So for this round of spn_cinema I picked Legend; a wonderful fantasy film and if you haven't seen it, you really should. It has the brilliant Tim Curry and a very twink looking Tom Cruise, plus goblins, fairies, unicorns, magic, and did I mention twink!Tom Cruise? The movie is about: "A young man must stop the Lord of Darkness from both destroying daylight and marrying the woman he loves."

I cast Jared in the role of Jack. As the story goes, Jensen has accidentally cast the world into darkness and eternal winter by touching a sacred unicorn and has then been kidnapped by Darkness himself. Now Jared must journey to reclaim his prince, defeat Darkness, and bring the world back to light.

Blah blah blah. Basically I wanted to draw Jared in shiny armor and with a sword.

Oh my god! Has somebody ever written this fic? I really want to read it now. Man, I love Legend! One of my earliest favorite movies. I've seen it so many times. It's an awesome idea to make it J²! I can picture Jensen with the unicorn. And JDM as Darkness. I am going to bed happy today. ;)

Anyways, your drawing. It's really awesome! I adore the snow and the washed out light effect on the right top. And Jared's mole and his hair and the way you drew his body under the chain, uhm, cloth I don't know how it's called. I love this. :)

Ya know, I'm not sure if anyone ever has. But they should!

Thanks, I generally don't like to do backgrounds much, so it makes me so happy that you found the scenery as equally interesting as Jared in his chain mail/ :D
