RB2012 reclist #2

What is going with fandom challenges these days, people? Due to the flue (and my own fiddlings) I've only just today managed to catch up some more on the artwork on spn_reversebang and I'm amazed by the over all lack of comments. It makes me sad. Is it because everyone is busy? Too involved in canon to pay attention to fandom?
As you know in the past I've always been unpleasantly surprised how relatively few attention is given to art in a challenge that is supposed to celebrate artists. (No fic without our prompts!) But I think this year the stories don't get as many comments neither.

Come on, fandom, don't just lurk and read; give the artists and authors some love. If the amount of posts is too overwhelming, here are some pieces I recommend you start with:

( Artrecs RB2012 - part 2! )

I'm still not fit, but I was well enough this morning to start my exercise regime with Gilad again. Go me \o/ Also: my own RB artwork (second set) will be revealed this afternoon. DUNDUNDUN....

Artwork for ReverseBang 2012 [The Second]

After the paper experiment of my first prompt for the spn_reversebang challenge, I clung to my trusted digital techniques for my second story idea. (In a Reverse Bang artists creates fan-art which is posted anonymously for authors to choose as inspiration for fanfiction.) This time I made an old fashioned photomanip of young Jensen and Jared having the giggles and I called it 'Cloud Nine' (Entry #2033)
Here it is together with the short description I wrote to inspire an author: ( Teenage J2! )

This prompt was chosen by the_milky_way who wrote a very sweet highschool story with a pinch of angst. Of course I couldn't resist making a couple more designs to go with it. You can now join me in chinhanding for:

Thank yous
This artwork may have suffered from me having a bad case of the flue (a full combo of throat, sinus and ear infections with the barking cough on top) but I could keep going thanks to my mom providing support and food. THANK YOU.
Of course a big thank you hug to the_milky_way for picking my prompt and turning it into such a lovely story. (Go read it here!)
Also thanks to the spn_reversebang mods for running this awesome challenge again.

Thank YOU, dear visitor, for taking a look at my artwork! I really love to know that you sneaked a peek, so don't be shy to leave a comment, no matter how short, long, sweet or harsh. Concrit is encouraged and if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask!

P.S. PLUG
All my other designs can be found through my masterlist of artsy creations.
If you are more interested in non digital art, you may want to take a look at these pieces: my first prompt for the 2012 Reverse Bang was a paper collage of JDM, Jensen and cupcakes; for this year's spn_cinema I made clay puppets of Sam & Dean!

I'm already preparing for the next challenge....

Still waiting for official confirmation from the community mods, but if you're on my flist, you can already sneak a peek at my second set of artwork for the spn_reversebang! It inspired a sweet highschoolstory with a pinch of teen angst: How to do teenage drama the right way and still come out on top. Come over to ogle and read!

In the mean time I'm getting ready for our Sinterklaas celebrations. It's time to start on surprise wrappings and poems for my family! Oh and I still have to buy a couple of presents, oops. Better make a to-do list...

Speaking of holiday-festivities; I completely forgot to thank tanisafan and tmn1966 for the Pumpkin Cookies! Some of my favorite LJ pressies ever; they looked so cool, thank you:)
