What's the concept ?

During the year 2011, I will post one drawing a month (alongside other arts, this won't be my only project) all inspired by a fan fiction. (To cut a long story short, it is going to be one month, one drawing, one calendar wallpaper). It's a way to pay tribute to all the authors and stories I enjoyed in the past few years. 

What about the fic ?

Here is everything you need to know about this absolutely awesome fic that maybe two people in the fandom didn't read yet...(taken from [livejournal.com profile] felisblanco 's page)


Title: The Doors Of Time
Author:
[livejournal.com profile] felisblanco 

Pairings: Jensen/Jared (eventually)

Rating: PG-13 for Part 1. NC-17 for part 2
Word count: 121 000 words

Summary:
It’s not like he doesn’t try to fit in and make friends, he really does. It just seems like nothing he does is good enough for them. If he smiles they blink. If he speaks they stare. And whenever they see him coming they get this panicked look in their eyes like they want to run away and they don’t even know why.Jensen knows why. It’s the same thing that makes his dad worry and his mom cry. That makes Nana tell his parents he’s going to Hell, not even caring that he can hear her.

It’s what makes him ‘weird’.

Timestamps ?

A lot!! Check out [livejournal.com profile] felisblanco 's Doors of Time tag to see all the timestamps available.

This fic is for...

People who like magic, invisible cats, modern fairy tales, love stories, and of course music! 

This fic is definitely not for...

People who expect to see Dolph Lundgren appear from nowhere with a big machine gun, loosing it in the battle and ending up in a bloody mano a mano fight with Jensen (who happened to be an undercover CIA agent working with Sylvester Stallone). Not recommended also for those who hope that Jensen's piano is haunted by the spirit of a dead pirate who will decapitate Chad Michael Murray with a giant sword. 

What about your drawing ?

In The Doors of Time, music is definitely a character on its own . As I wanted to show the same thing in my drawing, I imagined music notes running away from a Rachmaninoff's score like a bunch a uncoordinated and panicked small characters. The Piano Concerto #3 in D minor being considered as one of the most complexe pieces of music for piano, I guessed that the notes would be more than reluctant to be part of the adventure and that they would try to escape as quickly as possible. As everybody tries to exit the score at the same time, it's a real (musical) mess 

What is funny is that Felis had a completely different interpretation when she saw my drawing but that's another story...


Tools of the trade ?

Photoshop CS + Painter Essential 3

Next wallpaper ?

At the end of January!


Hope you liked the calendar!
See you soon

Wheee!! You posted! And I overslept and missed it. But I put up the timestamp now and I really hope you like it. (I might have made some last minute changes to go better with your vision. *g*)

This is so amazing. I'm flailing like crazy here. Wheeee! I can't wait to see what the other months will bring us, I know those authors will be just as excited as I am. *hugs you hard*

Ps. Your "This fic is definitely not for" part made me giggle like crazy. Dolph Lundgren? Now wouldn't that have been something? *g*

Wheee!! You posted!
24 hours in advance (I even forget to post the reference pictures I used for the art XD ). I was just so excited to post the wallpaper that for once I didn't even write as usual my technical rambling for Photoshop Users (they will survive, I am sure ^^)

But I put up the timestamp now and I really hope you like it.
I am going to read it right away, expect a comment from me in about...I don't know about the length of the timestamp...XD but, after I read it ^o^

This is so amazing. I'm flailing like crazy here
Awesome ^o^ Glad you loved the wallpaper so much and THANK YOU for giving me the permission to draw arts for your wonderful fic in the first place! I had a lot of fun working on that one, particularly the little notes of music running everywhere and trying to escape Rachmaninoff :D

Your "This fic is definitely not for" part made me giggle like crazy. Dolph Lundgren? Now wouldn't that have been something? *g*
That would have been the most incredible twist of all time. People expect Jared and Jensen to have happily ever afters after the kissing scene in the Park but no, Jensen must fight with Dolph Lundgren first (or Jason Statham, I am not picky ^^). Jensen who of course, wasn't a shy musician but a CIA agent working undercover.

I think that now you understand why I am a fan artist and not an author. My readers would be a little bit surprised by my plot twists...-_____-

Thx again Felis ♥
