Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?  

[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US on TV (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though — if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I desperately want to see Matt's entrée into the Supernatural fanart world.

Dean's a bitch, yo. Sam has easy shorthand, and Cas has decent shorthand, but for all Jensen's pouty lips and sexily-lidded eyes, every attempt I've made at him looks like generic guy. And judging by most fanart, I'm totally not alone.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Details most people drawing Jensen overlook: the topline of his nose has a notch out of it on the right side, just a little divot. And his left eye is slightly smaller, with a leeeeetle bit of a cast. It's not as crucial, but he does have the hairline scar on his right chin. Everybody draws him perfect, and it's the imperfections that make his face interesting, right?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Is anyone seeing SPN posters out there

There was a SPN ad (among others) on my Netflix envelope yesterday.

I think this artist did a better than average job with Dean. [link]

petite-madame is generally brilliant, but even her guitar-playing Dean later on in that post is pretty generic.

Dang it! Now I'm spending my Saturday staring at fan art.

I think this is a pretty good likeness.

This too, though the nose is not right.

ETA: This gets major points for capturing the spirt of Dean if not entirely his likeness.

Because books.

Those are all pretty good, ehab. Definitely sketched from photos, though, I assume, which still takes major talent.

It's the ones that are paint on photos that seem like cheating to me, but then I can only draw stick figures, so what do I know.

Yeah. I wasn't sure if that was considered "cheating" or not since I can't draw worth shit.

Do you know who I don't think I've seen done well more than once or twice? Gabriel. There seems to be some sort of fanon agreement about what he looks like that has nothing to do with Richard Speight Jr. At least the Dean approximation has some distant relationship to JA, and as ehab and others point out, some other people hit it. Poor RSJ.

I remember feeling like one drawing of Dean looked strangely like Gabriel, because they made him that honeyed blond, and his nose was really prominent.
