       For the banners, dividers, etc...I gave the choice to [info]obstinatrix. I told her she could choose between two completely different styles. Chibies on the one hand, with a tiny Castiel hiding into Sam's body and "real size characters" on the other hand. I let you guess what she chose.

FOR THE PHOTOSHOP GEEKS: Sketches and gif WIP 




Click on the title of the sketch to full view!!

1) Sketch for Art#1, Our Bodies, Possessed by Light. [Ballpoint pen & color pencils]
I  was betaing a friend obsessed by Mucha so I guessed it influenced me for this art. 

2) Sketch for Art#2, Jimmy dies on a Thursday. [Ballpoint pen & color pencils]

3) Sketch for Art#7, At last. [Graphite on paper]

4) Sketch for Art#7 [Watercolor, poster paint, pencil & Photoshop CS4]

Little running Cas', how does it work?

It's an gif with 10 different little Cas' that correspond to 10 animation frames. Each layer is visible during 0,1 second, which creates the movement.



I was helped by this image that decompose the movement of a running character. (I'm sorry about the source, I've had this image in my HD for ages and I don't remember where I found it)




That's it for this [info]deancasbigbang Art Post
See you soon for the [info]spn_reversebangand [info]spn_cinema.
I hope you enjoyed it. See you soon!!

i really love your attention to detail :D and chibi!cas XD sooo cute! <3
4th-Oct-2011 09:15 am (UTC)
You know me now, I'm a detail freak xD
For chibi!Cas, you can thank obstinatrix :)
Thanks a lot for the great comment about my art ♥

I am basically dying a little over here. I've been reading the story as [info]obstinatrix has been writing it, so to see this absolutely gorgeous art paired with this brilliant story, I...I don't know what to say.

My God, everything is so perfect. It's perfect. All there is to it. Wow.
4th-Oct-2011 09:17 am (UTC)
I...I don't know what to say.
Don't worry, your comment is perfect, I can't complain ^o^

I agree, it's a brilliant story, I wanted to grab it the moment obstinatrix posted this sentence about Sam being Cas' vessel in the DCBB authors' check in post \o/

Thanks a lot for enjoying this post so much ♥
3rd-Oct-2011 08:52 am (UTC)
your art is absolutely fantastic, just wow. absolutely breathtaking. and this is probably an odd thing to fixate on, but the attention to detail of sam's hair! you captured it perfectly. amaing work.
4th-Oct-2011 09:18 am (UTC)
No, no, it's not a strange thing to focus on, I'm a kind of hair fetishist so I always pay an extra-care when I draw hair. I can spend hours on a character hair, there are never enough strands or highlights ^^;;
Thanks a lot for the great comment about my art ♥
3rd-Oct-2011 09:50 am (UTC)
♥ ♥ ♥

You already know how wonderful I think this stuff is, bb. You were a joy to work with. You perpetually amaze me. Of these pieces, I think my absolute favourite is the one of Sam looking in the mirror and Cas looking back, but I adore them all. You are stunningly talented. I love your use of halos to designate where the grace is being carried -- I thought that was excellently done here. And you know I love your chibis too. ;)

Thank you so much for all the time you spent drawing these things. I'm so glad you liked my story and so glad we got paired up! :D

I think my absolute favourite is the one of Sam looking in the mirror and Cas looking back, but I adore them all.
Thank you ^^ I think that the mirror one is my favorite too with "At last". Do you know that Artmetica guessed on what kind of art I was working on only because I said on twitter "Drawing people in front of a mirror is hard"? She tweeted back and told me she was imagining an art with Sam looking at his reflection in the mirror and Cas' being this reflection. This girl is a psychic. I don't know how she guessed! xD

I love your use of halos to designate where the grace is being carried
I'm really happy you liked it because I have a tendency to exaggerate a bit with gradients and big halos in my art recently. ^^;

I'm so glad you liked my story and so glad we got paired up! :D
It was a pleasure and I LOVED your fic! I wanted to grab your story the day I saw this sentence about Sam being Cas' vessel in authors' check in post ^^
Thank you so much for everything, I had a lot of fun ^^

J'ai la sensation que tu t'es bien éclatée sur ce big bang, non ? ;D J'ai téléchargé le zip parce que je ne sais pas quand j'aurai le temps de lire l'histoire. Je regarderai tes dessins plus en détail à ce moment-là mais je peux déjà te dire que j'apprécie que Sam semble être largement présent pour illustrer une fic D/C ! Tout le reste, à commencer par le gif, est mignon tout plein ;)
4th-Oct-2011 09:21 am (UTC)
"Eclatée", le mot est faible ^^ Ca a été la fête au village pendant plus d'un mois. Je ne pensais pas que je finirais à temps mais j'y suis arrivée finalement :D
Sam est très présent dans l'histoire, il était donc normal que je le mette dans mes dessins et puis, en tant que bonne "wincester", si il y a moyen de caser Sam quelque part, je le fais xD
Merci beaucoup pour ton commentaire très sympa sur mes dessins.
Je suis suis sure que tu apprécieras la fic ^^

