Artist's note: Inspired by your prompt: Where did you get this wound from? and your preferences: Mob AU, fear.
I took my inspiration from old gangster films that were shot in black-and-white and then Technicolor - including Fedora and Tommy Gun. At the same time, I found it interesting to present individual scenes in one overall picture.
Black background and white text as well as white icons stand for the eternal contrast: black and white, light and dark, good and bad. The red color of the finished work of art is more dramatic, underlines the dangerous atmosphere as well as the comic style. The whole thing is reinforced by the extra wide shading of the figures. Or simply put: it looks cool.
The little proverbial light at the end of the alley symbolizes hope. Two shapes approach. Will rescue come for Jared?
Jensen's shirt collar is crisp white and stands out from the picture. A knight in shining armor or a wolf in sheep's clothing?

Black-and-white, red or Technicolor? Which banner do you like best?

Date: 2020-12-13 05:05 pm (UTC)THANK YOU SO MUCHHHHHH!!!! This entire set is gorgeous!
Your inspiration from the movies and the use of the comic style is FANTASTIC! Gosh, I can't pick which I like best. Each one has its points for favorite, I could see each set being used differently in a fic. The light at the end of the alley, so very #AKF, I love that. And the figures at the end - will they or won't they help Jared? I LOVE BOTH DIRECTIONS.
Jensen's 1940's fashion, so perfect for a mob AU, and for this set. I adore the tommy guns and fedoras for that extra bit of flair. And the bar, named Jack's! HOW PERFECT.
Jensen hovering over Jared in the finished piece, it's hot, it's protective and preyful, it's intriguing, it's a question of BAD GUY or GOOD GUY, and I am on board for either one (or both!)
Dear artist, thank you, thank you - you went above and beyond with my prompt, and I truly love every part of this!
