Description My entry for the SNAPELY CONTEST held by




First of all I respect and love Alan Rickman, (the voice of God ) I am a fan of him for many years, but I have some second thoughts if the role of Severus Snape comes up, I cannot help it.

This painting was inspired by British actor TIM ROTH. This is how I imagine him in Snape's costume and a wig

I am convinced he would have created a brilliant Snape character. Not better, but a very different one with more hatred, more anger and a much deeper pain behind the mask. I tried to capture the hidden part, the man who will say 'Always' to Dumbledore's question, as had painted the hateful side, the man you don't wish to meet in the dark [link]

Snape is not attractive, I love him ugly and unpleasant.

Aaah, wonderful. I've always loved wycked's Tim Roth-based Snape (I look at it when I write)- and now there is your wonderful version as well. Both now will be my muses.

In hindsight I must say that AR did an excellent job with Snape, since the suppressed love and pain was always there, and we only got that confirmed very late in the books. But your picture shows that, too, and I'm sure Tim Roth would have made a fabulous Snape.

Tim Roth would have been awesome, you're right, plus he's younger, just the right age for Snape.
Arrrrrgh "damn those apes"!!!!
(yeah it was because of that stupid remake that he didn't get Snape's part..)
Oh well, not that Rickman is not perfect. It's just that we'll never know..

Állati lett ez a ké.ped, nagyon nagyon tetszik, nagyon ütős! Azonnal Tim Roth jutott eszembe, anélkül, h elolvastam volna a szöveget! Nagyon ügyes vagy!!!

Köszi, CSK! Sokáig készült... össze se merem adni hány munkaóra van benne, de közel harminc biztosan))
Tim Roth-t imádom, szerezd meg a LIE TO ME sorozatot, isteni!!!! Óriási fazon a doki Úgy örülök, hogy egyre több JÓ sorozat jön FÉRFIAKKAL, akik nem üvegházi lovagok. Miközben nézed majd a Lie to Me-t, megérted, mennyivel más lett volna Pitonként, egész más koncepció. Még a hátam is beleborzong. (A gyönyörűségtől...) Rickmant nem cserélném le semmiké.pp, de egy alternatív HP filmnek nagyon örülnék

A BBB-re leadtad a vázlatodat?

Ja ez a sorozat megy a tv-ben hétfőnként? nem néztem eddig egy részt sem, max pár jelenetet. De angolul megszerzem, úgy biztos jobb
Tényleg ütős ez a ké.p, olyan ügyes vagy, tetszik a szeme nagyon, és a hajakat olyan jól tudod rajzolni, a vonásai ááá Minden!
Beadtam a vázlatot, igaz kértem 3 nap haladékot, mert 1xűen nincs időm semmit sem csinálni, minden nap kanizsán vagyok délutánig. Ké.pzeld, munkajogot is tanultunk. De lassan vége a tanfolyamnak. Nagyon tetszett Sylvana-nak a vázlatom!

Örülök, hogy beadtad a vázlatot, kár lett volna kihagyni! Sőt, szégyen gyalázat lett volna, ha megrögzött Piton illusztrálók kimaradnak ebből a projektből!

Awesome Snape - you make your point about the actor. I like splitting your faces - one side has a softer, more abstracted expression, the other side is direct and hard.
That link - ~wycked used Geoffrey Rush as a reference, right?

Great work, great entry! I especially love his expression - thoughtful and still harsh, severe...He is restraining the pain behind. And I love how this Severus is very human - not a super Hero, not a noble warrior, but just a man. Definitely one of my favourite Snapes !

Expell-HUN In reply to Vizen [2009-10-12 11:07:21 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much, Vizen! I am very glad I could enter the contest... as a Snape artist it would be a shame not to paint something for a contest dedicated solely to him, but I had really any time so I was afraid I cannot come up with anything

Your idea of a new Snape group was a great inspiration, it made me think deeper about him, how the canon Snape may look like. It is also good to find the real human values, the beauty of being "just a man" in this world of flawless perfection, men who are not even close to real, everyday man.

Vizen In reply to Expell-HUN [2009-10-12 13:00:36 +0000 UTC]

This is not the first time I notice it with your style. In some of your paintings, you show a real man and I love it very much. The fanartists have their own respective style and they show the characters in a slight different angle and atmosphere according to their visions - for example, (as I see it) gives them a touch of wizardry, a more magical aura, or transports her young Severus into an atemporal instant and heavenly surrendings... I like all these variants and I'm glad you thought about showing these human values. All of these visions are in the books and in the character in my opinion !

It's great you could finish this for the Contest. I am starting to wonder if I will able to do so for mine. I have still two projects - like you said... the haughtly smirking Snape or the melancholic one... I have to choose and to find time !

dronarron [2009-10-12 06:34:23 +0000 UTC]

Well, if you think this is ugly, you failed or else I am just crazy... which is quite possible, lol. (Not that this depiction is "attractive" to me per se, but I don't see him as at all ugly.)

Very nice job! He looks rather melancholy to me. I dunno if I see Tim Roth exactly but I do like the near-monochrome colour scheme and the lank, fine hair.

Expell-HUN In reply to dronarron [2009-10-12 11:08:55 +0000 UTC]

Alright, we share the same room for crazy people I am very fond of him this way.
I think he tended to be melancholic, living in his past, in his memories, dreams that never came true..

Sempraseverus [2009-10-11 16:25:18 +0000 UTC]

Wow ... what a departure ... this is a very interesting piece :} Tim Roth is volatile at the best of times ... so to see him smouldering under the Robes of Academia gives a really provocative air to the concept ... A Roth Snape is definately a dangerous Snape ...

The Art speaks for itself, captivating ...

Rickman will always be My Snape ... but I do believe Roth would have created interesting facets to the persona, taking the character to far darker realms ...

It would have been interesting to see Roth in the movies.

Ps. there are not smileys enough to express this...
