Description Submission for Snapefanclub Contest 33: Snape's Portrait

Done in pencil and colored pencil - sorry the coloring's so bad - i'm new at this!!

This is Severus looking at his namesake, Albus Severus Potter...

The frame design I found on the web - it's a large version of an art nouveau standing frame that I modified - I think Sev would have something classy and different like this, not the traditional gilt frame...

Anyone who wants to try their hand at coloring this better, let me know!! I have the pencil sketch. I don't have the software to color digitally, and I don't really know how...

I'm glad this fanclub exists - I love getting ideas for stuff. This one was really fun to do!! Hope you like it!!

SEVERUS SNAPE IS MY HERO!!

that is so sweet ^^ i'd have loved to see this happen for real in the book, but alas...

(small thing: i think the dates on the frame are a bit off?)

aylian In reply to quantum-witch [2007-10-14 01:44:10 +0000 UTC]

nah...i looked it up on the "official" HP timeline - that's when Snape was Headmaster.... seems weird tho...considering when the books came out...

glad you like the pic...

He's watching you ^^
Oh, dont know why I am going to tell you this but my mum found liscense plates on ebay saying saying 'he's not dead..I dont care what SHE says' 'I cried when severus died' ..yea^^ I thought you might be intrested in knowing? XD

aylian In reply to ForbiddenFears [2007-10-06 13:15:30 +0000 UTC]

i didn't cry at the part of the book where he dies, but when i read that part in the epilogue where harry tells albus severus about his name, then i started sobbing uncontrollably for about 10 minutes straight. was kind of unexpected. snape is the real hero of the HP books!!

yes he's watching....he watches us all....

ForbiddenFears In reply to aylian [2007-10-07 04:14:55 +0000 UTC]

He is not dead...not in my head XD none of them are : P
Rowling killed off basically all my fave characters..in order. freakeh.

i know!! i'm *still* mad that remus and tonk's death's just got tossed off as an afterthought!!! WTF!!! how could she kill off lupin essentially "off-screen" like that!?!?!?!

whatever...i'm a HUGE snape/lupin fan, so as far as i'm concerned, they're both off having hot werewolf sex somewhere...

I'm not sure. Its sort of like with lily and james again with the kid being left alone...and with harry and ginny together..made to look like james and lily...ahh she is annoying.

haha XD Yea I'm still into those two..somewhere off....together..XD

thanks! yeah, smiling sev is kinda freaky - but hey, the poor guy had a tough life!! being a snarky portrait is prolly a good gig!

glad you like the frame - i hafta admit that part of my motive was to draw something simpler than a gaudy gilt frame...all that
scrollwork!!! yikes!!
