Spn_J2_Bigbang 2011 - ACE

Spn_J2_Bigbang 2011 - ACE


Welcome to the Art Post for Ace, a fan fiction by[livejournal.com profile] unreckless  that should have been posted for the 2011 [livejournal.com profile] spn_j2_bigbang . Unfortunately, the fic was never posted so everything that's left is the art ^^;; In other words guys, don't ask me for the link to the fic because it doesn't exist.





A big thank you to [livejournal.com profile] maichan , [livejournal.com profile] artmetica  and[livejournal.com profile] wendy  for the moral support during the whole process.

All the arts are available on megaupload (too many arts to be posted separately on image shack)

WARNINGS:
- All the arts are SFW except maybe p.11 of the Soundtrack Arts (Oasis - Don't go Away). The boys are just together fully clothed on a bed but you never know how can Mr. Boss or Mum can react! 
- The soundtrack arts can be spoilery so I advise you to read the story first. They are a kind of retrospective of Jensen's life so beware of spoilers.

You will find in the file:

- The Main Arts: 6 CG paintings.
- The Arts for the soundtrack (download the songs separately below)
- The "small arts" (banners - divider - title + two bonus arts)
- A Pdf document that will detail the tools of the trade and a WIP (for the Photoshop geeks). You have a spoiler in the PDF but a page will warn you so you can skip the spoilery parts. Keep also in mind that I'm not a native English speaker so, I'm sorry in advance for the mistakes in the Photoshop Rambling.
Download the Artist Soundtrack HERE (an "Author's soundtrack" is also available at the fic master post)

Example of arts:



Voilà!! This is it for Ace
See you at the end of the month with my new calendar wallpaper and on the 4th of August for my second [livejournal.com profile] spn_j2_bigbang  post!

OK I freak out everytime you post anything and I'm gonna do it again XD You did a great job on everything, from the banners, logo, main art, even the bonus art *_*

Poster Art: Jensen's face!! You really captured his likeness and mood with the lighting. The photo/poster behind him is very detailed you can even see the creases O_O My fav part of this pic is Jensen's hands, so perfect! ♥
The Rookies: JARED! O_O *gapes* The coloring is so vivid, and you drew (re-drew!!) very detailed backgrounds. Love their uniform! ^^ ♥ I think this could be my favorite pic, I dunno it's hard ;p
The best year of his life: Hehe Jensen looks really happy here, seems to be the best year of Jensen's life ^^ ♥
Number 66: Ooh! Great likeness comes with an awesome pose too! :D
Here, smile: Jared! ♥_♥ Very nice grayscale/color thing you got here!
Swan Song: Wow! His expression and the pose you chose for this are very fitting *_*

Haven't DL'd the soundtrack yet, but will do after writing this XD
And I love your tutorials! Thank you for including it here! Please keep making them? Would love to take glimpses inside your brilliant mind and techniques, you know a lot about drawing and Photoshop!

When I saw your comment starting by "∑(O_O;)" I thought that someone was writing me comment in Russian or in Greek ^o^

Poster Art: This one drove me nuts. I think I spent one week working on it, dropping it, coming back to it, reworking it. I took care of the hand because they are my weak point. I'm Ok with faces but hands... :/ In addition, I had problem finding a reference picture. I had to put myself in front of a mirror with a box in my hand to have the right position for the fingers.
The Rookies: I agree about the colors being vivid. They are a little bit too flashy now that I look at them. I always exaggerate when it comes to color saturation. I'm gonna go to India and work for the Bollywood industry xD
The best year of his life: I drew this one at the last minute. It should have been a banner and I turned it into a "real art" later :)
Number 66: I found the pose in a Japanese magazine except that the guy was very "petite". I kept the same body position but I changed his body structure to turn a 175cm highschooler playing baseball into a big 195cm American guy like Jared :D
Here, smile: I was afraid that Jared looked a little bit too much like Sam because I used a Spn screencap as a reference picture
Swan Song: here again, I found the perfect pose in a Japanese magazine about baseball except that the guy was in a very good mood and that he was leaving the field after his team had won xD

Haven't DL'd the soundtrack yet, but will do after writing this XD
I hope you will like the songs. They are a bit slow. The songs I chose for my next BB arts are much more Rock n' Roll

And I love your tutorials! Thank you for including it here! Please keep making them?
I have no idea what I'm going to post for my next BB xD The arts will be a bit different because I used, in addition to Photoshop and Painter, Paint Tool SAI :D

Thank you so much for the great comment about my art ♥
I'm sorry I didn't comment on your new D/C art yet. I posted a new Dean art yesterday and I didn't expect to have so MANY comments!! I can't believe it!