I NEED TO GO READ THE FIC BUT I CAN'T STOP LOOKING AT THE ART IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL *___*
4th-Oct-2011 09:23 am (UTC)
I NEED TO GO READ THE FIC BUT I CAN'T STOP LOOKING AT THE ART IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL *___*

WELL YOU SHOULD DEFINITELY STOP LOOKING AT THE ART AND GO READ THE FIC BECAUSE THE STORY IS GREAT! WHAT ARE YOU STILL DOING HERE, YOU SHOULD ALREADY BE AT OBSTINATRIX'S MASTER POST ^o^

Thank you!! ♥
3rd-Oct-2011 11:28 am (UTC)
haven't had anytime to read the fic but I had time to look at the art and IT IS OH SO WONDERFUL!!!!!! WOW!

I totally can't believe how talented you are!
4th-Oct-2011 09:29 am (UTC)
Thank you so much! ♥
I'm sure you are going to enjoy the fic, it's really great. I hope you'll manage to find some time to finally read it \o/

OoOooOooh!! I love your kogepan icon! It's so cute!
3rd-Oct-2011 11:54 am (UTC)
You. Are. Divine...
Gods I've had this page opened for hours, I'm still staring at these now when I should be working XD

I think the most beautiful thing I see in this is the way you paint Sam. You're always very good at painting all the characters, and Sam seems to be the character you always draw so perfectly... ^^ ♥

Our Bodies, Possessed by Light - Awesome cover! I like Sam's hair, and that we can see Dean through the gears, such wonderful details! :D
Jimmy dies on a Thursday - Awww Dean... T-T May I say again how well you always paint faces? No? I don't take "no." It's Perfect, Marvelous!!!
Amazing Grace - I like this one so much, everything looks so bright! ;D And that's a Yes, Cas!
The Man in the Mirror - Aaaaa Cas looks so perfect here, and I like his tie and the halo ^o^ Thank you for letting me take a peek of this one earlier!
Me and you (and you) - OMG you painted WIIIIINGS! This one is so heart-warming, the boys look so happy together! ^^ ♥ ♥ ♥ I love Cas' expression ;D
You Can't Hide in My Own Head - Awwwww I wanna hug poor little Cas! >_< And this is a very effective concept/visualization!
At Last - I... There is not enough words. This one is my favourite and might be the most beautiful D/C page I've ever seen. I love Cas in the second panel so much with his sleeves rolled-up, it's my phone background now XD And the third panel, WOW he looks so pretty!!! *_* T-T *_*
I like to feel things, Human things - Hell yeah! This one is so sweet and sexy and their skin looks so smooth I want to touc- Umm... XD

Great job with the animation, banners, and dividers too (I like your chibi Cas)!
Ma'am, you always put so much care and detail into your work, it's very admirable! ^^

I am so, SO glad you participated in DCBB; you're such a treasure in the fandom! Thank you, thank you so much!!! Your artworks always put stars in my eyes and now you painted so much D/C in a single post...! This is me right now, and probably all D/C fans who just saw this art post -> O(≧∇≦)O
Now I have to go read the fic!
5th-Oct-2011 08:36 am (UTC)
Gods I've had this page opened for hours, I'm still staring at these now when I should be working XD
I didn't know I could be responsible for the drop of productivity in an office somewhere on the other side of the world. Now I know how the economic crisis started... ^^

I think the most beautiful thing I see in this is the way you paint Sam.
He's the easiest to draw ^^ He doesn't have this very particular bridge on his nose like Dean and those big BIG blue and sad eyes like Cas. Jared has a face for artists and even more, he has a face for comics. I'm working on my h/C bingo in a very comic style and when I draw Sam it doesn't really take time to have the features right. Dean on the other hand...

