Fandom Snowflake Challenge Day 4 and 5: Wishlist and Exploration

[alltoseek]

Day 4's challenge was to create a fandom wishlist. Well, mine's no secret, I prompt for this stuff every chance I get *g*

All Aubreyad:
1. Fanart of Jack Aubrey that reflects all the scars and other wounds on his face, and what remains of his ears ;-) Most art makes him look too pretty - so sorry to say! He is supposed to be good-looking, despite the scars I suppose, although no Adonis, and a cheerful open face made for smiling :-) I do appreciate the artists who make him on the generously-sized side ;-)

What would be wonderful is a portrait in the style of the period, maybe something Sophie commissioned and made him sit still for *g* Though I suppose a portrait like that would typically be full length, and I'm most interested in his face.

2. More fic about the women and girls in the series, especially ones from their POV.

3. Someone to babysit my kids, so I have more time for fannish activities :D

(I can't think of a single thing needed in the already ginourmous Sherlock fandom that I couldn't just do myself anyway, if I wanted it that bad :-)

Day 5's challenge is to branch out in fandom to areas you don't consume - genres or pairings or whatnot. Well, I'm already a pretty voracious consumer of fanworks of all types, but am planning to start listening to podfic, and even record one! So there! :-) And if I do manage to make the podfic, it will be a wish granted to Day 4 post, so how 'bout that? :D

I feel that apart from what's left of his left ear and one or two scars near the hairline, Jack's face is pretty unscared. Nothing like dear Thomas. Now, the body is something different. You really only want a nude illo of Jack, hm?

"Most interested in the face", she says... I can see your thoughts are elsewhere :-D

[esteven]

Oh, I am sure I would not say no to a friendly open smile from my favourite slightly badger-greyed post-captain, RN. Also, I do not believe her thoughts are for his face only ;)

Well, there's also one that runs along the side of his face - it's mentioned in HMSS when Sophie is thinking about/looking at him; and again in TSM, when Amanda Smith meets him. 'Wicked-looking' POB says.

But I would not object to a full nude of him, no ma'am! :D :D :D

[esteven]

Well, then I will have to read HMSS carefully when we come to the book. *g*

Wasn't it tootsiemuppet who had done a lovely illo of Jack in the water?
