{fanart} "Nothing If Not Game"

[altocello]

I was inspired by junkshop_disco's kinkspiration round 2 crossdressing fic, "Good, Giving, and Gwaine." If you haven't read it yet, you should.

Pencil on paper, smudgy stick and the ever important grey gummy eraser. I was supposed to be working on my merlin_games piece this month. Ahahahahaha. I read the fic and couldn't help but do this.

Many thanks to reni_m for going above and beyond the call of duty as a beta, and to everyone else who kept saying they wanted to see it. :D

OMG, I can't stop staring.

This is so awesome. I want to say something sensible but I can't even think of any words. I love it ♥.

(I think you killed my brain)

Thank you for drawing him ♥ Do you mind if I link this on my page? I think it might be relevent to a couple of people's interest :D.

You are welcome, it was fun. Thanks for writing the words that gave me the image. <3

I don't mind at all! It was meant to be a companion to the fic, if you like. <3

This is sublime, gurl, just sublime. I love how is arms/hands are splayed out like "I even look good in girl clothes."

Oh, Gwaine. <3 The contrasts are fantastic, bringing focus to everything and to the loving attention you gave to details. His open and loving body language is very in character, and wow do those clothes fit him well. Beautiful work!

Thank you! <3 LOL, it is a really Gwaine pose, isn't it? No insecurities there! :D

[altocello.livejournal.com]

Many thanks! This one was just so much fun to do (the muse was happy with me, lol). :D

[altocello.livejournal.com]

I did! I actually finished it last night but had to wait until this morning to take the photo, adjust the contrast, and post.

I'm glad you like it! <3

great picture ^__^ <3

[altocello.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much!

I finished his face before I even sketched in the hands, and when I ended up with that fond look (he just wouldn't be sultry for me) I knew he needed to have his hands turned outward. To show how giving and how open to trying new things he is in the story.

And he's got a great figure to put in a corset, with those lovely broad shoulders and trim waist.... it was a delight to draw! :D

Thanks so much! <3

[altocello.livejournal.com]

[gfeather.livejournal.com]

AWESOME! You are made of win... and so is Gwaine XD

[altocello.livejournal.com]

Awww... Thanks, feather! He does rock that corset, doesn't he? :D
