Blood will Flow

A long, long time ago, Marvel Trumps Hate 2020 had an auction to raise money for charity.  The Marvel Art Party on Discord put together a package deal of 9 artists, of which I was one. We were won by the dynamic duo, Mystrana and Greywrites, and after much faffing and deliberation about what to do, I finally managed to finish my offering! Mystrana and Greywrites were happy for us to share with the world, so you can check all the fills in the AO3 collection.

Without further ado, I present Witch Bucky and his familiar, Alpine the cat, flying over some medieval city, in a far distant and happy AU.
First the SFW version with pants


And the NSFW version minus pants

The naked except for boots version came first, pants were added digitally!

After finally making the decision about what to draw, the process was pretty simple.
I had been wanting Bucky to be flying on his broomstick, when I saw some photos taken using a special lens which showed the scene in a kind of inverted global view. I also looked at medieval maps with the building drawn in street view style, and decided to combine the two ideas for the background.
Here's the aerial view without Bucky and co.

It's drawn in pencil, inked then watercoloured. The paper was round but wouldn't fit on the scanner so it got cropped into an ellipse. 😂
Bucky was drawn and painted on a separate piece of watercolour paper then I mashed the two scanned paintings together digitally. I adjusted the colours to reflect the actual colours as the scans leach a lot of the vibrance out. Other than that, there's no digital interferrence with the traditional art.
Here's the Bucky painting with his basket/sack of companions. Up to you whether he or Alpine have bewitched the actual Avengers or Bucky's made the plushies for his cat to play with. Either way, little Plushy Cap is happy to hold onto Bucky's finger...😍

A chance to draw other characters for a change! Yes, it's marvel_bang time again, with art for flipflop_diva's Blood is Redder. I loved the opportunity to explore Natasha Romanov, and this story is really focused on her. Story link HERE or click on the banner!

Art post on AO3

Just the one picture, and not too spoilery without the context. Nat and Steve, talking in Steve's kitchen.

This one is a team challenge, with author gottalovev and fellow artist dragonk. Story link HERE. dragonk's adorable art is HERE.
I only managed one picture for this, but I don't think it's too spoilery.
Here's a teaser anyway, just in case folk want to read the story first.

My second spn_cinema. It just had to be done, right? Jared as Conan, Jensen as the very annoyed not-so-helpless maiden.


And here they are, in all their glory. NB that includes manly bare torso and pale bare buttocks, so maybe considered NSFW.( Is this safe for work? IDK... )

Spoilers ahoy - obviously.

I haven't seen too many spoilers for either the ending or any future epsiodes, and am trying to remain spoiler-free, so please keep any comments to pure speculating and don't even tell me what's in the trailer for next week - thanks, folks!

Title: Bleeding heart
Artist: amberdreams
Fandom: none
Rating & Category: G, Gen
Medium: Dr. Ph Martin sepia, crimson and scarlet ink with a dash of bronze acrylic paint. Unipin brush pen for the birds.
Notes: Failed on the drawesome prompts again but managed one from SPNtober - heart.

minoanmiss sent me a homemade envelope with two sticker sheets of lovely happy dancing ladies, which I've been finding homes for on my growing collection of watercolour tins. Since I just filled up this tin with a variety of fabulous handmade watercolours from different talented paint-makers on Etsy, here's a couple of photos.


Two of the stickers on this tin - thank you so much, minoanmiss !

And here's a swatch page in my Etchr sketchbook with most of the pans sampled. I'm really loving the heavy granulation of some of these.

Not SPN today, and only one prompt. This one is Labyrinth, for @nikolas_tower's #Obscutober on Instagram.

I'd messed up this page in my sketchbook trying out colours for one of my SPN cinema fills, but then I thought, why not try ink on top of the random watercolours? So yep, there's some inking, then some gouache on top, and Jareth has a blue face, but why not?!

Due to the controversy over Jake Parker, this year I thought I'd do my own SPN version of Inktober. It might be a pleasant distraction from the imminent end of the show. If anyone wants to snag my prompt list for art or maybe a 100 word drabble a day, please feel free!

I probably won't manage a prompt a day but I am aiming to do something for all the prompts, even if I end up combining some!
