Question: the images blended into the little stamp-like boxes in the background don't really make sense with the primary image, what significance do they have, if there is any? Does this image have a story, in other words? Oh, and I MUST know where you got those paisley textures! Um... well, they make sense in that Spike and Buffy are dressed up as 50s housewife and husband, then the images in the boxes are 50s style underwear poses. It doesn't take too much imagination to work out, surely? The texture and pattern are ones I had saved, can't remember where they came from, but they're here and here if you want them. Thanks!

I made this one some time ago, but because it was for someone's fic that they were posting to seasonal_spuffy, I had to wait to show it until their posting day had passed. Comments = ♥

To me, I saw the 50's manipulations of Spike and Buffy as straight-laced, and the cropped images of a female body as a pretty strong opposition to the ideal presented by the Spike and Buffy image. It's kind of a psychological confusion I guess, to read into it too much lol.

Well... the opposing images was kind of what I was going for. That whilst they may present that straight-laced image on the outside, there was that naughty side underneath... Anyway, new piece. This was a result of playing around with colouring... quite like how it came out. It's very bright and very pink though. I'm also kinda loving rounded edges right now. Comments are, as always, very much welcomed!

Guess no one liked the pink one... how about a Dead Things scroll with Nightwish lyrics? Click to see full size, 1500x300

I love this banner! It's just an awesome concept and looks fabulous. I kinda wish there were more images so I could keep on watching it!

Thank you, both! Spuffy writer Dawnofme has a really great fic going up at the moment, and I couldn't help but make a banner for it. Link to fic.

Thank you muchly! Two pieces from last night's episode of Dollhouse (2x04, Belonging). I know some people might not have seen that yet, so they're behind a spoiler tag. Two very different styles here, the first is a lot lighter, I wanted to try and capture the sweetness of their relationship (and how sweet are they? ). The second one is a lot darker... more grungy, and I hope the shattered mirror effect I was aiming for works okay.

Warning: lots of artwork in this post! Today was my posting day at the seasonal_spuffy livejournal community, and I made quite a lot of artwork. Here are the results. Under spoiler tags because it's very image heavy. Icons: Banners/Headers: 2010 Calendar Wallpapers:

I love the Doctor, I love Spike... what could be better than Spike as the Doctor? So I made a manip. I tried to get Buffy in there as Rose, but eh... it sucked. And I don't think Doctor Spike came out too badly, so I didn't want to ruin it by having a crappy-looking Buffy-Rose on the left there. Anywho... comments are much appreciated!

That might be the best manip I've ever seen. Looks so real.
But he is a bit too pink compared to her.
