[maypoles.livejournal.com]

Title: Untitled
Artist: cafe_de_labeill
Tags: hugs/cuddling, clothes sharing, emotional pain/hurt
Characters: Dean, Castiel
Genre/pairing: Gen or Dean/Castiel
Rating: G (rated by reccer)
Spoilers: None
Warnings: None
Summary: In that moment, Castiel realized that he didn’t need any power to feel useful.
Reccer’s comments: cafe_de_labeill can be found on LJ, but I was unable to find this particular piece anywhere but on tumblr. I went as far as to go all through her journal looking for it because I can't figure out how tumblr words re: feedback... ahaha, is that creepy? Sorry. /o\ Anyway, it’s such a gorgeous image. I love the way Dean’s face is buried into Castiel’s shoulder.

Title: In This Hollow Valley #4
Artist: egorowna
Tags: hugs/cuddling, emotional pain/hurt, hell/post-hell issues
Characters: Dean, Sam
Genre/pairing: Dean/Sam
Rating: PG-13 (rated by reccer)
Spoilers: Season 4
Warnings: shirtlessness?
Summary: 2011 series of arts to fic xxamlaxx's "In This Hollow Valley."
Reccer’s comments: Like it says, this is art created for (the Russian translation) of xxamlaxx's "In This Hollow Valley.", a dark Dean-in-hell/post-hell epic previously recced at this comm. I picked this particular piece to rec because it’s more comforty than the others in the series, but they’re awesome too. Several of them involve Dean/trueform!Alastair, for those of you that like that kind of thing! You can see them all at the artist's gallery. Warning: for hell-related imagery.

melanth0 did the art for the English version of this fic, btw, which was also previously recced here. Warning: for more hell related imagery.

Title: Everything’s Fine
Artist: KamiDiox
Tags: bed sharing, hugs/cuddling, illness or injury (misc.)
Characters: Dean, Sam
Genre/pairing: Gen or Sam/Dean
Rating: G (rated by reccer)
Spoilers: None
Warnings: None
Summary: Caring!Sam and you know how Dean is. Maybe he is sick or hurt but he won't relax until know that Sam is safe, so Sam gives him the illusion that it’s Dean who cares for him.
Reccer’s comments: SO CUTE. I love the scenes full of brotherly love this artist creates. This one features bed-sharing and Sam's hand on Dean's forehead, aw. <333

Title: hurt/comfort
Artist: natira
Tags: injury (misc.)
Characters: Dean, Sam
Genre/pairing: Gen
Rating: G (rated by reccer)
Spoilers: None
Warnings: None
Summary: This is the result of too many hurt/comfort fanfics in combination with the usual desire to play with colors.
Reccer’s comments: I know this artist has an LJ too because I’ve commented on it, but I can’t find it anymore. ;_; This links to her deviantart account and is super colourful and lovely. I love the medium used too (watercolour pencils.)

Oh man I'm so glad for pingback alerts. I had no idea there was art for my story.

[maypoles.livejournal.com]

Eee, seriously? I just assumed it was a collab. Well, they're really cool!

[xxamlaxx.livejournal.com]

I'd signed off on the translation and I was sent the link for the "trailer", but I thought the video was the art. This was an awesome surprise.

omg the artist for amla's fic is also the one that illustrated tryfanstones snail!j2. russian spn fandom is so awesome. xD

[maypoles.livejournal.com]

Is it? ;) I feel like I'm always missing stuff as far as fanart goes. It can be found on so many more different platforms than fic can, and, like, tumblr, for example, confuses meeeee. It's PRETTY, and I like it, but I don't know how to work it, really.

[salty-catfish.livejournal.com]

eh, I just see their fanart from time to time but I don't know that much about the russion fandom. tumblr... yeah, it's confusing. If I see something I like, I watch the artist but I feel like I'm missing a lot of stuff as well there.
I wish I knew enough japanese to navigate pixiv because I love japanese fanart. (googling for fansites is impossible!)

[maypoles.livejournal.com]

I don't actually have a tumblr of my own; maybe I should get one just so I can watch artists as well. But, you can't ever actually leave feedback, right? Aaaaah.
