Sammy Big Bang - Soft like a blue triceratops Art Masterpost

[amberdreams]

I was dead lucky to fall in with sprinkles888 for this challange - her fic is not only full of Sam, it's got loads of lovely imagery of all kinds. I was spoiled for choice!

Tha banner was the first and main illustration I did, but then I squeezed in a couple more. They aren't spoilers for the narrative, so you can view without fear.

For fun, here's a close up of the triceratops


A campfire scene from later in the fic, with stargazing boys


And a divider

This is supposed to be looking inside Sam's duffel (in case you were wondering).

Thanks to sprinkles for her patience, I was a bit all over the place with this one.

Process is pretty simple this time - all the art is all traditional. The two illustrations are watercolour with a little digital added (some highlights and shadows on the car scene, and the background on the campfire one). The divider was drawn in ball point pen and then coloured with watercolours.

These are gorgeous!! :D The blue little triceratops is super cute as is also Sam. And the sky in the campfire scene looks pretty and magical and the silhouettes of the boys are perfect and I also like how the branches add so much depth to the image. <3<3

Thanks bunches, especially for noticing the branches. It's so nice when someone picks up a detail like that! ♥
