black_sluggard | (Fanart) Banner for Grimm Reflections + wesen!Javi photomanip

I've been following my usual pattern with the new crossover series. You know the one: Idea, then plotting a whole goddamned outline, then getting ideas for prequels, sequels, and assorted nonsense. Then I open up GIMP and start making graphics.

Because I'm mental.

This is the banner I've created for the Grimm crossover. I'm not entirely happy with it. I think that's mostly because of the corner bit... I was having trouble getting the lettering to look like it was printed on paper. No matter what I did, it either came out too blurry or too crisp. Also, Kevin seems...very boring in this image. Which sucks, considering the larger fic in this 'verse pretty much revolves around him.

I am, however, quite happy with how my manip of löwen!Javi turned out. I mean...it's cheesy as hell, but aside from the sheer hopeless nerdery of having spent an hour or so altering a pic to turn Jon Huertas into a lion furry, I think it looks awesome.

So, yeah. That's all for now. I think perhaps this is deserving of a Moment of Zen, so in the spirit of Grimm I give you...cellos.
