alias_sqbrArtist matchups and thumbnail reveals (in a locked post) came out for ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
trekreversebang today.
My writer (not sure if I'm allowed to say who publicly) seems really cool and enthusiastic. I decided to draw something I have never seen in fic but would really like to, and she seems to be as enthusiastic at the prospect as I am am ^_^
It's funny seeing the different levels of finishedness of the "draft" pictures (this is quite separate to the quality) Some look pretty much finished to me (including some incredibly detailed pictures that must have taken ages) others are still mostly scaffolding, or at least have lots of scaffolding visible. Mine was about in the middle, I think, which is a comfortable place to be.
Now those who read a locked post I made a few days ago about my overwhelming anxiety about feedback on unfinished pictures and deadlines etc might wonder at me signing up for such a thing, but I think I can cope as long as I know roughly what I'm supposed to be drawing well in advance, and my writer has agreed to try and give me rough details to work from as early as possible(*). I made sure my draft worked as a finished picture as is, even if it could do with a more detailed background and shading etc. Anyway, I really liked doingthelittlebang but felt paralysed by indecision and the enormity of the task faced with this giant story to illustrate, this way I have the idea and basic picture finished to start with and just need to finesse it a bit.
(*)I hope me saying this didn't make her anxious! But I can finish the picture even if the story still has a long way to go.
