.art: Croatoan v. 3.1 (Dean/Cas) PG
HA, so, yesterday I posted a draft version of my cyberpunk piece for the Dean/Cas AU/Fusion challenge, thinking there was no chance whatsoever I would be able to finish it any time soon. WELL GUESS WHAT. I finished it last night, more or less completely by accident. Thank you, Google image search!
It occurred to me that I should also make a tag for black and white art, since I have been doing so much of it lately. At least, I think the last two things I've done have been b&w. Oh, I'm so monochromatic! So now there is a tag for my b&w art.
Oh, yeah, I keep forgetting to .eta: The full-size versions of these are REALLY REALLY BIG, and so are linked under their more moderately-sized counterparts.
[full size (2000.1200)]
1680.1050 | 1440.900 | 1280.800
1600.1200 | 1280.1024 | 1024.768
And by demand, one of just Cas.

.credits: Caps by myself and oxoniensis; other stock scavenged from the Internet. Textures by elli and kiho-chan.
Hidden text is from two songs by Iron & Wine, "On Your Wings" and "Freedom Hangs Like Heaven."
So, the story to the piece is something I originally thought of putting in the art itself, but it felt cluttery. So, here's how I imagined some of it going:
Castiel is an angel--what people like Dean Winchester consider to be little better than cybernetic viruses, whose programming enables him to take over the body of a human host and convert it to a cyborg. ("Dicks with memory chips" in Dean's words.) He's sent to rescue the aforementioned, and extremely ungrateful, Dean Winchester from incarceration in the place humans call Hell, because Dean, according to the metallic dicks up in the sky, has work to do, defeating Lucifer.
In addition to his AI-augmented Impala, Dean's best friends are his brother Sam and his left hand--or, rather, arm, as back in 2188 he had his biological arm removed and replaced with a solid titanium mount to which he can attach a cybernetic limb or a series of different weapons including his favorite, the S&W-179 (fully automatic, low-maintenance). Slowly but surely, though, he finds himself adding Cas, with his huge cybernetic wings and attitude problem (which means Dean spends a lot of time trying to convince Cas to buck his programming), to the list of things he trusts.
Only, in 2214, Lucifer unleashes the virus called Croatoan 3.1. Unmodified humans, cyborgs, and augments like Dean and Sam start dying... and when Dean and Sam refuse to play host to a pair of cybernetic beings called Michael and Lucifer, things really go to Hell.
So if anyone wants to write this, you are totally more than welcome. I don't think I will.
