Artwork Quicky_Bang MatchMaker Challenge 2019-2

As a mod, I know what abundance of awesome fics is still available in the quicky_bang MatchMaker Challenge and I couldn't resist going for a double date to pick another short story to play with. It did take me a little longer than the two weeks I had planned to get the art finished, due to emergencies in other communities I had to take care of. Then I had issues photographing the papercuttings, but eventually, only four days late, I got it all together, yay! Here's the result (and a glimpse of the many different versions I made behind the scenes;)

As a reference I used this image that I found on Twitter/WeHeartIt/Pinterest, without any credit *sighs* (a reverse image search didn't help either).
The dashboard was based on a screenshot of Supernatural (from S11Ep04 Baby, grabbed at Home of the Nutty) plus close ups from an 1967 Impala for sale at SM Classic Cars.
Sam & Dean's shirts are a patterned paper design by Rebecca Green, from FLOW, Book for Paper Lovers, edition 2014.

Thank you, whispered_story for offering your lovely Sam & Dean story in the quicky_bang. I adored every water scene, it was hard to settle on one for the banner, but this line made the decision for me "Dean sometimes rests his hand on Sam's thigh, a warm sure weight that leaves Sam's skin tingling even through the layer of his jeans." <3
