Dividers:







It was lovely to work with riyku again, and her fic is deliciously dark and well-written, with necromancers and resurrections and witches and killings and agh, I love dark!Winchesters so much, and she does a wonderful job with them. I regret that I wasn't able to put together any more art for the challenge, but it's not because the story isn't fantastic! Go and give it a read! :D

sorry to get a little spammy, but I'm finally getting caught up on life

Have I told you recently that you're the best? 'Cause you're absolutely the best. At the risk of sounding like a broken record, 'lo these many months later I'm still in love with this artwork. The coloring, the forest like bookends, the hazy light and the almost non-color of the sky. Not to mention the boys here. Beautifully creepy and driven, a similar intensity about their eyes, Sam's wicked grin and Dean's thigh holster of porn. And all the little details, like the blood on the cuffs of their pants, the new scars they carry. Let's not forget about the dividers! I love them both so much, and thank you for taking the hawthorne theme and working it into them. Brilliant!

Thank you so much for providing such fantastic inspiration, for handing over your artwork and letting me interpret it any way I wanted, and for being such an awesome partner in crime. It was great working with you again!
