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 ( Read more... )

After presenting my first set of artwork last Monday, I finally had time to start catching up with the rest of the Reverse Bang artists. Here's my first pick of favorites. Go give them some love!

( artrecs RB2012 - part 1! )

I'm still reading fics from this year's spn_j2_bigbang, but this is my final reclist for that challenge:) As usual I focused on artwork and picked favorites regardless of pairing or plot of the story it was made for ( Read more... )

Aaaaaaaaaahw, the BigBang is over :( This is however not my last reclist yet. Just like last year, I took a look at all the artwork, regardless of pairing or story and was overwhelmed by the overall level of involvement. It's impossible to compare all the different kinds of art, as well as the amount of work or experience that artists offered. But ( Read more... )

While checking my own comments on the BB artworks, I came across some beautiful images made for spn_illuminated that I just have to add to the reclist: look at these wonderful prompt-drawings that were the inspiration for The Other End by artist vail_kagami. - I love the drawing with the flowing hair and dark shadows, it can be interpreted as either sad or dreamy.

A new collection of recommendations from the spn_j2_bigbang and once again it's an artwork bonanza, even though I finally had time to also read a couple of stories. So I've added three Jensen/Jared/Jeff ficrecs (two J2 and one J3 ( Read more... )

For this year's recommendations from the spn_j2_bigbang, I'm focusing on artwork, since that's always horribly underappreciated. Even though it really takes a lot less time to take a look at designs than to read a fic and -for me at least- it doesn't require a favorite pairing to appreciate. For fans of J2, this reclist also includes 1 fic I loved;)

I dyed my hair again tonight. I wasn't too impressed by my last effort, so this time I went for a hopefully more noticable colour: 6.66 Pure Scarlet. The dye already left a completely different mess in my shower. Previously it would look like a bloody murder scene, this dye was more like strawberry jam. I'm very curious to see the result on my head ( Read more... )

Had a marvelous weekend with Jelle. We spent a lot of time talking about life, movies and books, as you do. Of course we also did some sort of marathon on the big screen. He brought the Season 2 DVD of Beautiful People (UK); we watched all 6 episodes in one go, it was brilliant ( Read more... )

Me and my big mouth. In november I ranted about artwork not getting enough attention in Fanfic challenges, specifically in the Reverse Bang artprompt challenge. I pledged to do better myself and I did indeed comment on all the posted artwork at that time. I also made a reclist for Reverse Bang artwork. But despite my promise to continue commenting ( Read more... )
