movie poster. Great job.

Thank you - it did turn out that way, didn't it...

I adore the starkness of the piece, and I love how you rendered Dean's mouth. Nice!

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2014-10-14 06:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you! It was done very quick and I'd thought the mouth was a bit dodgy, so it's especially nice that you liked it!

Awesome use of the white space. Perfect word for the tear. So good.

Thanks very much!

VERY cool, AMB! I love b&w graphics. Totally works! You should do one for Sam, Cas and Crowley too!

(And YAY, OPT!)

Love it, especially the hard shadows <3 The placement of the text and the old fashion typed font work very well.

White space/empty space is so hard, I'm always tempted to fill it up. If I made something like this my fingers would itch to fill the black background. BUT IT'S SO GOOD AS IT IS! *applauds*

I never do stuff this clean and simple either - I was getting quite twitchy! LOL

Flails all over this one!! It's so poetic somehow. And I love word clouds, especially when they show up in the strangest of places.

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2014-10-14 08:25 pm (UTC)(link)
me too, word clouds are awesome.

[identity profile] rockstarpeach.livejournal.com 2014-10-14 08:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Well I'm glad that other thing didn't work, because this is pretty cool :)

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2014-10-14 08:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Why thank you kindly.

[identity profile] siennavie.livejournal.com 2014-10-14 08:28 pm (UTC)(link)
♥ Beautiful. I particularly love how you used the words to frame the eye.

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2014-10-14 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
ha ha well, there's the thing - I started off thinking I'd try one of those word pictures where they make someone's face out of words but then I realised that was going to take weeks... LOL

This is stunning, I love the shadow falling over his face and the OPT, and his lips are beautiful.

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2014-10-14 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Aw thank you. x

[identity profile] ash48.livejournal.com 2014-10-14 10:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Ooh, this one is awesome too! (you can telling I'm working backwards through the posts - as ya do). Love this style.

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2014-10-15 05:47 am (UTC)(link)
Ha ha nothing wrong with living backwards. Like Merlin...
Thanks!

I love the light and shadow, the mouth, the font choices and the OPT... It's simply drawn, but gives the viewer a lot to think about. I like it a lot! :)

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2014-10-15 05:47 am (UTC)(link)
Cool beans! Thank you!

[identity profile] dear-tiger.livejournal.com 2014-10-15 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
Ooooh, dude, this is really cool! And talk about experimental: I never would've recognized this as your work. Awesome :D

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2014-10-15 05:48 am (UTC)(link)
Sometimes I am unrecognisable... Actually nearly everything I do is an experiment for me (old hat for everyone else LOL)!

[identity profile] havenseptember6.livejournal.com 2014-10-15 04:59 am (UTC)(link)
Amazing! You're very talented. :) I love the contrasts in color.

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2014-10-15 05:48 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you very much!

[identity profile] madebyme-x.livejournal.com 2014-10-15 11:19 am (UTC)(link)
This is awesome! I love black and white images and the text works really well.

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2014-10-18 06:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks so much! Sorry I didn't respond earlier, I thought I had done...

[identity profile] justmep2.livejournal.com 2014-10-15 03:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Love it! And that 'fallen' tear, so appropriate.
You should print both this and Sam's and put them next to each other, it would look gorgeous. :)

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2014-10-18 06:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks my dear! Sorry about the slow response!

[identity profile] soserendipity.livejournal.com 2014-10-18 02:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I love it! So intense in its simplicity! It's weird to say it, but I adore his nostril and his black-white-black zigzagging eyelid. Really cool work, hon. Thank you for sharing!

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2014-10-18 06:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Ooh thank you! And not weird at all...
