Characters/Pairings: Arthur/Eames.
Notes: 3 pieces of fanart for The Policy of Truth (AO3) by sometimesalways, written for inception_bang
Making fanart for sometimesalways's amazing story has been a delight and a challenge, trying to step out of my comfort zone and having the most fun while doing so. I am so very grateful to sometimesalways for letting me draw for her and being so patient with me and my silly flailing <3 Working on these pieces was a true pleasure and I hope you enjoy them, too :)

Thank you darling <333

I've had those textures for years, I'm so happy I finally found a project where they could be used :3

[adelaide_rain]

Gorgeous! I love the different styles you've used, and the gorgeous wash of colour. The last one is too cute for words, seriously <333

[aredblush]

Thank you :D I was kinda worried about the pieces being in different styles, so I'm really happy they worked for you :)

[redink]

Beautiful! I love the colors in the first illustration.

I really liked seeing the illust of Eames leaning against the doorway in the context of the story, because Eames' posture and the lighting solidified the mood for me, especially after his and Arthur's exchange of texts.

haha at the exchange of expressions in the third illust too. go Eames with your expansive hand gestures, you put it on.

[aredblush]

Thank you so much! I'm really pleased you think the drawing worked well with the scene :)

Ngl, I had a lot of fun drawing that one! Eames is a delightful character to work with :)

Thank you for commenting <3

Thank you, darling <333

[lick_j]

Oh the simpleness and straightforward lines are making these more gorgeous!!! :D

[aredblush]

Ah, thank you! I usually go for a more detailed style, but I thought simple and clean would work better here. I'm glad you think so, too :)

[lick_j]

It gives a heart-warming feeling! <3

I'm so happy to have worked with you, bb. You deserve all the love for these. All the love. You're amazing, darling <33333

[aredblush]

No you! It was a real pleasure working with you! Thank you so much for the chance <333

Oooooh, I love the watercolour textures! They bring in just enough colour to still keep it kind of melancholy -- the second one in particular almost looks like a coffee cup ring, kind of fitting the noir feel of that lonely lit-up door.

[aredblush]

Thank you! I've never really worked with textures like these before and not going for full-on colouring was a new experience for me... it was all sort of a risky experiment, really, but I'm happy it came out alright and that you like it :)

[lezzerlee]

Gorgeous textures! Love the color. I'm reading this right now and it;s working so well with the story! nice job!

[aredblush]

Thank you so much! I'm pleased you think so :D
