Description James is right, of course

One of several attempts to draw them again, they all came out horrible. I asked for crits of this on my livejournal, particularly where head size is concerned, but no one said to resize them... you guys can tell me what you think, as it's late and idk what I'm looking at.

More to come hopefully soon... I have all your notes and comments to read also! Will do

EDIT: Changed James' legs because of your suggestions... I don't know if it helped at all.

First off, Julvett, I've always loved your work. I enjoy your simplistic animation style, and believe that it's classic and ace.

As for this piece, I think that there's alot to be said for the facial expressions, but there are a few things that I noticed. For one, Mr. Potter's legs are as straight as a two by four. I've never seen legs quite like that, My god they're the right length, they flow well, and they don't have a billion lines making them difficult. Great flow... just a little too straight. I'd put a tiny bit of shadow underneath his legs as well, because after all if they are propped up at the very end of the sofa/lovechair/bench then they would cast a slight shadow. The background is very nice. Very simple, very easy to flow with. Mrs. Potter's feet need the tiniest bit of clean up, because I can see multiple lines.... but besides that? You always do well. I honestly have no complaints.

I love James. I love how obnoxious, clever, and how he can get any girl but all he wants is Lily. And he never gave up on her.

Lol, this is great. Their expressions tell the whole story. XD

I wrote a short for this on Tumblr--I hope you don't mind. I credited you and linked back to this page and your dA page.(There was another one I did the other day as well, and I linked that one back to it's dA page as well, but I forgot to comment on it. >.<)

If it's an issue I can take them down.

Cheers!

The only thing I would suggest about this one, is that James's face seems a bit small, compared to Lily's. I'm not sure if it's just the angle because I did use my fingers to see if they were about the same (and in doing that, they seemed to be), so maybe it is just the angle. But what do I know? Lol. Well hope this helps some, though.

I think his head size is fine, it's just his legs are maybe a little short? I don't know, I just imagine that when he stood up, he would be pretty short...
