My Harry Potter Marathon Weekend

I'm having a luxury breakfast while catching up with the flist; I bought so much food to feed my friends who came over for the Harry Potter Mega Marathon Weekend, I'll be having awesome meals for weeks :-)
Organizing this past weekend has been one of the reasons I haven't been around on lj much. But be aware of my return; this afternoon I will post my first BigBang artwork of 2011!

Before that I want to share some of the fun I had with my Potter Posse: here are photos of all of us huddling up in my attic to watch seven films on the big screen.

Such a brilliant weekend \o/

Tonight I will finally get to experience the final Potter film, together with Hans, Jelle, Benthe and Silvia... DUNDUNDUN....

BigBang Source Post 2011

This is an extended thank you to people and sites that provided inspiration and material for my Big Bang Artwork, which you can find here and here!

For backgrounds and brushes in my BigBang Artwork I use photos I made myself**, for images of the actors who play a part in the stories, I often make screencaps. However: I try to avoid using character shots if the story is RPS and since I've sadly not had the opportunity to put those guys in the necessary poses take actual photos of those actors, I find what I need on the world wide web...

BigBang 2011 ARTPOST the first

Oh yes, it's that time of year again: the SPN_J2 BigBang! Working on art for this challenge was one of the reasons I haven't been posting as much as usual, so if you missed me, I hope this makes up for it;)

On claiming day I picked the sci-fi summary from angelhorny* because I found the idea of a virtual world very intriguing. I had fun coming up with a concept to visualize that. I hereby proudly present my artwork for.... *drumroll*



Title: Into The Void
Author: angelhorny*
Artist: beelikej
Medium: Photoshop & Illustrator
*ETA: the author changed her name in February 2012 but because the original letters work so well, I've kept the original 'Angelhorny' up. I did add a banner with the new name behind the cut:)
Pairing: Jared/Jensen
Story-rating: NC-17
Summary:After a big epidemic that almost wiped half of the population on Earth, a very sick Jensen was placed in animated suspension until he could be cured. Subsequently Jared's soul was transfered into a virtual world in order for his brain to survive. Many years later, after Jensen gets cured, they meet: Jensen wants to get reacquainted with the universe and Jared is his pilot. What will happen when they fall in love, since one is 'real' and the other is in a virtual world; will they ever be able to really be together?
Warnings: Bit of angst, Alternative Universe, schmoop.

Hidden in these pieces are my own photos and illustrations, but also a lot of pictures from several sources. More information about all the images I used can be found in my BigBang Sourcepost 2011.

Thank you angelhorny, for providing inspiration; your honest input gave me the push I needed to sparkle my imagination. I'm really glad we finally get to share our creations with the rest of fandom:)
