There are TONS of details, you'll have a lot to see ;) (But for once, no Del Montes hiding in the comic)
I don't know how I managed to tell J2's whole life in only 5 pages xD
Thanks a lot for the amazing feedback! ^^
Glad you liked the post ♥

Aww, I love it so much :) I got such an ink kink and I love the thought of them with art on their bodies. You did really well with this!

[identity profile] smallworld-inc.livejournal.com 2013-12-05 11:36 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you so much!
I have an ink kink too and I couldn't believe Bertee gave me this prompt! It was just PERFECT!! ^o^

[identity profile] tebtosca.livejournal.com 2013-12-04 10:20 pm (UTC)(link)
I AM SO EXCITED RIGHT NOW THAT I'M TWIRLING AROUND AT MY DESK AT WORK!!!

I don't even know what to say because it's all so perfect and colorful and schmoopy and wonderful. You are always the best, but the details you come up with are just so on-point and make the story so much better.

Few things I love (but I love everything, so): the soft look in Jared's eyes in page 1, bb!Jared's gap teeth and the Cowboys shirt and Jensen's ear gauges in page 2, the first kiss little guys and the Jeff tattoo and Jared's beard in page 3, the dimples and the puppy and Jared's PERFECT grumpy face in page 4, Jensen's hair and Jared's ridiculous shorts and Jared's adorably crooked teeth and THE J & J HEART TATTOO in page 5, and the utter schmoop-filled perfect beach ending in page 6.

I mean, I just love it. Thank you SO much and happy holidays to you (and to [livejournal.com profile] bertee!)

[identity profile] tebtosca.livejournal.com 2013-12-05 04:59 am (UTC)(link)
I HAD TO COME BACK AND LOOK AGAIN.

The detail work in the tattoos alone is so freaking FANTASTIC. I just love it so much. I love you. No, really, I think I'm in love with you.

[identity profile] fiercelynormal.livejournal.com 2013-12-04 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Gah, this is AMAZING!! All the beautiful art and the schmooptastic story that made me cry at my desk. I especially love Jared's whiny face and the very first tattoo. So well done! <3

[identity profile] smallworld-inc.livejournal.com 2013-12-05 11:51 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you so much!
I could totally picture Jared whining and whining during long tattoo sessions and Jensen telling him to shut the hell up xD
I'm very happy you liked the comic :D

[identity profile] cassiopeia7.livejournal.com 2013-12-04 10:23 pm (UTC)(link)
You really are something else. So much to love here, from the spot-on likenesses, beautiful colors and tattoos that seem almost alive, to the dog (♥ that doggy faaaace!) and the ocean. (I really, REALLY love how you drew the crashing ocean waves. Is that a special brush or awesomely done paint spatters?)

Gorgeous artwork once again. Plus a beautiful love story. Brava, you! &hearts

It's a brush I found on DA years ago. I think it was a brush to draw stars and the universe and not water. It works pretty well for everything, sparkles, water, stars xD

I'm so happy you enjoyed the comic so much. There are only 6 pages but it took me ages to complete because the tattoos were very complex and there were a lot of details :)
Thank you so much for your kind words about my art ^^

There will be more J2 and S/D on the way. I drew two Xmas artworks, one to be posted at smallworld-inc and the other one at petite-madame (on Tumblr)

I do agree: J2 are beautiful and drawing them is ALWAYS a pleasure! They look so good together ♥
Thank you so much!! ^^

[identity profile] smallworld-inc.livejournal.com 2013-12-05 12:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Ha! Ha! yes, I could totally picture Jared whining a lot while being tattooed by Jensen. I think this one is my favorite panel because of Jared's annoyed face xD
I'm very happy you liked it!
Thank you so much ♥

Your art always captures the boys so well and I love the tattoos. Stunning.

Oh wow! I love your icon! I can picture J2 from my comic doing something like this! ^o^
Thanks a lot for the amazing feedback about my art! ♥

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh my god, this is SO incredible and beautiful!!! Wow, the coloring is gorgeous, and the detail just blows my mind!! One thousand kudos on such a fantastic work!!

Thank you so much for the amazing feedback about my art ♥
Yes, there are a lot details, I CAN'T draw something simple. I can't help it, I always have to add tons of details xD

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2013-12-04 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)
oh brother, Tebtosca is going to be blown away! I am not keep on massive colourful tattoos and I was blown away so... *grin*
I love the overall warm autumn colours you chose and as always, your attention to detail is stunning. Then as a bonus you throw in a lovely romantic story. Madame, you are spoiling us!

