oh my god, you have such gorgeous use of cropping and the right angsty images to create that final collage. I especially love that blue brushwork behind John because it creates a lovely 'light' backdrop. As always, your use of text and font is awesome, I love the impact it makes :D

Thank you bb,and said by you is a huge compliment!♥
The blue brushwork behind John kind of came out by itself,the image was already that color,I've just played a little with the textures!;D

You should read the story,smilla really writes wonderfully!I've made all the crops and cuts that way because in the fic there's a broken mirror so I've created something that reminded me of it!;D

Non so da dove cominciare! :D E non so perchè pensavi di dovermi spiegare questo perchè è così lampante che è ciò che io vedo in quella storia, ciò che ho cercato di esprimere.
Ogni immagine a partire dalla prima è meravigliosa e piena di significato. I colori scuri, l'effetto spezzato come in uno specchio rotto, Castiel! e John!!!! ♥ la sua immagine così grande rispetto a Dean e Sam, espressione del loro inconscio; John che è così importante nella loro vita, sia la sua approvazione sia il suo rispetto, per entrambe, anche se in modo diverso. E allo stesso tempo entrambe sono irragiungibili.
Per non parlare della tua tecnica, che è perfetta, senza alcun difetto. Queste cover mi ricordano un dipinto, sì. L'uso delle textures e dei colori per sottolineare un'espressione come dietro a John, la drammaticità della terza immagine è particolarmente emozionante.
E emozionata sono io per questo meraviglioso regalo! Grazie infinite, Sil. TVTB!

Oh mamma A.,a quanto pare a te non devo spiegare proprio niente!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mi fai paura ora,hai interpretato le mie illustrazioni alla perfezione!Allora...ti piace l'effetto dello specchio rotto?!!?Sono così felice di essere riuscita a trasporre graficamente l'intreccio di idee e sentimenti che questa storia ha creato!Ne sono davvero orgogliosa perchè per me è stato come dipingere,ho "usato" la stessa intimità e sono riuscita a dare lo stesso effetto di un pennello!♥
Le tue fics sono come tele vuote A. e non aspettano altro che essere dipinte,seriously!Grazie per avermi "tentato" la prima volta,ora non smetterò più di creare illustrazioni!;D

Joooooohn!!!!!!!!!!♥♥♥

Thanks for the "shoulder" baby!♥
I should name the graphic with John "speakfree"....what?You don't think it's appropriate?That illustration really speaks free....from my heart to all of you!♥
P.s.The icons didn't come out very good but if you want....just take the graphics and make whatever you want with them!You have my permission!;D

I loved this story so much, and your illustrations are not just beautifully done, they also capture the story for me. It was the image of Dean in the pieces of the mirror that formed the basis for how I felt the story, and you have taken that feeling with all its broken, jagged edges and translated it into art. Smilla's fic deserves the best, and she got it in spades with your beautiful work.
 
posted by [identity profile] animotus.livejournal.com at 01:42pm on 04/02/2009
Awwww thank you very much for stopping by and tell me those wonderful things!♥
Dean and the broken mirror REALLY are the basis for everything,I stubbornly wanted to translate it into my graphics and I'm glad it worked for you!Smilla is such an inspiration for me!Thank you again,I really appreciate this feedback!:D