- Our Bodies, Possessed by Light: You noticed Dean between the gears! I'm so happy ^^ I drew him there but I wasn't sure somebody would notice him or not ^^;;
- Jimmy dies on a Thursday: Poor Dean, huh? I didn't put a warning for character!death because the title is quite self explanatory and because Cas' isn't really dead after all xD
- Amazing grace: This scene is the reason why I grabbed obstinatrix's story during the fic claim. She posted in the authors' check in this sentence about Sam being Cas' vessel and from this moment, I was SO excited.
- The Man in the mirror: You are a psychic. I still don't know how you managed to guess what the hell I was drawing just thanks to ONE tweet xD I had the biggest laugh that day ^^
- Me and you (and you): Yes, I painted wings!! I love painting wings but I never really have the occasion to do it! In this drawing you have the whole package: wings and halo \o/
- You Can't Hide in My Own Head: My mum wants a PVC figure of chibi!Cas. Too bad I'm not good at 3D art :/ I tried to find a way to represent cas' soul without it being a big ball of light. I wanted people to visualize Cas, so I turned him into this cute thing wandering into Sam's body ^^
- At Last: This one...god this one >< It DROVE ME NUTS!! I drew Cas in the second panel twice. There was always something wrong with the light or with his mouth or with...something xD I'm so glad you liked it because it wasn't very easy to draw :/
- I like to feel things, Human things: I wanted to go for a page with 2 or 3 panels but I kept it simple instead to keep the focus on their skins...Yummy.

Ma'am, you always put so much care and detail into your work, it's very admirable! ^^
I'm a detail freak but I'm working on it...

Thank you SO MUCH for your kind words and for always being so enthusiastic about my work!
I'm looking forward your DCBB post ♥
3rd-Oct-2011 12:06 pm (UTC)
Your art is so beautiful and emotive. You can see the care you put into choosing the colours, lighting, and composition. "At last" has to be my favourite, though. There's just something about it.

Thank you so much for creating these wonderful paintings, sketches and banners.
4th-Oct-2011 11:00 am (UTC)
"At last" has to be my favourite, though. There's just something about it.
This one drove me nuts, there were so many panels, so many layers and characters. I had to redrew Cas' twice in the second panel because I couldn't get the face right :/
Never mind because if it's not complicated, I'm not happy ^^;;

Thanks a lot for the great comment about my art post ♥
3rd-Oct-2011 12:08 pm (UTC)
The art is absolutely amazing. ♥♥♥
4th-Oct-2011 09:30 am (UTC)
Thank you very much! ♥♥♥
3rd-Oct-2011 12:13 pm (UTC)
wow I think #3 is my favorite ♥
4th-Oct-2011 09:31 am (UTC)
I think you are one of the only one to love this one. Everybody preferred the one with Sam in front of the mirror. :)
Thank you so much for the great comment about my art ♥
3rd-Oct-2011 12:25 pm (UTC)
This is too beautiful for words. What a wonderful job!
4th-Oct-2011 09:32 am (UTC)
Thank you so much for such an amazing feedback about my art ♥
3rd-Oct-2011 12:28 pm (UTC)
Oh, wow. Everything here is completely gorgeous. ♥ The amount of work you put in is impressive. Really fab!
4th-Oct-2011 09:32 am (UTC)
I have a tendency to take my fandom work a bit too seriously ^^;;
Thank you so much for such an amazing feedback about my art ♥
I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
3rd-Oct-2011 12:37 pm (UTC)
I only took a quick peek at some of them (I haven't read the fic yet--don't want to get spoiled), but the ones I did look at (the NSFW ones--girl's gotta have her priorities!), I absolutely LOVE! I can't wait to look at them all. Fabulous work as usual. ;) My favorite artist and favorite writer working together is pretty much a dream come true. I ship it. ;)

xo
4th-Oct-2011 09:35 am (UTC)
(the NSFW ones--girl's gotta have her priorities!
I can't blame you, when there are NSFW art, I tend to go and see it first xD I can't help it, I'm too curious to see what's behind the warning.
I'm sure you are going to enjoy the fic, it's really great. I hope you'll manage to find some time to finally read it \o/

Thank you so much for the great comment about my work ♥
3rd-Oct-2011 12:54 pm (UTC)
Oh my goodness!

I can't even. <3

*flail*

I skimmed over the main images until I've read the fic but the BANNERS and the DIVIDERS.

The master post banner is genius, and beautiful. I really can't say much other than lots of keysmashing. <3

I am in awe of your talent, all of these make me so warm and fluffys! <3

AMAZING JOB, you should be so proud! *SMISH*
4th-Oct-2011 09:38 am (UTC)
I'm sure you are going to enjoy the fic, it's really great. I hope you'll manage to find some time to finally read it \o/
I had a lot of fun drawing the banners and the dividers. It should have been something more "adult" but in the middle the process, obstinatrix and I decided to go chibies, I can't even tell you why ^^
Thanks a lot for the great comment about my art post ♥
3rd-Oct-2011 12:58 pm (UTC)
These are just all so amazingly beautiful. I don't know how you do it, but your art just makes me want to weep tears of joy.

Every. Damn. Time.

