Is anybody out there? *waves* I'm still here! I've signed up for this year's After Camlann Merlin Big Bang as an artist! As I’m a vidder in the first place, I always look for a story I’m able to make a video for, but this year it so happened again that all the available summaries of the stories were posted for claiming were so unique that I realized there is no chance to make a video for any of them.

I was hesitating for a while before claiming elissastillstands' story, because it's incredibly long - 112,651 words! - and I was afraid that I would not be able to read the whole thing before I would do anything in time. She was very helpful, first she sent me a shorter summary, then excepts of the story with parts I was interested in the most and the whole story, too. It was her idea to make a movie poster for this story. I’ve never done anything like this before, so it was a challenge anyway! I've also made a title banner and a set of dividers as section brakes for the story.


"Crave th Brush of Spring" is an awesome AU story, it begins after King Uther's death. Everything happens differently and the focus of the story is on Gwen's character and perspective. I want to say thank you for my author elissastillstands for the amazing AU story which inspired me to make this poster. I'm also grateful for her ideas and for giving me positive feedbacks on my drafts from first to last. These helped me a lot. Thank you also goes to my old friend  [livejournal.com profile] galadriel34 for helping me out as a beta. She always does. I'm grateful forever to my elder daughter Eszter for helping me as a Photoshop expert. Thank you so much, ladies! ♥

Last, but not least, THANK YOU to the mods at [livejournal.com profile] aftercamlann for organizing this year's Merlin Big Bang, again. You're doing a great job to keep this creative fandom going for so long. ♥

Here you can find a book cover, an llustration - a photo manipulation - and a trailer video for the story "Saved" written by [livejournal.com profile] ajsrandom for this year's After Camlann Merlin Big Bang.

This is a Season 5 AU story and it's awesome and very clever. The story of what should have happened to Morgana after she was healed by Aithusa at the end of Season 4. I strongly recommend this to read! I hope, that after watching the cover and the trailer for this story as accompanying arts, you will WANT to read it immediately! The trailer video contains some spoilers for the story, of course, this is what trailers do usually, yes. ;) Other details can be read at the story masterpost.

The credit for the photos are used here goes to Merlin's Keep.

I want to say thank you for my author [livejournal.com profile] ajsrandom for the amazing story and encouraging me to finish the video anyway, giving me incredibly positive feedbacks on my draft works. These helped me a lot! I also say thank you to the always helpful [livejournal.com profile] chayiana for her constructive criticism as a beta. Thank you also goes to [livejournal.com profile] galadriel34 for last minute help as a beta of the illustration. Regarding the cover and the illustration, I'm grateful forever  to my elder daughter Eszter for helping me, she is an expert of Photoshop. Without her precious help this couldn't come into being. Thank you so much, ladies! ♥

Last, but not least, THANK YOU to the mods at [livejournal.com profile] aftercamlann for organizing this year's Merlin Big Bang, again. You're doing a fantastic job to keep this creative fandom going for so long. ♥

Atlantis Big Bang Is Live! YAY!!! For some days already, but I haven't got time to announce it earlier unfortunately.

You can go to the main collection Atlantis Big Bang, where you will see a random selection of stories and art.

Or you can go directly to the 2012 Stories page, click on Works on the upper left corner for the complete list of the stories and 2012 Arts page, you can get here the complete list of the arts made for the stories.

I 've made book covers and a wallpaper surprisingly for the story The Perfect Choice written by [livejournal.com profile] tarlanx - which is a slash story and I'm not really a fan for slash -, but also a clever and awesome AU one. I like 'what-if"-s.:) 

This is the first time I made something like this, a book cover, not a video. I have to confess, that I couldn't do it without my elder daughter's precious help! She is an expert of Photoshop,  while I can barely handle this software. You know, I had the idea in my head, more or less clearly, searched and found the photos, but I haven't a clue, HOW to implement these... it was a different thing! I learned a lot during the process though. It was a great experience for me. THANK YOU ESZTER, AGAIN!

The book covers and the wallpaper can be found here.

Have fun with Atlantis Big Bang and please, don't forget to leave feedbacks at the bottom of each entry in the archive by clicking the button labeled  Leave comment.

Feedback is LOVE!:)
