Inktober 2017 Day 31 Mask

[amberdreams]

The last one! This is a rare and momentous occasion - I won a consistency prize! Ha ha ha! Okay, so this piece isn't really finished, but I've got sketchbooking tonight and I've run out of time, so it's getting posted anyway.

I give you - Mask.
An ink pic and a wee drabble to go with it. (Which is also momentous, as I haven't written one of those for AGES).


We all wear masks, of one kind or another, Sam thought. He glanced across at Dean, who was sitting at the desk in the library, nursing a half empty beer bottle. Sam was grateful it wasn't whiskey. The lamplight gilded the planes of Dean's profile, highlighting the laughter lines and the red-gold in his stubble. As Sam walked around the table the shadows gathered, showing him another darker side of his brother; Dean's eye a pool of shadow, his cheekbones angular as blades.

Sam shivered, assaulted by the memory of cracked tiles and a hammer blow. Dean looked up; smiled.

The drabble's nice and shivery, and the drawing is haunting, especially in light of the drabble. Especially done on the fly!

Thankee! Yeah, I suddenly thought I should write a little more than a caption as I was posting it, so voila! Drabble!

The art is cool and awesome, but with the drabble it becomes a bit creepy, too. <3

Hee! That's good - especially on Halloween.

I love this, both the art and the drabble! Dean definitely wears a mask, but I like how the light on his face has mad Dean remember demon Dean. And this may be weird, but I love how you've drawn Dean's ears - perfect!

I do have a thing for Dean's pixie ears... *grin*.
Thanks me dear!

Congrats on your prize - you certainly deserve it after all this work! Love the mask and the drabble; they both set an uneasy tone, which works so well with the ying and yang of Dean and demon Dean. Thank you for sharing all the wonderful art! Take care :)
