Description Snape letting his guard down for a moment when it all gets too much.

I took a half hour off study - I got inspired after Tripp suggested it (and you know drawing/study - no guessing which one wins) - and I don't have time for anything bigger just yet...they're coming though.

Outline drawing in pencil, photographed, then all colour etc. in photoshop.
*JK Rowlings owns the Harry Potter world. I just borrowed it.

My dad is old, I had a teacher once whose parents were younger than my dad, and he's still got brown hair. *does the youth dance* Now I shall yell "WE DON'T NEED NO EDUCATION!" Okay, coffee is doing some weird things.

Oh wow! I love the way you coloured this. Very expressive. And you captured his feelings perfectly! I just love and adore your Snape!

Thanks!! I'm so glad you like the colours - I'm not great with colour normally (unlike you!!!), but it seems to go OK if I go digital (probably because I can use 'undo'!)

carthasis In reply to CanonFodder [2006-05-10 10:10:49 +0000 UTC]

I actually really like your minimalistic and discreet colouring. And this here looks a bit like... um, now I forget the name... um. vector art? Probably. Anyway, I really like it <3

CanonFodder In reply to carthasis [2006-05-10 10:19:12 +0000 UTC]

Thanks vector art's the right term - I like vector, but have trouble using illustrator on my computer. Photoshop is easier! I don't know how I came up with this technique (I'm sure other people use it) - but its basically about 6-10 (can't remember) layers of dark to light colours in PS, which I then cut holes in to create shadows! Fun

Oh, poor Snapey! Come here Schnookums, Tripper's got sumthin' ta make you aaallll better!

What was my suggestion? Draw Snape? teehee.

It almost makes me want to put down my pencils and break open my tablet....almost...

I want to see your alien/corpse Draco!

CanonFodder In reply to tripperfunster [2006-05-10 03:52:22 +0000 UTC]

he actually looks like he's figured that out in the Snipper i've started...

Doesn't take much to get me to draw something does it! I'm really only doing them digitally because they're quick and I'd get too involved in pencil....but I wouldn't mind seeing some more digital stuff from you soome time I wish I had a tablet...I'd never leave the computer!

I took the original alien/corpse draco drawing and turned it into the Ron/Harry....makes a much better ron!!! Poor Draco, so cadaverous. If I can't fix it I'll scrap it (it's very unlikely I'll be able to fix it!)
