Graphics post For j2_everafter

[apieceofcake]

For The J2 Disney Challenge you could team up, so sandymg and I did.

Sandy chose Disney's "The Kid" to write for. Neither of us have actually seen the film though..all I know is that Bruce Willis was in it as I saw the poster..LOL!
Successful, high-powered Russ Duritz has spent all of his incredibly empty life forgetting the child he used to be -- until one day, he meets him face-to-face! Thinking this kid is a hallucination, Russ does everything he can to make him go away. But 8-year-old Rusty, who's anything but happy that he grows up to be a loser without real meaning in his life, can't leave -- at least not yet.


Hope you enjoy her story as much as I did :-)

Time Of Your Life by sandymg.
Summary: Jensen Ackles doesn't need anyone. His marketing job takes up all his time and lasting relationships are a Hallmark invention. So it totally throws him for a loop when his long-lost best friend from childhood shows up. Except. Jensen is nearly thirty -- and Jared is still eight.






I did so many different variations it wasn't easy to settle on final ones.
I have also got some of these in a different size if you want them.

Story Headers:














Wall:






Album:







The album pics:































I also did two more, but THEY ARE BIG SPOILERS FOR THE STORY! so it would be better to read that first.
However if you don't mind being spoiled they are here and here.






Icons:


Thanks to sandymg for putting up with me..she is the organized one and I'm not. LOL!
Some pics came from Google. Screencaps from toxic_caps and Home of the Nutty.
Made in PSP8, Photofunia and Filter Forge.

You do amazing art! The different filters, the coloring, the making-Jensen-Ackles-look-too-impossible-to-be-human bit...

And you make it impossible to pick a favorite :)

So pretty..I have missed you and your art :)

[apieceofcake.livejournal.com]

Thanks Val :-)

Yeah sorry about that..my muse left the building a while ago :-( I struggled with this even though I loved the story!

I think I might try some episode graphics after the ep this week and see what happens.

Lovely pictures! And I love the colors too.
And I liked the movie, because there's a much older hungarian short story from one of my favourite writer what is basicaly the same. Oh, yeah, there's no new things in the storytelling.

Thanks hun! I shall have to watch one day!

xx.

These are so gorgeous! I really like the drawing/pencil sketch effect ones, too. They work really well. Awww, young J2. And looking forward to reading sandy's story, too. Great to see an art post from you again, my friend! ♥

[apieceofcake.livejournal.com]

Thanks Maia :-) I went and looked you know where and got..

"The art is lulzy. The collages are okay, but the photographs give new meaning to the phrase pastede on."

LOL! *shrugs*

Oh yayy for anons, keeping us lolling since 2005.... ;-)

[kamerreon.livejournal.com]

*Fangasms* Those are brilliant! Especially the photos! :D

[apieceofcake.livejournal.com]

Thank you!!

[kasmodia.livejournal.com]

The teenage photos added a very authentic feeling to the fic. You two did a great job together - kudos!

[apieceofcake.livejournal.com]

Thank you!!

[honscot.livejournal.com]

Your artwork is gorgeous. Fabulous job. I really love the old-photo effect, and I'm extremely fond of the guys together as teenagers. :) I'm going to need several of those icons; will credit. Thanks for everything. Very well done!

[apieceofcake.livejournal.com]

Thanks very much :-)

[aythia.livejournal.com]

I loved this art, the one I fell for the most is the one where it looks like Jensen is resting in Jared's arms... god, they should have been together as teens, so damn pretty together!

Amazing work here :)

[apieceofcake.livejournal.com]

Thanks very much :-)

[j2disney-mod.livejournal.com]

LOVE THESE! They do such a great job of telling the story through photos. You did great work at bringing a real feeling of nostalgia for their earlier years and the wall art is just gorgeous!!!

Thank you so much for your fantastic contribution to the challenge! ♥

[apieceofcake.livejournal.com]

Thanks very much :-)

[jolietjones.livejournal.com]

The artwork for this story really blew me away. Srsly - so beautiful, well done.

[apieceofcake.livejournal.com]

Thanks very much :-)

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

Your artwork is *beautiful*, and added so much to my enjoyment of the story!

[apieceofcake.livejournal.com]

Thank you :-)

[no-ones-sleep.livejournal.com]

As all the others before me said- this is some amazing artwork. It really added to the authenticity of the great story, so thank you very much!

You said we might ask for different sizes- may I ask if there are bigger sizes available for the story header No 1 (the one with the title on it) and then from "the album pics" the No 3,4,5 & 8? I like how they look together so much, you really chose very matching pics here, and I can´t decide whether I like the photo manip or the pencil one more, sorry!!! I hope I don´t bother you here- but if so, just say so, it´s okay!

[apieceofcake.livejournal.com]

Thank you glad you liked :-)

Would you like to give me your email? I'll then have a look and send you what I've got.
