White Collar fanart (illustration for a fic)

[sholio]

I haven't done fanart in awhile, but I had to do an illustration for attackfish's wonderful dragon!Neal AU Spitfire. If you haven't read the story, you really should read it before viewing the art, because it does spoil the ending quite hugely -- and if you haven't read it, you should! My rec is here - it's sweet and funny and gently magical, and just all-around wonderful.


Anyway, if you haven't read the story, this won't make a whole lot of sense unless you know that it's a series of AU vignettes from seasons 1-3 in which Neal is a dragon, and when in dragon-shape, he grows or shrinks depending on the size of his treasure-hoard. Understandably enough, in season three he's really huge. And then Elizabeth gets taken in "Countdown", and, well ... this happens.

That is adorable! <3

And your skill at drawing hands has me in awe. ;)

Thank you! Awww, what a perfect icon for this. :D And thanks - I do love drawing hands; the only problem is that I'm not quite sure they really came out looking like guy hands, since obviously I am using my own hands as a model (in combination with screenshots of Peter's hands). But I tried!

Well, I think it looks perfectly masculine. ;) But I know full well how focusing on a picture you're drawing for too long makes you hyper aware of any shortcomings (kind of like with, say, focusing too long on a story). :P
