BigBang Source Post 2015

[beelikej]

For those of you who are like me just catching up with the spn_j2_bigbang, know that crimsonepitaph's story and my artwork went up yesterday! You can find all the links with my paperarts & crafts in MY MASTERPOST:) I'd love to hear what you think and if you like J2 to have a complicated love life, the story is a MUST read....

This reminder also serves as a sourcepost to accompany my art. It includes real life snapshots of one of the sidepairings: Jared together with Jason Momoa. (Hey, I told you their love life was complicated. Besides that, it's mostly a list of references and fonts I used for inspiration.

It will make more sense after seeing the ARTWORK, so check that out first:)

HALLWAY AND HOSPITAL SCENE:
hospital: GettyImages.
hallway: These guys on the beach were all over f*cking Pinterest, but I couldn't find credit or an original source and you can't link to images directly, what an awfully useless way of archiving.

additional research: Snuggling guys (NSFW) & Ribbon tattoos

FONTS
For the lettering on the banner, chapterheaders and dividers I edited the following fonts:
bannerscript: Great Vibes (from FontSquirrel)
bannernames, capitals: Tattoo Ink (from DaFont)
bannernames, lower case: Ribeye Marrow (from 1001 FreeFonts)
ornaments: KG Arrows (from 1001 FreeFonts)

BONUS Jared Padalecki/Jason Momoa
While I was looking for reference photos of Jason Momoa, I was happily surprised to find pics of him together with Jared! Taken on Jared's birthdayparty in 2013. To my knowledge these are not manips, he really IS that mesmerized by Jason, haha!
If I had gone with digital art, I totally would have (mis)used these. Click for bigger versions.

*cough* Those Jared/Jason pictures may or may not have been where my love for this pairing started. Granted, in my mind it got a lot kinkier...but still, J2. Always.

I was blown away by what you came up with, and to see the source for the art, and the whole process and progress towards the final version is very interesting.

Thank you for sharing!

Those are fascinating source pictures! Never saw them before!

:-D I really love your Jason, he is the sweetest and I think he and Jared could have worked if it hadn't been for Jared's restlessness. *mind wanders to kinkier*
I adore J2 too, but (not so) secretely have another OTP in this fandom. In fact, my Jensen/JDM could totally work next to Jared/Jason, haha!

The true source for the art was your wonderfully angsty story of course, I'm so glad we got to work together:)

This fandom and its extensions are a gift that keeps on giving;) *treasures all the men*