[identity profile] smallworld-inc.livejournal.com 2013-12-05 12:04 pm (UTC)(link)
From what Tebtosca said in her comment, she loved it and you have no idea how RELIEVED I am xD I am always nervous when I have to draw a present for an exchange! ^^
I'm very happy you liked it too :D
Yes, it's a bit schmoopy but as it was for a Xmas exchange, I couldn't picture myself drawing some death!art as usual ;)
Thanks a lot ^^

[identity profile] taliku.livejournal.com 2013-12-04 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
This is just so so beautiful; I can literally look at this all day long. :D
Now I wish I had a tattoo. Yup. Ink!kink is now even deeper.

[identity profile] smallworld-inc.livejournal.com 2013-12-05 12:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Ha! Ha! I wish you will find the tattoo artist of your dreams if you decide to have a tattoo. I'm heavily tattooed and it took me time to find a good tattoo parlor :/
I'm very happy you enjoyed the comic so much! Thanks a lot ♥

[identity profile] herminekurotowa.livejournal.com 2013-12-04 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
I've just had a major brain melt (assuming I have brains to melt). So this comment is all I can give at the moment: LOVELEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[identity profile] smallworld-inc.livejournal.com 2013-12-05 12:06 pm (UTC)(link)
But the comment is already awesome, I'm not asking for anything more!! ^^
Glad you enjoyed the art so much!
Thank you ♥

[identity profile] jj1564.livejournal.com 2013-12-04 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Your artwork is always beautiful but this is the best ever, absolutely breathtaking. There's so much detail in the tattoos and I love the way the story unfolds. I think my favourite is Jared's sad face (where he has the USA hat on) it perfectly captures his sorrow and loss. Thanks so much for sharing your amazing work.

[identity profile] smallworld-inc.livejournal.com 2013-12-05 12:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank YOU for enjoying the comic so much ♥
Yes, Jared looks sad on the 3rd panel, I really wanted to show the effect Jeff's death had on him. I'm very happy you noticed this, I think you are the only one so far ^^ I drew him with this hat because I remember that at the time of the Olympics he had some clothes from the same collection :)

[identity profile] pinkwithoutplot.livejournal.com 2013-12-04 11:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Ugh. It's too perfect. I can't.

[identity profile] smallworld-inc.livejournal.com 2013-12-05 12:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, you can. ^^
Thank you so much! I'm very happy you enjoyed the comic so much ♥

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww, this filled me with love. So gorgeous, too! The tatts were totally delicious.

[identity profile] smallworld-inc.livejournal.com 2013-12-05 12:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Hello you! ^^
Thank you so much :D I chose tattoos by Jeff Gogue, Nikko Hurtado, Kat Von D, etc, that why they look so beautiful. These guys are incredible ^^

[identity profile] saltandburnboys.livejournal.com 2013-12-04 11:24 pm (UTC)(link)
This is gorgeous. I'm so jealous of your incredible talent - I can't even draw decent stick men. Not only are the boys absolutely beautiful, the tattoos are just stunning. I love tattooed J2 fics and this is a J2 fic tattooed ON J2's bodies...it's perfect! Thank you for sharing this with us all, even though it was for [personal profile] tebtosca. :-)

I'm very happy you enjoyed it! I'm a sucker for tattoo!AUs and when I read the prompt I thought it was PERFECT for me, that's why it inspired me so much :D

Thank you for sharing this with us all, even though it was for Tebtosca :-)
It's the principle of Xmas exchanges, it's for one person but in the end, the whole fandom can enjoy your fic/art ^o^

This is just wow of the epic variety. The time and effort you must put into each piece must be out of this world.
Each page came to life with colours you chose and the tattoos are just amazing.
Thank you for sharing.
*Hugs*

[identity profile] smallworld-inc.livejournal.com 2013-12-05 08:28 pm (UTC)(link)
It took a long time, a VERY long time and some preparatory sketches to reach this result xD
Example: http://petite-madame.tumblr.com/post/62423277212/misc-sketches-studies-for-a-future-project-top
But the feedback I have is amazing so it makes me very happy!
Thank YOU so much ♥
