J2_reversebang art masterpost - Some Kind of Solitude

[amberdreams]

My second art prompt for j2_reversebang was claimed by the lovely amypond45, who took my prompt and wrote one of my fave tropes - a  dystopian future J2 AU. Click on the banner to go read the story!

 Hopefully this looks like a wee!Jensen

This was the original prompt - I was happy for whoever claimed it to take it in whatever direction they wanted to -
I did this one in a bit of a hurry so it was a little bit scrappy, but I hoped all the elements were there for a story idea. I'm glad amypond45 thought so too! :D



Then I read the story's version of this scene and took the opportunity to update it with some story-relevant and other details (like Jared's chest hair!) and to tidy up some of the linework and the background.


Lastly I did a trio of dividers to be used wherever in the story.

Process-wise there isn't much to say - these were all digital, both drawing and colouring, using a variety of photos - some as refs for drawing, others canibalised and played with to suit my nefarious artistic purposes. No doubt those of you familiar with PS will be able to spot these but for those who are interested, the landscape background is a played-with photo, as are the dividers. I used a variety of artistic effects, smudging and drawing over.
Here's a larger version of the Wee!Jensen hiding under the bed so you can see the freckles LOL.

This looks like another cracking story, and your artwork is gorgeous. Wee Jensen is so cute, I love his freckles, and I love Jared's chest, too!

Not to worry! You reminded me - I saved the fic on AO3 but never read it, so thanks very much!
