The Electric Things Have Their Life Too*
I'm temporarily back (if anyone noticed my absence, that is) to post the art for [info]paintedspires. The prompt is cyberpunk AU.

RL's a little rough right now (that I finished this on time is nothing short of a miracle. Really), but hopefully I'll be back soon. Without my happy place = fandom, I'm just extra grumpy. I miss you guys all. *hugs*

And don't forget to check out [info]paintedspires!

I love your take on this prompt. The colors are gorgeous and they just fit the gentleness and softness of the moment perfectly.

Wow, this is gorgeous. I love the city in the background. And their soft, soft hair. Also, the machinery in John's arm is great.

That is just one of the most arrestingly beautiful things I've seen in a long, long time. I love the ambience of the colors, the way the mist and steam become the silhouette of the city, and the way the mechanical details of the exposed components contrasts with the very, very human curve and luster of their skin. And my god, you've nailed the likeness on both of them so beautifully (neither being an easy guy to draw right, in my opinion), and the sheer intimacy of the moment, John's thumb on Rodney's shoulder and Rodney's thumb pressed against John's lips, their half-lidded eyes ...

It's just amazing, startling work. Probably one of the best pieces of fanart I've seen in five years and half a dozen fandoms, and one of the most gorgeous illustrations, sans any genre caveat, that I've seen in a long time. And I'm on the outskirts of a group of independent comic artists, so I get to see a lot of good illustrations. Just incredible, really.

So cool! I love the whole feel of this--the harsh machine parts mixed in with their tender looks. I especially love the look on John's face. It's so honest and open.

oh, wow. the softness of the colours is perfect, especially with the smoky drifting Atlantis-background; really I can't get over how soft and delicate and warm you've made them here. And the looks on their faces - I can see a whole story here just in their expressions, John's vulnerability, Rodney's aching desire to comfort, to reassure. Really, this is gorgeous work.

Ok, uh, since I'm back and staring some more (like every other commenter here, trust me), do remember last time, when I made flaily noises and you revealed to an angelic chorus that you had a larger more wallpaperish size? *hig hopeful eyes*
