Willow: Could you believe it? Right at the buzzer. Three points for the win. Oz: It was intense. Xander: Yeah, for a minute there I thought you were gonna make an expression. Oz: Well, I felt one coming on, I won’t lie.
This is a cover design I made for the supernatural fanfic Grey by @valinde (valyria) avaliable on A03. It follows the soul mate trope of not seeing colour until you meet your soul ate and starts after Dean is pulled out of hell.
When I first started doing any typesetting or cover making in July last year and still hadn’t learnt much about anything to do with the community or skill, this was one of the ones I started typesetting early on because I love soul mate tropes and really liked the way I could play around with colour. I will prolly post some info on the typeset at some point as well.
I wanted to continue on the use of colour and paint I used in the typeset (everytime Dean saw a colour it was added to the typeset as watercolour splatters) and a couple of other elements but the paint was my favourite part I did so I wanted that used on the cover.
I found a screenshot of a destiel moment and used Canva to make it appear more like a painting and then just added and added colour watercolour to Castel on the back of the design and greys on Dean’s side. I added one splash of blood red to deans side for blood and one splash of black to castiels side for death. I also gave castiels wings and a halo though I did add blood splatters to castiels wings.
This took about 1 hour and was made on Canva. If you are curious about the process si have posted a sped up screen record here:
