New Art

A couple of fast wallpapers I made over the last days. I am still kind of focused on brotherly scenes at the moment. *g* I have some concepts in mind for finale art, but that might take a while to realise. Until then I hope you enjoy these as well! :)



Rock On: This is quite obviously the already infamous Bon Jovi scene from the finale. It's just a simple blend. I had some more elaborate plans for this, with some stocks and all, but gradually I removed all extra images because I felt that the scene works best with only the caps and a good composition and not much fuzz going on around it. So I kept it very simple and I think it works fine, especially on a black background!

Rock On!

The Odd Couple: This was the wall that I had initially planned when I started my last wallpaper, but then deviated from the plan and made a comfort 'Happy Winchesters' wall. So, I sat down again and got back to my original idea to make a blend about the typical siblings banter & teasing between the boys. It's pretty self-explanatory I guess. *lol* For those of you who are not familiar with classic movies: The title of the wallpaper refers to the movie of the same name with Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon, as two men with vastly different lifestyles, who are forced to live in each other's pockets! One of my favourite movies and the images of Sam & Dean reminded me so much of Felix & Oscar, so I had to choose this title.

Gorgeous! "Rock On" is lovely (and I just love this scene. ♥) and "The Odd Couple" is so funny. :D Kudos Chris!

I really love the style you used for the second one, it worked so good to capture the idea and feel of it!
*sigh* Even happy brother moments still make me sad :(

Definitely agree on the "Rock On!" piece. It doesn't need all that much but instead just bringing out the scene in it is the best decision. The effects on the caps and the placements as well as fonts and placement of those too is perfect. Love it hun! *stares*

"The Odd Couple" cracks me up. Love how you did it with "comic strips" style, and the lack of all colors from the rainbow fits perfectly and helps hold up what the theme is. Using the crimescene font was an excellent idea! Only thing that I noticed was the siluette you have of Dean, might wanna soften up those edges just a tinsy winsy bit ;) Great use of stocks to highlight the issues! :D

Great work hun, as always! *huggles your sn art* ;D

*stares* Wow, Dean's eyes look so greeeeeen. Very, very gorgeous; the images look so bright and clear against the black background. ♥

And the other one? Mwahahahah. ♥

Oh your wallpapers always do make my day! I loved the Bon Jovi scene, even though I want to burst into tears every time I hear it now, the wallpaper from it is beautiful. You blended it all very well and the coloring it gorgious, I think it brings out the fun of the scene, but almost the seriousness of the lyrics when its thought about,so awesome job! I have to say that The Odd Couple wallpaper made me laugh, it really did. I love all of those brotherly scenes, and you used caps that really got the goos expression on their faces, and I LOVE that you added in the viborating bed and the quarters, that's always been one of my favorite brotherly things. Over all just AWESOMENESS yet again!

Oh, thank you - more for the screensaver and the desktops!

I have yet to see art of yours that doesn't touch me. Thank you for being out there and doing these - and despite the agony of it, I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with the rest of the finale beyond "Rock On!"

Awww!!! Great comfort art Chris! In a time when we're all in shock, I love how each of these revels in what we love about the brothers while never letting the sadness of what has happened creep in.

My favorite is Rock On! I really love the coloring you used with the dark red almost burned edging. I also love the use of lighting allowing the eye to flow from each point of brightness and color. I love how you can enter the story at multiple points and get a different perspective of the same moment.

And who can argue with the squeeness!! of Odd Couple. I love all the quotes and scenes you chose. *hearts*
