White Collar Big Bang

[sholio]

This year I did art for frith_in_thorns' Big Bang fic (which I also served as an early beta for) and now she's posted it! :D

Hold With All You Have (32K) - this link goes to the story post on DW, which also has links to the various other places where the fic is posted.

It is a wonderful fic; I was so delighted to beta it, and about 2/3 of the way through I hit a scene that made me go "... I HAVE TO DRAW THIS" so I asked if I could be her artist as well. :D

That said, it's an apocafic, so do heed the warnings; there is death and angst and more death. It's a lovely story full of friendship and adventure (and I'm really looking forward to reading the whole thing from the beginning!) but it's also, er, about most of the population dying horribly in a pandemic and the rest struggling to survive in a world gone mad, so obviously that's not going to be everyone's cup of tea.

My art is posted under the cut. The first image is a fairly generic cover; the latter two illustrate a somewhat spoilery scene from later the story. One of these images contains a graphic depiction of dead animals.

These are all gorgeous! I love your coloring of the two illustration, and the cover is totally cover-y! Wow.

Awwww, thank you so much! ♥ ♥ ♥

I had a lot of fun doing this art and I'm so glad people like it.

YOU DREW THE WOLVES! :D That was one of my favorite scenes!

All of these are awesome!

Thank you! :D I loved the wolf scene! That was the part that made me want to illustrate the story, because I could totally visualize it in my head. (I meant to do more illustrations from the fight, but I ran out of time!)

Ooh, that's really nice. The tri-color illustrations really capture the feel of the scene, and the cover art is so atmospheric.

Thank you so much! As soon as I read the wolf scene, I had a really vivid mental image of how to illustrate it (the scribbly style and limited color palette). I'm very glad you like it!
