Okay, so I'm working on a new story that I have tentatively titled "Tommy and Jason's European Adventure." I would really love it if someone could do a few pieces of fanart for the story. I don't want to give too much away, but I've got two chapters done that I can send as reference material, and here's kind of a basic outline of the story.
Background: Set one year after Dino Thunder. Tommy and Jason are both single, though Jason has been seeing Katherine casually off-and-on for a little over a year. The two best friends had originally planned to take this trip after their senior year of high school, but Tommy’s stock car racing prevented them from doing so. They’ve since made plans to do this every summer, but have never been able to get their schedules coordinated for various reasons. Finally, though, they were able to do it.
Set one year after the events of Power Rangers: Dino Thunder, Tommy’s still teaching in Reefside and Jason owns a small chain of gyms and dojo’s in the Southern CA area. The plan is to spend a month backpacking through continental Europe, hitting England at the end of their trip. They start in Austria, through Switzerland, up into France, then Belgium, the Netherlands, and Germany. They get in their fare share of trouble along the way, even though both are in their mid 20’s at this point.
In France, Jason intentionally organizes a run-in with Kimberly behind Tommy’s back. Kimberly is there visiting her mom and step-father for a few weeks; she’s at the end of her trip, and after spending the day with the boys and much nagging from Jason, she eventually agrees to join them on their own trip. Again, they get into more trouble, this time with old feelings starting to simmer between Tommy and Kim; the letter is old history and they’re good friends now, but they never really see each other because they live on opposite ends of the country. They have some recent history that no one else knows about, however, and now that they’re together, spending every hour of every day with each other, those old feelings inevitably begin to come out as they make their way across Europe.
That being said, if anyone is willing to do some art for this story, please let me know and I'll be happy to pass on the two chapters, as well as answer any questions pertaining to the story.
Also, I guess I should probably fill you guys in as to what I'm looking for here. I really want something that fits with the theme of the story, as well as the locale where it takes place. A manip is what I'm really looking for. A kiss in front of the Eiffel Tower, holding hands as they walk through Berlin...basically anything that highlights their infatuation with one another as well as their travels through Europe.
Most of my stories center around the Rangers being back in action in one way or another, so I really feel like this story is going to be something that's very different from anything I've done before, and I really want it to be special. Some great art would really help, so thanks in advance to anyone who is willing to help.
P.S. Chris, Liz...with all due respect to the others here who create such great T/K art (things that I would never be able to even come close to doing) I really feel like you two are the cream of the crop when it comes to T/K art. Depending on my mood, some of your stuff has actually brought tears to my eyes; and as a 21 year-old man, it's hard to admit that, especially when it pertains to a show like Power Rangers. Still, I would be truly honored if one (or both) of you (or anyone else, for that matter) would be willing to help me with this. I wish I could do the stuff that you all do, but it's simply not my gift. Also, if you have a particular image in mind that is not already part of the story, I would be happy to do my very best to work it into the story somehow. Again, thank you in advance.
