Description For ~refloc for being one of my most loyal readers/reviewers.

Illo from chapter 17 of my Bartimaeus fanfic: Nat holding his newborn daughter and feeling rather awkward about it. I don't think it's spoilerish, as those who have seen the coverart know already that he has a daughter in the fic. (Mind you, there are STILL readers who haven't checked out the coverart and are asking me in their reviews 'what does the fic's title mean?' )

Nat's daughter is based on a photo of my mum when she was a baby.

I know Nat's hands are a bit off... oh well. I didn't use a reference for him, and drawing hands is always hard without a ref.

Haha, I think you pretty much have shown that already. -wink- Sure, Jonathan Stroud didn't perhaps expect artists to be depicting him as one of the smexiest guys ever drawn... but...hey... sometimes people's minds just work in strange ways, eh?

I read the last chapter or whatever like, fifty times just to make sure Nat was dead... Not that I wanted him to be. It IS hard to picture him with short hair... though. His long hair seems just so... -gasp-

I read your fiction on fanfiction.net, and I fell in love with both your writing and your art. You're an amazing artist, agi.

Oh, and how the hell could Jonathan Stroud kill off Nathaniel in the third book!?!? How dare he do that to me. -scream- I WANT NATTY BACK.

It's a fanfic. A fanfic I wrote, based only on the first two books. In my fic, Nat doesn't die but marries Kitty.

"I know Nat's hands are a bit off... oh well. I didn't use a reference for him, and drawing hands is always hard without a ref."

*clears throat* Even though I have never read these books OR your fic, I must say-- Drawing hands is ALWAYS hard, even WITH a referance. Or maybe thats just me.

On another note, I think the picture is really good, and *refer to above statement* the title IS self explanitory. On both the fic and the picture.

His hands look a little messed up. But I love the picture, the baby is very nicely drawn. And I like the name of it. He really does look afraid of the baby.
I LOVE YOU!
*squeals Agi*

Reallt nice stuff, but I'don't really like Nat's forhead. When the school year will end oficially I'll get your fic and translate it.
P.S.- Nat looks really afraid.

Oh, oh, oh! *squeals* For me! *smothers Agi with love*. You are definitely my cyber hero. *squeals*

The baby is adorable, and Nat looks decidedly akward. You're right about his hands though. I think they're a bit too female-ish looking. But good job.

*smothers Agi with love again* Thank you! I shall return the favor with my fic. Sadly, however, I can't seem to get any work on it done, as I'm taking a summer writing class, which has more homework than I have during the school year. But it will be done for you. Just for Agi!

O.R.

Summer writing class? Sounds interesting. I doubt if we have stuff like that in Hungary

refloc In reply to AgiVega [2006-06-20 21:45:48 +0000 UTC]

It's through a university, over the web. Lots of work, but kind of fun, and there's only 17 other people in the class, so it's pretty small. The teacher gives lots of good critique. It's like summer school, only summer school is for stupid people who fail class, or overachievers who want more credit. This is a non-credit class, and you have to score in the 99 per centile of the nation on standardized tests to qualify. So it's kind of different.

Anyway, I love you again.

Are the teachers published authors or what?

refloc In reply to AgiVega [2006-06-20 22:09:06 +0000 UTC]

Yes. It's a short fiction workshop, and the professor despises fanfiction (well, not really, just doesn't want it in the class. She's actually pretty nice. Her best friend died in a car crash on the first day of class though, so things were out of wack for a while. I felt very sorry for her. I ended up taking over the class for that week, kind of. Unofficially. I made about 250 posts per day. *very bad, pagestretcher wack*). We're not doing anything as long as the fanfics I write, but the concepts are aplicable to longer fiction.

She's not a famous author, but she has a doctor's degree in several areas of writing, she teaches at the University, and she's had numerous articles and short stories published.

Aww, it's adorable!!!!! Nat and his daughter!!! Awww! ;_;

I always thought that the title was self-explanatory. I mean "The Forbbiden Heir," anyone should be able to deduce that he'd end up having a kid with Kitty, which was forbidden.

I can't really draw guys, and definitely not guy hair, but Nat's hair iseasy because it's kind of like drawing my hair, only a lot less curly.

Ps. I finally got up to date reading your story and I CAN'T STAND THE SUSPENSE. There wasn't even that big of a cliffhanger on the last chapter, but it was just soo excellant that I NEED to keep going.
