SPN Crossover Big Bang - Art

[switch842]

Behind the cut, you will find my artwork for the Supernatural/White Collar crossover story "Aiding and Abetting" written for the sncross_bigbang challenge. The art is quite spoilery for the story as it contains "illustrations" for several of the scenes. So, you might want to read the story first and then come check this out! :-)

STORY INFO:
Title: Aiding and Abetting
Author(s): phate_phoenix
Artist: switch842
Crossover: White Collar
Disclaimer: DO NOT OWN EITHER SHOW.
Type: (Gen, Het, or Slash) Slash
Word Count: 33,135
Characters/Pairings: Dean/Neal, Castiel/Dean, Sam, Peter, El, Mozzie
Warnings: Blood, Mentions of spousal abuse (none of the main or minor characters)
Spoilers: Up to Appointment in Samarra (6x11) for Supernatural and Point Blank (2x09) from White Collar. It's AU from there.
Summary: The Winchesters are forces of change, often for the worse, and Neal Caffrey knows this better than most. Still, when Sam and Dean show up in his home twenty years after Neal fakes his death to get out of the hunting life, he can’t turn them away. Not even when their latest hunt puts him directly at odds with Peter and the rest of the FBI. Because, sometimes, change can be good.

Illustrations:
The style with these is a little different than usual. What I was noticing as I was looking through the pictures I had of both White Collar & Supernatural is that the lighting styles between the two shows is very different. SPN is often under light or slightly blue in tone whereas WC has a much more natural feeling to it. I thought, instead of driving myself crazy trying to blend images together more seamlessly that perhaps I could play up the differences between them. I remembered back to my childhood where I would take (for example) a picture of the desert from National Geographic. Then, flip through the magazine and cut out a car and a dog and paste those on top of the desert picture. The results are the following collages. Quotes are from the story.

Castiel/Dean/Neal:
I just wanted something with the three of them together.

I Want You To Want Me
I want you to want me.
I need you to need me.
I'd love you to love me.
I'm beggin' you to beg me.

Closer
The floor is crackling cold,
She took my heart, I think she took my soul.

Misery
Not that I didn't care
It's that I didn't know
It's not what I didn't feel,
It's what I didn't show

Coming To Terms
Don't let go
I've wanted this far too long
Mistakes become regrets
I've learned to love abuse
Please show me what I'm looking for

Enter Sandman
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
Off to never never land

Rooster
Ain't found a way to kill me yet

Leave Out All The Rest
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed

For Good
It well may be
That we will never meet again
In this lifetime
So let me say before we part
So much of me
Is made of what I learned from you
You'll be with me
Like a handprint on my heart
And now whatever way our stories end
I know you have re-written mine
By being my friend...


Hope you enjoyed!
