As it turns out, Spike did take Harmony to Paris after all, and she's having a blast during the New Year's celebrations! Spike is less amused though.

Wallpaper made for nekid_spike, combining two of this month's missions: Harmony and New Year's Fancy Dress Party.

So, another year over, and what have I done? Well, this:

I'm so glad to be part of several wonderful BtVS communities here on LJ and elsewhere. As you can see from the list above, without those and the lovely people in them to inspire and encourage me to do fan art I'm not sure I would have gotten much done this year.

My last project of 2018, I just made it before the end of year! It's a big bunch of Spike icons I made for noel_of_spike. They are based on the IDW comics artwork of Franco Urru, of whom I'm a big fan. Here are a few teasers. The other icons plus a few banners are under the cut.


HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!

This is an oldie of mine that has just made its LJ debut over on nekid_spike (where it's sleepy weekend right now).

This is not Spike, but Simon from Chance (screencap taken by me). I don't remember where I got the snowflakes from. And yeah, I know Christmas is already over for this year, but that's no reason he couldn't still be dreaming about it, right?

Oops, I forgot something with my catching up posts: four icons and a banner I made for a Banner/icon meme challenge by buffylover at BuffyForums. The challenge was (among other things) to create Buffyverse art based on "My best mood". For the mood I chose gleeful, inspired by James Marsters' quote (from a DVD extra, I think): If I only had one word to describe Spike, it would be glee... in all the wrong things.

So I made icons of gleeful Spike moments, and a banner:

With this last post I'm fully caught up! (Now on to making some new stuff for noel_of_spike)

I contributed this vid to the Fall round of seasonal_spuffy. It has nothing to do with the theme of the round; basically I just wanted to do a quick & dirty (pun intended :-) vid project to play around with the gorgeous HD version of Buffy, kindly supplied by hdbuffy.tumblr.com. It's a vid about Buffy and Spike's relationship dynamics in Season 6.



Note: in case you're wondering about that last line, it's "Do you remember what happened to Lot's wife?" (A biblical reference -- she was turned into a pillar of salt for looking back at the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah.)

Almost caught up! Here we are already at the Fall round of seasonal_spuffy, which had the theme "Road Trip". I submitted a banner for the banner contest and one regular banner. Finally, I made a wallpaper for the Free-for-All day in December.

Both of these were inspired by debbicles from BuffyForums. It's Saturday Night Fever Spike and Nile Rodgers Spike!
