Title: The Sea to Love Cover Art
Artist:

kat_lair / Mistress Kat
Author: KazOfScotland
Fandom: Shetland
Characters/Pairings: Duncan Hunter/Jimmy Perez
Rating/Category: G/Slash (Art)
Warnings none
Summary: Jimmy Perez and Duncan Hunter had known each other since childhood, but who would ever have imagined the twists and turns that their lives would have to take just for them to admit that they loved each other.

Through a sea of trials, difficulties, and some pushing from the universe, both Jimmy and Duncan finally manage to unite in their untraditional family.

Artist's notes: Back on my art bullshit after a long break. Delighted for the excuse to work on something based on one of my favourite fandoms for one of my favourite challenges.

Title: Lavender for Luck (Art) & the only remedy for love (is to love more) (Mix)
Artist: MistressKat /

kat_lair
Author:

noxelementalist
Fandom: The Rules of Magic by Alice Hoffman
Characters: (in the fic) Vincent Owens/William Grant, Agnes Durant, Original Female Characters
Rating/Category: PG for some of the lyrics (G for the fic)
Warnings: n/a

Story Summary: The first few months of after-life is never easy (or, how Vincent Owens learned to stop worrying and love the world)

Link to fic master post: Fic on AO3
Link to art master post: Art and Mix on AO3 & Art and Mix on DW

Artist notes: I'm not familiar with the canon but

noxelementalist brought the characters alive in a slow, gentle story about self-discovery and self-recovery. The story is both melancholy and hopeful, about ends and beginnings, and that's the feeling I tried to go with the mix. The mix title is a quote from the story and encapsulates the heart of it. The mix follows the story somewhat chronologically.

Author: rokhal
Fandom: All-New Ghost Rider
Characters: Robbie Reyes, Eli Morrow, Gabe Reyes
Rating/Category: PG-13 for the art (R for the fic)
Warnings: For art: some blood splatter, some rude words. For fic: way more than that!

Artist notes: This year's

smallfandombang marks a first for me: a comics fandom! Despite the story being not my usual thing at all, I enjoyed it immensely, which is all down to the author's skill. A++ would heartily recommend this read! Unusually for me, there is also only one piece of art. Except, of course, this consists of several different pieces all related to the story... I had such fun doing this and also figured out some new ways of putting stuff together. Thank you to my author

rokhal for encouragement and scans! Resource credits here.

Title: Rarely Simple and Never Straightforward
Artist: MistressKat /

Author:

yassandra4
Fandom: Atlantis (BBC)
Characters/Pairings: Jason, Pythagoras, Hercules
Rating/Category: PG, Gen
Warnings: None, though art is spoilery for the fic as it uses some of the text.

Story Summary: When Hercules manages to find a job that will take Jason and Pythagoras out of Atlantis for a few days, it seems relatively simple and straightforward. Unfortunately, things rarely go to plan where these three are concerned. Alone and cut off, Jason & Pythagoras can only rely on each other to survive while Hercules sets off to find and rescue his friends.

Artist notes: My second

smallfandombang art of this year. Atlantis is one of those fandoms I've lightly dabbled in and it was a joy to do so once more. The story was a great one of adventure and friendship, and read like an episode of the show. I hope the art did it credit! Please see here for photo and texture credits.

Title: broke off a dark twig
Author: Mistress Kat /

kat_lair
Artist: sandy79
Fandom: Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters
Characters/Pairing: Hansel/Gretel
Rating/Category: NC-17, het
Genre: First time, relationship development, adventure
Word count: 18,731
Warnings: Sibling incest, canon typical violence
Disclaimer: Not mine, just playing.

Summary: It's true what they say: In the end, you can't run from yourself. There’s magic in their blood and slowly Gretel is discovering what it means to harness it, to use it to fight. And to protect. In the meanwhile, Hansel finds out just what it means to witness his sister's power first hand, to feel it race across his skin like lightning, blowing away every line the two of them have spent a lifetime drawing.

