What's the concept ?

During the year 2011, I posted one drawing a month (alongside other art, it wasn't my only project) all inspired by a fan fiction. (To cut a long story short, it was one month, one drawing, one calendar wallpaper). It was a way to pay tribute to all the authors and stories I enjoyed in the past few years.)...but now it's over! This wallpaper is the last installment of the series 

What about the fic ?

Future Tense is a great Sam & Dean fic written by [livejournal.com profile] selecasharp. Here's everything you need to know about this great SD story where the boys have to deal with the Apocalypse and Tree Spirits  :

Title: Future Tense
Genre: Angst/Drama
Rating: NC-17
Spoilers: Set during season 5 (post episode 5:14 "My Bloody Valentine") and ends the apocalypse, but no spoilers for episodes past 5:14.
Warnings: Wincest, Lucifer messing with Sam via dreams (mild dubcon-type messing, mostly kissing), ANGST
Word count: 31,256 total
Summary: While on a case, Sam and Dean are given a vision of the future - a future in which they've stopped the apocalypse and are now, apparently, involved. Dean's convinced that it's another trick and insists that they forget it, but Sam can't let it - any of it - go.

What about your drawing?

This scene is at the beginning on the story, in the first pages. It represents Sam's meeting with a Tree Spirit while on a hunt. This meeting will change the brothers' lives forever.

A reference picture for the Fairy?

Absolutely. If you love browsing the Deviant Art stock, you certainly recognize Mizzd, owner of the Mizzd Stock. Her stock is really awesome to find reference pictures for creating fantasy art. Highly recommended 

December already? Will you carry on this calendar project next year?

I am sorry but no. ^^;; It's definitely too much work. I don't know how I managed to be on time (practically) every month  It was A LOT of fun to do but I am going to stop here and to concentrate on challenges and exchanges.

I will do a last post to post again the 12 wallpapers without the calendars at the bottom. Well, the 12...rather 11. I lost the original file for the month of March (A Bleak Understanding in Reverse) so I can't guaranty I will be able to post this one. 

Tools of the trade:

- Photoshop CS4
- Painter 12

Next projects?

- I will post in December a drawing for [livejournal.com profile] 50states_spn, a challenge for people to create fanwork (fic or art) with an emphasis on the local. (food, culture, local myths and legends). I chose the state of Georgia.
- I am going to illustrate a chapter for the [livejournal.com profile] spn_redemption project. (January/February)
- I signed up for [livejournal.com profile] dc_dystopia, a Dean/Castiel challenge focused on dark themes. (I hope to grab a fic with a lot of blood and gore, hé, hé, hé!)
- I also signed up for [livejournal.com profile] worldwide_spn. It will be the occasion to draw the boys in my hometown, Paris. 

Voilà!!!
That's it for this project! I hope you enjoyed the wallpapers that were posted during the year 2011.