After MUCH consideration and deliberation, I just can't stop going back to #5. It encompasses the entire concept of [info]obstinatrix's story, yet so very much more. ♥ ♥ ♥
4th-Oct-2011 11:08 am (UTC)
Your icon with Cas and this rainbow at the background is hilarious. It's so psychedelic xD

After MUCH consideration and deliberation, I just can't stop going back to #5.
It took me time to figure out how I was going to show in one drawing how Castiel was in Sam's body and how Dean is dealing with it. It was also the occasion to draw wings and a halo. I have a halo!kink, I can't help it. Guilty pleasure ^^;;

Thanks a lot for the great comment about my art post ♥
3rd-Oct-2011 01:16 pm (UTC)
I'm always completely in awe when I see your pictures.

Really, it's hard for me to come up with anything to say to you, except "WOW!".
4th-Oct-2011 09:38 am (UTC)
"WOW" is already very kind and good! I'm perfectly fine with it you know ^^
Thanks a lot for the great comment about my work ♥
3rd-Oct-2011 01:34 pm (UTC)
I freaking love you! This is so damn amazing! I can't wait to get home to see this on my computer. Awesome job!
4th-Oct-2011 11:11 am (UTC)
Ah, you, you are writing me from your smartphone :)
I hope you are gonna enjoy the art once at home ^^
Thanks a lot for your comment ♥
3rd-Oct-2011 01:55 pm (UTC) - Vive toi
Oui vive toi chère merveilleuse, talentueuse, géniale, toi (et wow mais je découvre en 2 jours 3 merveilleuses artistes FRANÇAISES sur LJ, la vie est belle...).

Je viens évidemment de tomber sur ton boulot sur la fic d'Obs, et je suis juste restée scotchée *.*
Je m'en vais explorer le reste dès que j'ai le temps, mais sache déjà que je suis amoureuse de ton Catiel (TOUS, et le chibi est juste... nyaaah).

Bref BRAVO et à bientôt !
4th-Oct-2011 11:20 am (UTC) - Re: Vive toi
et wow mais je découvre en 2 jours 3 merveilleuses artistes FRANÇAISES sur LJ, la vie est belle...
Ah? Juste par curiosité dis-moi qui ^^ On n'est pas très très nombreuses sur LJ. La majorité des artistes sont américaines :)

Je m'en vais explorer le reste dès que j'ai le temps
Vas-y, ne te gène pas et explore parce que mon fan art master post n'a pas été mis à jour depuis des lustres et avec les problèmes de LJ en ce moment, j'ai la flème de m'y mettre car je sens que je vais casser l'ordi.

Merci pour ton commentaire très gentil sur mon DCBB ♥
3rd-Oct-2011 02:05 pm (UTC)
omg your art is so gorgeous! and chibi!cas is adorable! <333
4th-Oct-2011 11:12 am (UTC)
Thank you so much for the great comment about my art post in general and my chibi!cas in particular ♥
3rd-Oct-2011 02:11 pm (UTC)
These are amazing!
4th-Oct-2011 09:47 am (UTC)
Thank you so much for the great comment about my art ♥
3rd-Oct-2011 02:17 pm (UTC)
These are such spectacular pieces, I really don't know which is my favorite! You have a particularly beautiful way of drawing Cas. The chibis are adorable as well. :)
5th-Oct-2011 08:40 am (UTC)
Thank you so much for this great comment about my art post in general and Chibi!Cas in particular ^^ I wasn't very sure about this idea so I'm glad that people loved it ♥
3rd-Oct-2011 02:20 pm (UTC)
Oh.

My.

Days.



These are... beautiful. Absolutely fantastic in every single imaginable way.

My mind is just blown.
5th-Oct-2011 08:45 am (UTC)
Your comment with this icon is just perfect. I think it's my favorite scene from "The French mistake" particularly when Misha pushes the make-up artist away from him xD
Thank you for your great comment and for enjoying my post so much ♥
3rd-Oct-2011 02:26 pm (UTC)
There's just so much to see and enjoy and admire, I don't know where to begin so I'll just say YOU SO VERY WIN! You are the total package, lady. I can't WAIT to read the fic now (but I must because I have so damned much stuff to to but it's on my short list.) *huggggsssss!*
5th-Oct-2011 10:49 am (UTC)
I'm sure you are going to enjoy the story a lot! It's great and it inspired me so much to draw all these drawings :D I had a lot of fun, particularly when I drew the chibies.
Thank you for your great comment and for enjoying my post so much ♥
*HUGS TOO*
3rd-Oct-2011 02:39 pm (UTC)
There aren't words to express the sheer amount of epic joy I feel over each and every piece here. You did an incredible job with all of these!

4th-Oct-2011 09:50 am (UTC)
There aren't words to express the sheer amount of epic joy I feel over each and every piece here
Don't worry, these words are perfect, I'm perfectly fine with it :D
Thank you so much for the amazing feedback about my art ♥
I really love your icon, is it a digital painting or a manip? Either way, I love it ^^
