ART: Finding Your H(e)aven (SPN_J2 BB, Dean/Sam)
My lovelies, it's Big Bang time again! This post, made for this year's ![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
spn_j2_bigbang, marks not only my first participation in this specific Big Bang, but also my first artworks for a Wincest story. I managed to snaffle the story "Finding Your H(e)aven" (LJ Masterpost) by the wonderful winterwolke. As it turned out in our first contact, we both are German native speakers, so communicating was a lot of fun (not that conversing with you all in English isn't!). We really had a good way of talking to each other, discussing not only the story itself (which I really love to pieces), but different other things concerning the BB as well. Steffie, thank you for having me as your artist!! *padahugs*
And now - THE ARTWORKS!
As I said in my opening paragraph, I really love the story to pieces. I have read probably a ton of Wincest stories over the years, and I most likely have several favorites among them, but this story captured my interest for (at least) three things:
(a) it's set in an ABO world, meaning we have Alphas, Betas and Omegas (which has a certain fascination to me)
(b) the boys are not the hunters we know from the show, but FBI agents hunting a special kind of bad guys
(c) among others, Jody Mills, Benny Lafitte and Charlie Bradbury, three favorite side characters of mine, are part of it
COVER:
Note: Cas is here on the cover, but pretty much non-existent in the story (he gets mentioned once or twice, but that's about it). I only used his pic since I had the space free (and I didn't want to put another, more spoilery pic there)
CHAPTER HEADERS:
General note about the headers: the background images all stand for one of the locations we visit in that chapter, but are NOT the exact location. Chapter 11 has two headers - one of them is a bit spoilery for the story; and there's a reason why you see "Negan" on the last header (you'll see when you read the story;) )
END PIC:
As soon as I had finished reading the story, this image came into my head. And of course, my mind immediately provided the perfect pic for it - from the Season 10 Special/Gag Reel (I honestly can't remember right now!). Only downside when I finally found a version in quite some good quality - how do I get Cas out of the picture? XD As you can see, I found a way (and learned a new technique to delete background out of a pic on top of it)
ICONS:
You know the drill by now, right? XD
BONUS PICS:
The original pics for Benny's Diner and the most important postcard in Sam Winchester's life XD
NOTES & CREDITS:
Images:
Google Image Search/own stock
(apologies for the rather vague credits here, but I went through so many pics that I really lost track where I got which one; except for the background pics - these all are from Google)
Fonts:

Well, that's it! And now, please head over to read the story (and leave some love for my author!)

(Also, I'm glad I'm not the only one who loses track of her resources while arting, lol. I kind of fly into art-ing mode and start snagging caps from google searches and screencap websites, textures and fonts from respective website collections, stock pics, etc, leaving thank you's where I can. XD)
