Coming up next on this lj: The Stargate Atlantis team is lost in the Amazon rainforest! Or, well, something that looks like a rainforest. Kind of. Mostly, they're not happy. Possibly tomorrow :)

Sometimes I feel like I'm only drawing so I can color in backgrounds. This is random fanart with setting/colors/idea mostly copied from a picture I came across. An exercise in crazy perspective and weird placement, please consider any and all errors to be filed under "experimentation". Also, Rodney isn't absent, he's just really slow.

• The state of me is mediumish, tending towards mostly fine. Work's ok and there's a spot of freelance design stuff here and there, but the really cool, big illustration project I thought I'd be working on, fell through unfortunately. So hey, if you're looking for a freelance illustrator with reasonable rates and a winning personality... :D (<-- that's me pimping myself out, jsyk)

• yuletart reveals are up. Mine was a Due South piece with Fraser and Ray (Kowalski) and was posted here.

• I'm almost finished with the wee Sam and Dean in Halloween costumes picture, and I already have another Glee picture in my head. With Mercedes this time, because Kurt and Mercedes deserve more BFFness than canon's delivering. And because Kurt and Mercedes being totally unimpressed by their boyfriends being distracted because they're too busy arguing over football and sharing frowns in stereo is an image that amuses me.

• Paid LJ account users, do you know of any coupons/discounts like last year? I managed to get a year's paid time for less than $10 then from a coupon someone sent me, but the year's almost up and any info on a discounted price would be helpful :)

• I changed my first diaper. I am both proud of myself for not being a total wuss and grateful that it isn't something I have to do often. I love my nephew, but I prefer the coddling and playing to the more unpleasant adult care-taking things that people have to do with their toddlers.

• Must see if people are up for another round of trekreversebang.

• I feel like every time I finally get completely used to writing the year in dates, a new one comes by and messes it up...

Omg, look, an art post! I refuse to let this year end with a weird almost two month hiatus. So, art, with more coming soon.

Title: Another day, another planet

Team, clouds and silhouettes...basically, nothing particularly different from my usual.

( Embiggen! )

SGA today, and *drumroll for new fandom* Glee art soon! 2010 is not over yet, dammit.

It feels like ages since I posted art :( I am, however, in the process of drawing two inspired by prompts. Works in progress, but here's a peek at:
• SGA: The team on an India-like planet
( John will make an appearance soon )
Of course there's a mango tree. And where there's Rodney, there are children.

• SPN: Wee Winchesters dressed up for Halloween
( Batman and Robin - on a budget )
Because John would not waste money on perfectly made costumes, but, in my head-canon, would totally help little Dean make something that gets close enough. Sammy just wants the candy. He wouldn't have cared even if Dean could have gotten the underwear over pants idea past John's watchful eyes.

In TV news: need to catch up with SPN and White Collar, am current with Mentalist and How I Met Your Mother (♥ stealth Barney/Robin), watched the last episode of Glee (ngl, I teared up ♥ Kurt) and Hawaii Five-O remains silly and pretty (♥ Daniel Dae Kim).

In conclusion, my new icon's from a painting by Linda Bergkvist. It's a very pretty painting. It's called 'Spoiled', you can find it on her website.

Title: The Magician
Rating: G
Character: Sam Winchester

Drawn a while back for spn_tarot. I chose the Major Arcana card, The Magician with Sam as the magician. My knowledge of tarot is um, lacking, to say the least. I kept the symbols that seemed the most important and kind of chucked out the rest, but that seems to work too? Anyway, here's the image for the card, and you can see the image with border and label applied here on the comm.

Art created for the lovely hold_onhope's wonderful story, "Some Greater Good" (Gen, PG-13). Time difference means story link is forthcoming, but will be edited in here as soon as I get up from what I foresee to be a very, very welcome night's sleep *sways on feet* ETA: Story link added

I created two pieces, a cover and an interior illustration, and two peripherals in the form of page/chapter dividers.

Title: Some Greater Good
Rating: G
Characters: Sam, Castiel, Dean, Ruby
Story: Read it HERE
Story summary: Castiel is told to protect Sam Winchester. To teach him what he needs to know if he wants to kill Lilith. Dean is in Hell - and the angels want him there. So when Uriel raises his brother from the pit, Sam, along with the unlikely ally he finds in Castiel, makes a decision. He's going to save his brother from the angels, no matter what it takes.

Title: Art for Deep Breaths
Rating: G

I picked apocalypsos' delightfully intriguing AU Deep breaths (Mary/Ellen, R) where Mary's raising the boys, Ellen's a mysterious stranger and things aren't quite what they seem.
The author's summary:
AU. Azazel offered Mary a choice, and she did what she had to do. She looked him in the eyes when he offered to bring her dead boyfriend back to life, and she told him no. Fifteen years later, she's divorced, a single mom, and living in the sort of quaint small town she used to dream about raising her family in. Enter a strange woman with a mute little girl, a woman who cracks through Mary's barely stable facade of a normal life. Featuring five tequila shots, four threatening angels, three fatherless children (maybe), two kickass women, and a platter of peanut butter brownies.

It's an amazing story with a really unique premise so go read it here (AO3 link)! [Or the master post on lj if you want to leave feedback there]
