Inception Big Bang art: House of paper

[loobee]

Title: House of Paper
Artist: loobeeinthesky 
Rating: PG
Characters/Pairings: Eames, Arthur and Ariadne.
Summary:  "Getting dragged in by the FBI is not exactly the way Eames had planned on spending the weekend. He's even less amused when it turns out that Arthur's the reason for it. However, he had never been able to say no to this particular pair of doe eyes. And with the mind of a psychopathic serial killer as the playground and the FBI breathing down their necks Arthur and Ariadne really need all the help they can get ..."

EDIT: The wonderful rei17  has finally started to post the story so head on over to this link here ♥

 

AN: I feel so sad having to post this without her but I want to thank rei17  for being an absolute delight to work with. For putting up with me mid art block, and for letting me nag her for new chapters when she was having such a stressful time writing. Sadly she didn't find the time to finish for the deadline, but I hope we all get to see what she wrote soon, as I enyoyed what snippets she gave me so much. Thank you so much hun, and I hope I did your story proud. Tried to do something a bit different than I normaly do, so forgive me for experimenting with colours (or lack of)

Cover:



 
“And just for a job you needed the FBI to drag me here,” he states slowly. “In handcuffs. Seriously? When did it go out of fashion to just give people a fucking call?”

 
There is a sudden weight on his back. Arthur has latched onto him.
For a moment Eames thinks he’s trying to hold him back, but Arthur is too good at his shit to assume that. He knows how guys look who are ready to attack.
He doesn’t let go though.

 
So when Arthur turns around he’s not actually surprised there’s a young girl sitting next to him in the passenger seat, competently handling a gun. It’s all kinds of wrong and horrible disturbing nevertheless.

“We wouldn’t want him to think I’m just happy to see him, right?” she says and hides it in the glove box.

“Right.” 

 
His heart beats frantically in his chest. Eames’ face is so close that Arthur can see the tiniest hint of freckles dusted over his nose and the green spots in his grey eyes. Eames’ breath ghosts softly over his lips and Arthur shudders. His breath catches in his throat.
None of his earlier projections of Eames ever …

 
A hand seizes her wrist and she screams.
It’s a pale, white, tiny hand, but the pink nails are digging in her tender flesh and it hurts, God damnit, it hurts.

 
Arthur sits on the ground, back to the wall. His head is lowered and he looks pale and almost boneless, like a ragdoll that’s slumped on the ground after somebody threw it carelessly against the wall. His shirt is bloodstained and Eames’ heart skips a forceful beat.

Fuck, this is gorgeous! All of it, but I especially love the cover.

Your art is so amazing and beautiful! *_________*
I could stare at it forever and ever and ever and then one more day.
I can't even decide on a favorite picture because I love them all so damn much!
I actually started to like my own story for the first time whenever you turned parts of it into art.(Maybe because somehow Arthur and Eames never look as hot as they do when you draw them.)
And I absolutely adore your picture of Ariadne (and spent ten minutes straight starring at her pretty little ass in that jeans *coughs*)!! You absolutely need to draw women more often!

Thank you so much.
I can't even tell you how lucky I've been to get you as my artist. *hugs*

Cover art: OH MY GOD LOOK AT EAMES. He's so perfect. That wink, the patterns in his suit, his hands! And then Arthur is actually holding a pair of glasses and OH did he just take them off? Love Ariadne's expression, she's just the perfect embodiment of o_O I would make a joke about her scarf and Slytherin colors, lol;. :):)


The pic with Arthur latched on to Eames is plain marvelous, and the one of Eames with a knife is like ♥_________♥ God, look at the placement of the hands, the holster, the chain on Eames's belt, their faces! Perfect. So weird and romantic.

WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO ARTHUR IN THE LAST ONE?! Ouch, even just his pose makes me go, "omgomgomg."

So very evocative and your use of color and pattern is beyond stunning. Your poses take my breath away. FUCK, your art's absolutely breathtaking.

OHMYGOD. \o/

These are so gorgeous I can't even. No seriously. I love it, so much, the reds are so stark against the black and the COVER, good GOD THE COVER. I love it.

