fanart: Best Laid Plans illustration

Genre/Fandom: Pinky and the Brain
Characters/Pairings: Brain/Pinky
Media: fine liner pen with indian ink, digitally colored in GIMP
Notes/comments: This an illustration for the Yuletide 2011 Pinky & Brain story Best Laid Plans by lies_d. I have to say that it is not at all easy logistically to draw these two kissing. First there’s the height difference and then the muzzles get in the way too. Also, this is supposed to be the photo of them that ends up on Facebook in the story and originally wanted to format this to appear as if posted there, like a screenshot with the website logo and such, but I do not have an account and don’t really know how the pages where photos are displayed look for the users. I tried finding screenshots of Facebook walls but they don’t seem to show photos, just comments? So now you just have to imagine it there.

fanart: Methos with a mutant baby

ratcreature — Mon, 10 Oct 2011 23:40:27 +0000

Genre/Fandom: Highlander/X-Men
Characters/Pairings: Methos, mutant baby
Media: acrylics on paper, original ca. 35x45cm; for more detail see this process post
Notes/comments: This is an illustration for Basingstoke’s awesome Highlander/X-Men crossover WIP Unalienable. Among many other things happening, Methos takes care of a mutant baby, carrying her around in a sling: “Methos makes a sandwich with the baby in a sling on his hip. [...] Baby’s skin has flushed up bluer now that she’s feeling better. Her eyes are a bright, piercing pink. Her eyelashes and eyebrows are thick and orange but she doesn’t seem to have any hair on her head or body, not even the normal fine down of a girl’s skin. She looks garish and strange.”

Genre/Fandom: X-Men/Sesame Street

Notes/comments: The XMFC/Sesame Street crossover in my head is still expanding: Hank and Kermit would sing a duet about how it’s not easy to be green or blue.

fanart: another X-Men/Sesame Street doodle

ratcreature — Tue, 06 Sep 2011 00:49:22 +0000

Genre/Fandom: X-Men/Sesame Street
Characters/Pairings: Erik Lehnsherr, Oscar the Grouch, Fluffy, Slimey
Media: pencil
Notes/comments: Another scene from the XMFC/Sesame Street crossover in my head: Erik would visit Oscar’s trash can, and maybe he and Oscar would bond over their misanthropic outlook. But the trash can would also feel really odd to Erik’s metal sensing abilities, because it is larger inside than out, and Erik just can’t figure how this structure works, and maybe it puts him a bit on edge, when the metal in his environment feels wrong. He probably wonders whether escaping through whatever kind of dimensional anomaly leading into “Grouchland” this is, is the monsters’ backup plan should humans decide to round them all up (because of course the first thing Erik noticed, once he resigned himself to Charles dragging him into sets of singing monsters, is the complete lack of security and defensible positions).
