Fanart Fun .. or not!

I knew for quite some time that my old monitor tube was slowly dying, which isn't a good thing for a fanartist *lol* The monitor got darker and darker and as a result my art got brighter and brighter and when I got a new monitor this christmas, I was quite shocked how overexposed and washed out my art looked *sigh* I favoured heavy grunge textures the last couple of months and those just don't take overexposing well.

Since I love my SN art to death, I took the time to re-work and adjust all my Supernatural art (well, apart from the banner sets, there is a limit even to my obsession *g*). The light pieces naturally didn't pose a problem, but some of the dark pieces needed a heavy do-over. A whole lot only needed adjustments in brightness/contrast and colour though and were all set again very fast.

So I had a real fun day today *lol*

Personally, I like the art just the way it is, but hey, it's not really my decision. ;P

Such a perfectionist, Chris. You are wonderful.

Personally, I always love your art, whether it looks quite as you intended or not. But I know what you mean about monitors - my monitor in work is much darker than the one at home, and just about everything looks completely different on it!
