I am very positive that I won't make it through all of the episodes before Sunday. For a moment I thought that I could, but I'm short twenty some odd and that's just not going to happen.

Anywho ... Innocence.

This turned into one of those quit while you're ahead kinds of things. I scrapped two versions before I made it to this one. I am fairly happy with it except for Angelus over there at the side. I love that image, but everything is a head shot. So, I used it anyway even though trying to blend it down was a pain in my ass. It's really my only sore spot on this. Otherwise, I think we cover the important point. Buffy and Angel and the change between them. Teh SEX and Angel in the alley acts as the bridge between them and I tucked that image of their first real face-off in the bottom corner. It's meant to mirror them at the top of the frame.

There wasn't much that I wanted to say with this piece. I wanted to capture the episode's big example of Buffy behaving badly. The image in the bottom left corner hints at the reason for that behavior, but I didn't want to show the resolution, so no Buffy-with-sledgehammer. I did want to include The Master, but it never worked itself out. Adding him cluttered the piece more than I liked, so I went without. All-in-all, very basic, simple.

Title: The Wind Torn World
Episode: What's My Line?, Part 2
Text: The Empty World by The Cure

This is an old piece, completed back in 2005, I think. Kendra was such a soldier. She was also so detached and distanced; Kendra was the job in a way that Buffy wasn't and never became. I wanted to reflect the idea of the kind of chaos and lonliness that could be hidden behind that disconnect.

Hmmmm ... The Pack is all about Xander. He's the central focus of the art pieces looking all predatory and slick. I can't say that I'm all that happy with either one of them, but mostly they do what I intended and that is to highlight that predatory and slick look previously mentioned. The first one sets Buffy up against him and the second focuses more on victims.

Title: Changing of the Guard
Author: seraphcelene
Episode: The Harvest
Specs: 1024x768 jpg, 101KB
A/N: Episodic art created for round two at [livejournal.com profile] fantas_magoria. The thing that struck me about The Harvest is how Buffy supplants Jessie in the core group. As much as we think of the core three as Buffy, Xander and Willow, prior to WttH it's Jessie instead of Buffy. This is a group that existed prior to Buffy's entrance into Sunnydale. So, what I wanted to focus on was the shifting group and how Buffy changes the dynamic. I went with shots of the trios in both versions and then single images of Buffy and Jessie lit in that blue light from the Bronze because I wanted to focus on how Buffy's entrance changes everything.

Title: Chosen and Destined
Author: seraphcelene
Episode: The Harvest
Specs: 1024x768 jpg, 144KB
A/N Among the many things that struck me during the recent re-watch of Season 1 on Hulu is how much Buffy wasn't anticipating re-living the whole Chosen One thing. That look on her face when she found the bite marks on the body from the locker said it all. So, here I focused on the things that say tragedy in terms of the direction that her new life was supposed to take and didn't. I wanted to focus on The Master and Giles as the two forces that will not allow her to live a "normal" life regardless of what she wants.

So, it's rough. I haven't done fanart in a very long while. Anywho! Here goes.

Welcome to the Hellmouth

Happy F*&#!ing Holidays




BtVS - Dawn
S6 - Potential
lyrics from Beautiful by Christina Aguilera
(I couldn't decide which version I prefer. I like the overall warmth of the first version. In the second version I like that the focus is on Xander kissing her forehead. As the location for the color I felt it highlighted how out of place she felt in the ep and how that one moment, Xander's recognition, sort of changed the landscape of her world for a moment. But then again. Maybe not.)
