I had so much fun working with jdl71 yet again. It seems like we keep claiming each other's works accidentally. I think its probably because we're so comfortable working with each other. She's awesome and I love her.

The story she wrote this year is simply great. Yet another example of fine writing from her. Do check out her story and give her some love for writing a story as beautiful as this one and letting us enjoy it all for free. She's amazing for doing that. Let's appreciate her. Much love, Jen.

Thank you for trusting me with you story once again. Link to story is here.

Warnings for spoilers. Advised to read the fic before you view this post. Shout out to the mods spndystopiabang for opening up this challenge for another round.

Note: Images found on Google. All credit goes to original photographers for the original photos. The edits made are purely for entertainment purposes only and intend no harm. I don't claim any copyright over them.

1. The Banner:

When it came to making the cover banner, I knew I had to convey the mood and the theme of the fic so that it could intrigue the reader. The rain reflects the somber mood of the fic. The huge wooden box conveys the dystopian setting which piques the interest of the reader and a lawyer Jared standing in his yard - a little annoyed and unsure of himself. It's going to be a wild ride. I had to find a perfect background setting for the backyard because the fic opens up with Jared finding a gift wrapped in a wooden box waiting for him in his backyard. It is written so subtly and we don't even predict that the story is about take a turn. A few artistic filters, adjusting color tones and edit tools used in PhotoscapeX and the banner was ready!

 

2. The Scene with surprise inside the wooden box.

The story narrates a wooden box also known as omega box where an Omega is wrapped in and gifted to their alpha. The narration is so touching that I couldn't resist creating this piece. Omega Jensen - obedient, fearful and miserable - waiting for his alpha, all cramped up in the backyard, getting wet in the rain is something so touching to me so I added the filters and created bubbles and water droplets that could give the idea that Jensen is soaked wet, looking up at Jared, a little hopeful and a little fearful. I had to get the perspective angle right. Its still not 100% but I tried. A huge wooden box with Jensen sitting inside. I had to change the facial expressions and use proper tools to get the effect right. Used 'Night' filter and proper shades to indicate that it's dark when Jared find finally finds him. I struggled getting the position right for Jensen to actually look like he's stuffed all cramped in the box. Had to use multiple tools to adjust the body imagery.

 

3. The scene in Jared's office.

So, the tradition is for the omegas to kneel in front of their alpha in public places. Jared refuses to be stereotypical and cares for Jensen. He gives him a pillow so his knees wouldn't hurt and he also bars anyone else from disrespecting Jensen. He's such a caring alpha. So when Jen requested me to create this scene, I went for it. Jared in a heated argument with another alpha lecturing him about treating omegas in traditional way and Jared disagreeing with them. The expression on Jared's face of that being a little annoyed and tense with Jensen looking up to him, a controlled but hopeful look on his face. Again, did the facial expressions using the tools in PhotoscapeX. The background of office was created using stock stickers in Picskit.

 

4. The scene with Jared and Jensen finally kissing.

I don't have to explain anything. It's just them finally acknowledging their feelings for each other and giving in to their desires. It;s just such a 'Awww' moment. I have to admit though creating this piece was hard. Took me hours to get everything right. For this scene I used 'PicsArt' and 'Photo Director' as the tool.

 

5. Happily Ever After.

The scene with a smiling Jared looking at Jensen playing with their kid in the backyard is so endearing. This was the first piece I actually created for the story. A happy Jensen and a smiley Jared is the best thing ever. This was created using 'PicsArt' because I had to get the backyard setting right.

 

6. Chapter Headers: A clash of world for the non traditional Alpha and a resigned Omega and their journey to finding their happily ever after. The colors reflect the moods of the character. Red-orange -ish for the angry, tense, hot headed and yet loving Alpha and the calming blue for the docile, miserable and hopeful Omega and the ring of fire reflecting the fiery passion between them.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

That's it folks! Hope you enjoyed this post! Please do let me know how did you like this set of artwork? I'd love to read your comments. Thanks once again. I had a blast creating these.

This is my second submission for this challenge. A huge thanks to Tammy for trusting me with her fic. She had a specific visual listed that she wanted the artist to illustrate. The image of Jensen singing at Jared's favorite coffee shop simply melted me. I just had to grab it. Here's how I came up with the final banner.


1. Step 1 was to find a perfect background of a coffee shop that has a warm look. Google has been my rescuer in finding the perfect BG to suit the story.

The manip I created for [livejournal.com profile] jillmariej 's story His Best Intentions. It's so beautiful I can't get enough of it. Thank you so much for creating a beautiful Royalty AU.

The scene described is of Prince Jensen walking down the streets while townsfolk especially women gather around to get a glimpse.

I shamelessly copied Jensen's outfit from Google and did some changes to give it poroper look. The original color of the coat was purple so had to use Splash to change it. Did some changes with contrast, hue and added Jensen's face from my cutouts and Prince Jensen was ready.

I once again admit to shamelessly copying cartoon and Disney characters from Google and creating their cut outs.

Finally I had to add the sky backdrop to give it a complete look. I used Cartoonised effect for the manip. Threw in the text and it was ready. Hope you enjoy it. Please visit [livejournal.com profile] jillmariej 's journal to read the awesome story, "His Best Intentions"

This was the original story I claimed for [livejournal.com profile] spn_j2_bigbang Initially, I wasn't going to be a part of this whole challenge, but then I observed the claim rounds and saw there were still stories left to be claimed. It intrigued me. When it was open for any artist to claim, a story captured my attention. A story titled Alpha and Omega which I later came to know was written by my dearest friend [livejournal.com profile] jdl71


I was dreading initially, because even if I claimed a story, it didn't mean I was a good artist. I just claimed it on a whim. I was terrified that somehow I'd manage to disappoint my author. After all, who'd want an art from a newbie! But, it was pretty anti-climatic as when I told my author about my insecurities, she immediately came to my rescue. She calmed me down and cleared my doubts and helped me get comfortable in my role as her artist. We even had a laugh about how her suggestions were almost like me being her personal shopper. It was so much fun!! So, thank you Jen, for everything and most importantly trusting me with your story! You were the first person who gave me a chance to let me dive into the world of fan art. I hope you guys enjoy this just as much as we had fun creating it.
