These two were done at the mini meet-up we had in Montreal!![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
yue_ix brought her sketchbook and we had crepes and talked porn and doodled. You should see the slashy origami we all made, haha. yue_ix gave me some pointers on how to approach Colin's oddly proportioned faaaaaaace and it helped a ton. She had these awesome reference compilations too, which I TOTALLY used to make this drawing (which comes with a drabble):
The sun rises at his back. Before him, Merlin sleeps soundly with the ease of a child, hands clasped over his stomach and his face belying peace.
Arthur feels anything but peace.
The night before was…well, it was bloody fantastic, to tell the truth. Dull as Merlin appears by day, at night he’s otherworldly. Passionate and sure of himself—ruthless, even. Arthur clenches the muscles of his backside, unsurprised when a dull ache spreads from the place Merlin claimed with long fingers and wicked tongue—claimed with slow, burning thrusts as Merlin took him apart not twice, but three times over.
Arthur shivers. Outside, the sound of conversation filters in through the open window. It’s probably the guards, changing posts as the day begins.
He should rouse Merlin. Hell, Merlin should be rousing him. Instead, Arthur finds himself curling up on his side, unwilling to get up just yet. He places a hand on the touchable stretch of Merlin’s long, pale neck and rests it there, content just to feel warmth under his palm. Merlin’s lashes flutter against his cheek.
It won't last forever. God, he knows that—knows it better than anyone. But if only for a minute or two, he'll allow himself this moment.
Arthur fingers Merlin’s pitch-dark hair, watching the sun slowly rise across Merlin’s glowing skin.

Date: 2009-05-10 05:27 am (UTC)Your skills of an artist are overwhelming, most seriously. This is really beautiful. I love drawings, and this is basically why.
ETA: had to edit, my coherency level was low

Date: 2009-05-10 07:16 am (UTC)As for the drawing/drabble... It is the icing upon an utterly magnificent cake. The details (Merlin's nails! necklace, bracelet), clarity, precision, shading, and texture is all fantastic. ...I am truly enamored by your hands. There is nothing quite like well done hands and nicely shaded knuckles. .. The line of Arthur's body is very nice too: his curled torso, the bent elbow.
Ahhh, I just love your drawings. I am very pleased to see another!
And the drabblereally sets the scene into your head.

I do love the hands, and Merlin's hair, but - and this is possibly silly - I just spent quite an amount of time admiring the blanket and the shapes underneath.
Drawings like this are my favourite kind, with a sort of ease, but oh so pretty! ♥
Colin's oddly proportioned faaaaaaace - OMG, yes! I have no idea how he's still so pretty when seemingly nothing fits together.

Date: 2009-05-10 03:20 pm (UTC)Draw whatever interests you!!! Personally I find digital illustration way out of my league. I'm not a fine artist so you'll probably never see me venture into color for these fanworks, but I do okay with just my mechanical pencil and erasers <3

AND ARTHUR'S PENDANT THING! AND MERLIN'S PEACE BRACELET! AND THE HAIR D: Oh, if I could marry Arthur's hair. Idk, Merlin can have the rest of him, JUST LET ME HAVE THE HAIR.
GAH MERLIN. LOOK AT HIS FACE. And that alongside his 'the SHIT?' face from above, sdfjdgf ♥
NOW I'M EVEN MORE EXCITED. EMAILING YOU BACK RIGHT NOW. BRB.

Date: 2009-05-10 03:25 pm (UTC)Okay not really, I just felt like drawing yesterday. BUT STILL. THIS IS MY COVER LETTER TO YOU: WILL DRAW FOR DERRYERE!FIC. (See: above)
I'M SO OS OS OSOS SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS COLLAB, BTW. YOUR E-MAIL MADE ME ALL ESSPLODY, I'm soooo glad the prompt interests you XD I know how IMPOSSIBLE it is to create stuff for a prompt where you're like eh? so yes, I'm glad the thought of magically-induced, forced awkward/sexual situations tickles your fancy. *nodnod*

The picture perfectly captured that.
