Title: Superheroes suck (or, the unfortunately extraordinary life of Jensen Ackles

Sometimes, Jensen's life is kind of bullshit.

ART

This is my solution to wanting to create "comics" art without actually drawing comics. Also, I confess, I wanted a reason to include that picture of Jensen with the flower in his mouth. I really like how these turned out though. To me they are bright and colourful, and they have the flavour of comics if not the actual execution.








SOUNDTRACK

Credit goes to [livejournal.com profile] cleflink for choosing the songs. I just rushed around last minute to create the covers. The CD covers download link will get you the high quality print jpegs of the covers along with a single pdf that you can print as well.

ICONS

So I totally went overboard on making icons... They are up for grabs for anyone to use. Blah blah credit blah blah. God, it has been years since I have made icons.




NOTES & CREDITS

Well, it feels like I put more effort in to the formatting of the post as opposed the actual art but nevertheless I am proud of both!

[livejournal.com profile] cleflink's story was my first choice because it sounded like such a fun read and I was not disappointed when I got the full story. It had all the themes of a comic but with enough twists to keep things interesting! So firstly, my thanks to [livejournal.com profile] cleflink for such an awesome story to work with. If you haven't all ready, go read!

Second, thanks, of course, go to [livejournal.com profile] wendy and [livejournal.com profile] thehighwaywoman for running the challenge. I think it will be a sad day in fandom when the Big Bangs finally stop being run (hopefully never!)

For anyone interested, the font used is Komika Hand from www.fontsquirrel.com.

Oh that is great!! I am such a sucker for the big comic book big dot screen effect. And the storybook frames are perfect. Really nice feel to the whole series. I've put all the art into my word file. Can't miss that while reading.
Lovely job.
