firesign10 was a lovely person who I worked with many times in various bangs over the years. She'd gone on to publish her own stories in real life as Ellis Colton, and was vocal in her opposition to mysogny, homophobia and the anti LBGTQ+ stances of the far right.

The world needed more people like her, and it's a tragedy that she's gone.

Honour her memory and go read some of her stories. AO3 | LJ | DW

j2_reversebang number 2! The lovely MorganaDW pulled out all the stops and was working until the last minute on this epic - a true hero!

Story link: AO3

Summary: Once upon a time, Jared Padalecki was a young, happy, open man who, despite a horrifying childhood incident and many family issues, still enjoyed his life. That was until a random trip to Monte Carlo introduced him to the best and the worst of life.

Five years later, after watching someone he loved sacrifice himself to keep him safe, he was a private man who kept to himself in his home in the hills of Monterey.

When rumors surface that the man who had cost Jared so much might be alive and closing in, he hatches a plan to learn the truth, unaware that someone else is also watching over him.

J2 reverse2 draft

The art is a mix of traditional pencil drawing and then digital colouring. I had thought to re-draw it all, because there were inaccuracies that were (are still!) bugging me, but alas, I was too disorganised and the deadline crept up on me.

I'm so looking forward to reading catnipster69's fic, it sounds right up my street! Both my authors for this RB have been beavering away right to the wire so reading the stories is going to be such fun.

In the meantime, here's the art.

Watercolour and a bit of fineliner. I put little visuals in there so someone could run with a space or futuristic/post apocalypse world if they wanted, or keep it in this world, whatever direction they fancied. I love to see how an image sparks something for someone else!

It's me and

amypond45 again, folks! The dynamic duo... LOL Read the story here on AO3.

Actually I was not very dynamic this time and only managed a single piece of art, but for once it's one I really like quite a lot.

It's a bit spoilery for a scene in the story so you might want to read the fic first.

Hopefully you will all recognise this setting from the show! I was delighted to have the chance to draw one of my all time favourite scenes - I think that whole sequence in Lazarus Rising is so beautifully shot.( Read more... )

Another year, another fab spn_j2_bigbang collaboration! I've worked with Tammyrenh before, and as always it was a pleasure.

The following is spoilery for the story (though it's an early scene)

We put in an offer as a consortium from our Marvel artists discord group, Marvel Art Party, and Bulkyphrase put in the winning bid.
They asked for Okoye (or a couple of other characters) in a role swap/what if scenario, and kindly allowed me to try out Okoye as the Winter Soldier.

I've represented her as a fairly traditional Russian-version Winter Soldier, but tried to add some echoes of her Wakandan origins in the background and in her hair.

All done in a single terracotta Holbein pencil.

My first SWJP BB and I had the absolute pleasure of working with TeacupUnicorn on one of my favourite tropes - a crossing over of alternate universes. Many thanks to Teacup for the great story, and to the mods of the SamWin Jarpad Big Bang for all their hard work spreading the Sam love.

Technically there's a single image, but as you will see later, it's actually two stitched together.

Eldritch Reverse Bang number 2 - I was such a lucky duck to have my second art piece chosen by morganaDW, who's written an epic J2 vs monster fic, with loads of hurt boys (so much my jam!).

So excited to have two Eldritch Reverse offerings with two fab writers!
This is the first, with someone I haven't worked with before,

candygramme. Strange that after all this time in fandom that our paths hadn't crossed before, so it was lovely to work with her at last. Thank you for choosing my picture and being inspired!

The Phew! was I clicked on something that took me straight into the 'new' edit format for posts which I loathe, and I thought I was going to be stuck in it forever. Luckily I found the right settings and switched it back again.

Maybe this year will be a tad more productive.
