Description AT LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAST!!!!

Only took me what, five months? **head-desk**

This is the very late, long tormented art trade I owe I dearly hope that she likes, 'cause this pic fought me tooth and nail: It took me FOREVER to come up with a color scheme for the outfits, particularly Hermione's dress. (Tried teal. Didn't work. ) Then... I drew a background.

Do any of you understand the importance of that statement?

I. Drew. A. BACKGROUND.

Go me.

In general, I'm REALLY pleased with how this pic turned out. Besides the fact that I am never drawing windows again, I think the bed, curtains, and wall came out well. Crookshanks was drawn on a whim: he's there to make sure Draco doesn't try anything "funny", but he sure as hell ain't gonna watch. As to what he won't tell anyone about... they're on Hermione's bed. Shhhhh!

Drawn with the usual Crayola Colored Pencils. One o' these days, I'll get some nicer ones...

Draco Malfoy, Hermione Granger, and Crookshanks (c) J.K. Rowling

Wow. That is really good, and the fact that you made it with colored pencils makes me admire it even more! Oh, and don't worry, I don't think Crookshanks will tell.

Awesome! Love the title. Would you mind if I ever used it for a fanfic? The picture for inspiration? I hope you say yes. I thought it'd be better to ask you...

Hey! Sorry it took me so long to get back to ya loff. I've been busy getting ready for an internship program. I'm very, very flattered that you'd like to use the pic as an inspiration! You have my blessings, although if you could credit me in some way, shape, or form, I'd appreciate it. Oh, and if you could, I'd love to have a link so I can read it too! Thanks for asking loff!

Aww no problem! I have a friend who notices details in everyone's art, so I thought that I should too.. it tells the person that you are really looking at the fine details in their art.

That it does! I wish more commentors had your philosophy. Makes an artist feel special when you say something other than "Wow! This is good! Draw more!" It's nice to know WHY they liked it. Thanks loff!

Crayola colored pencil. ; I feel like such a novice for using them...

But you flatter me! I am by no means, a genius. (I don't think I'm even relatively intelligent to tell the truth. ) But nothin' wrong with insanity. 'Tis the only way to go in my opinion. But thank ye muchly for the compliments! I'm so glad you liked!

Looks familiar. Well, mainly because My bf and I are normally cuddling (well, we would be if we were still at school. Xp summer.) Anyway.

Tis good. And you did that with Crayolas? Pretty awesome.

Well, I must be getting to bed. (you can tell it's a late night. I usually make a bit more sense. Not much but still..)

Good luck!

sky-sage In reply to insanitywolf-chan [2004-06-19 17:08:30 +0000 UTC]

Actually, I DID base the pose of Draco and Hermione on a pic from a magazine, adjusting a few things here and there, but most of the pose is still the same. Awww... but I hope you get some cuddlage from your BF this summer.

Yeah, crayola colored pencils are the only ones I know how to use, so I'm very limited. I'm hoping to get some really NICE pencils some day. But anyhoo, thanks for the compliments and taking the time to comment even tho' you were tired.