Author notes: This is a fic I’ve been thinking about for a long time and it started with a prompt ‘a kiss of shadows’ from

pushkin666 ages ago. It actually became a real fic for this year’s

smallfandombang . Thank you to

sandy79 for the gorgeous art I got. This was the first time I actually wrote something for this challenge and got art rather than just make it, and it was such a treat! A million thanks to

dreamersdare who betaed this sick and feverish. The fic title is from Lost In The Forest by Pablo Neruda.

Artist notes: Here we are again, the first of the two smallfandombang arts I did. Common Law is a fandom that retains a special place in my BFF pairing loving heart so I was thrilled to snatch up this particular fic, which provided plenty of angsty feels to inspire the muse.

Artist notes:

smallfandombang is a tradition by now! It let's me play at being an artist and it introduces me to new fandoms, all during the busiest time of the year. What's not to love? This year

spikedluv made me watch this hilarious soap opera about basketball players idek. I only watched the bits relating to the pairing so I could screen cap stuff but I still gaped at the hilarity of the dialogue but hey the kissing was hot. So here you are, pretty boys and baby and feels. Please see here for texture and photo attributions.

Author: pairatime
Fandom: Southland
Characters/Pairings: Sammy Bryant/Ben Sherman
Rating/Category: PG-13 (Story: NC-17)/Slash
Warnings: Puppy play, D/s, public submission, general kink. Art also includes partial nudity and is spoilery for the fic!

Artist notes:

smallfandombang gives me an annual opportunity to pretend to be an artist, so thank you to the mod for keeping the challenge going. I'm not ashamed to admit that I picked this year's story based solely on the puppy play premise :D There were a number of scenes/aspects of the story that sparked ideas so this was fun to illustrate. Thank you for my author for being patient with me (I'm always super last minute with this challenge due to timing!). Please see here for texture and photo attributions.

Fandom: Political Animals
Characters/Pairings: TJ Hammond/Alex Logan (OMC)
Rating/Category: PG-13 (Story: NC-17)/Slash

Artist notes: On a whim I decided to pick another story to do art for in this years

smallfandombang. I knew nothing of the fandom (and still don't really) but the story sounded fun (who can resist the bodyguard trope?) and indeed turned out to be wholly enjoyable. Thank you to my author

spikedluv for being unfailingly enthusiastic about each piece and, of course, for modding the whole awesome challenge :) Please see here for texture and photo attributions.

deinonychus_1 / Athene

Characters/Pairings: Jason/Pythagoras, Icarus/Pythagoras
Rating/Category: PG (Story: PG-13)
Warnings: None for the art

Link to fic master post: LJ | AO3
Link to art master post: LJ | AO3

Artist notes: I've only seen maybe half a season of Atlantis, but am an absolute sucker for the 'from friends to lovers' trope so picking this story to do art for based on the summary was an easy decision! And one I didn't regret, as it was thoroughly enjoyable with many inspirational scenes to make art for :) Thank you to my writer

deinonychus_1 not just for the story, but for enabling me with many screencaps and always been so enthusiastic about my efforts. And as always, thank you to the mod of

smallfandombang for organising the whole thing and giving me a reason to pretend to be an artist once more! Please see here for texture and photo attributions.

Rating/Category: G (Story: PG-13)
Warnings: None for the art

Link to art master post: LJ | AO3

Artist notes: I'm a casual viewer of Royal Pains so it was with great interest that I picked this story to do the art for. Many thanks to my author

jade_dragoness for being a pleasure to work with and writing such an interesting AU. I would urge everyone with interest in magical realism to go read it, as it's an AU, no knowledge of the canon is necessary to enjoy the story! And thank you to mods at the

smallfandombang for giving me a reason to pretend to be an artist again :D

I See A Man - Cover

Artist's notes: I picked this story because I was excited by the prospect of playing with some religious imagery, though I didn't end up doing as much of that as anticipated. Thank you to

xfdryad for the great story and being a pleasure to work with and to

pushkin666 for making encouraging noises at my graphics. Lewis screencaps are from various sources, unfortunately I cannot remember exact ones but guaranteed I found them all via the generous people at

inspector_lewis. The general images are from Foter that provides stock photos under the Creative Commons Licence. The background texture is by

endlessdeep. Finally, thanks for the organisers at

smallfandombang for running everything so smoothly and efficiently.