I love it, I love it, I LOVE IT. I'm sorry I can't say anything more poignant than this generic comment but please don't think that means I'm any less sincere about it. ♥

Wow, this is really amazing. i have to say really some of the best fanart I have seen so far.
I'll try my best to kick rei17's arse so that she gets done writing soon^^.

HOLY SHIT! O___O Are you human??? The art is totally awesome! Where can I buy your books?

[sirona-gs.livejournal.com]

All of this is completely stunning. I especially love the one of just Arthur and Eames, where Arthur thinks Eames is a projection. <3

[rubbersoul1967.livejournal.com]

Holy shit dude, your drawings are freaking amazing omfg and I'm pretty difficult to impress
Your drawings are s-so LIVELY *~*

[fern-tree.livejournal.com]

HOLY MOLY MOTHER OF PEARL.

*blinks*

Every single one of these is astounding. I can't stop staring O_O

I'm doing the LoM Big Bang this year and I can only dream of producing something half as good as these. Seriously, I'm in awe! <3

[foxxcub.livejournal.com]

Wow, I'm insanely jealous! rei17 is so incredibly lucky and now I'm dying to read this story!

[luinaldawen]

*stares*
Awsome! *o*
I love you, the pictures are totally amazing!

[bauble]

The art is phenomenal! And so much of it too <3

[we-reflamingos.livejournal.com]

Fantastic, from beginning to end. I love we way you imply movement in some and stillness in others. I also love Arthur's posture in the last one, though I think we need to talk about his choice of socks. ;)

And, looking at all that, I'd read that story.

[innueneko.livejournal.com]

Awesome! I love the expressions and the way you pose them! :DDD

[lian-li.livejournal.com]

Absolutely stunning.

[too-rational.livejournal.com]

Holy crap, these are incredible! *stares and stares*

[butterflythread.livejournal.com]

LUCY. LUCY. That cover is amazing and glorious and seriously I love the grey with splashes of colour, it feels so very film noir which seems like it fits with the kind of story it is. I could ramble on but I'm really terrible at actually saying intelligent things about why I like art, so suffice to say just LOVELOVELOVE, okay? <3

I've been sitting in front of my screen for fifteen minutes now, starring at this gorgeous art and I think my knowledge of English vocabulary fails to encapsulate how much I adore it. I love everything about these. From the composition of the cover (all the details! And the way Eames and Simms stand back to back and Simms holding the blindfold!) to the backgrounds in all the other (especially the last one, I think I already told you how much I love grunge textures) and the sheer amount of details you put in every single picture (Arthur's socks! Ari's bracelets! Eames' freckles!). I could go on and on and whine about what a lucky bitch rei is for having you as her artist.

In conclusion: ♥♥♥

sdlas.adfp,afdwp Cheeky Cames in handcuffs! Arthur with glasses! Eames contemplating his bruised wrists while Arthur looks vaguely guilty!

I totally love all of these. The black and white look with just a dash of colour works brilliantly, just fantastastic art all around.

Will we get to read the story at one point? *hopeful*

[paperflower86.livejournal.com]

Ahhh, I am so excited that I can't type any more, Eames not Cames, god *embarassed*

[mousterian.livejournal.com]

Oh gosh your art is fantastic! I love the cover in particular: Eames looking wonderfully roguish with his wink (and handcuffs!) while Arthur and Ariadne are adorably rumpled. It all looks so polished and detailed; gorgeous work :)

[http://users.livejournal.com/acquiescence_/]

Oh jebus these are all so gorgeous. I just - I cannot handle just how lovely they all are. Seriously man, Eames is just so so so perfect, I am so in love with your style especially where Eames is concerned. He's amazing and stylized and still that same character and I cannot handle it

[laria-gwyn.livejournal.com]

Oh wow. These are all so gorgeous. That cover! The wink, the details of the cases, Jill and Simms' names on the board! I love your use of color and patterns. Love love love.

(I hope you don't mind that I'm friending you.)

[luc-darling.livejournal.com]

wow, all of this is utterly gorgeous. the lines & shadow & colors. Arthur's suspenders, Ariadne's scarf, Eames' forearm - yum!

I cannot wait to read the completed story; the snippets are so enticing! For now, I'll just stare happily at the pretty artwork. :)
