Description It's done, it's done, it's finally done!!!!! WAHOO!!!! Yeah, this literally took about twenty hours to colour. So not kidding. I though I was noever going to finish the bloody thing. But I have and all may rejoice.

Anyhoo, as promised, I will now reveal who everyone is. Yes.

First off, sitting on the floor in the bottom right corner is my fan char. Constance Brimley. She's one of Lily's closest friends afflicted with unwavering cheeriness and a wee bit of a dirty mouth. She's an average student of average magical talent, and also happens to be dating Gideon Prewit (who, in my version of the HP world, is in Ravenclaw and thus, not pictured here).

The cuddling couple on the floor to the left are none other than Neville's future parents Frank and Alice Longbottom. Of course, being that they aren't married yet, Alice's last name is currently Royale. I decided that this pair (not Lily and James who hated each other more than they didn't during school) would have most likely been voted the happiest couple. I figure they got together sometime during fourth year and stayed together. If you ever see me draw Neville, he looks like a male version of Alice but with Frank's colouring. Yup. I picture Frank as a very talented, well-liked guy, I've decided he's Gryffindor's current Quidditch Keeper. Alice is sweet and shy and a good student who works very hard. They're a popular pair.

Above them on the chair is, if you haven't guessed already Sirius Black. I know his hair is quite black, but you'll just have to deal. I tried to reflect Sirius's personnality as it's written in the book: cokcy, handsome, laid back, with a wicked sense of humour.

Sitting on the back of the chair is fan character number two Melody McCleary . She is Lily's best friend nad also has a large soft spot for Remus Lupin (tho' they are not dating and will never be dating, for the record). Mel is like the female equivalent of Sirius, but with slightly stronger morals and a heaping dose of maternal protectiveness. She is gifted in Charms and Defense Against the Dark arts, but struggles at almost everything else (jn particular Transfiguration and Potions).

Next to Mel is our local lycan Remus Lupin. There's not much to say about him except that he's one of the few people in this picture who is still alive and sane. Poor guy. I tried to make him look sorta pale on account of his "affliction". He's got a crush on Mel that he won't admit to and hates to stand up to his friends. But then, we knew that already.

Obviously, the guy next to Remus is the infamous James Potter. Well duh, who else could he be? James gets to wear Quidditch clothes because...he wants to ^_^;. I wanted to draw him with an attitude similar to Sirius's while trying to keep hime from looking too much like Harry. Don't know if I succeeded or not.

Seated in the window seat is the non-canon Daniella Truwater, the third and final member of Lily's little quartet. Dani is laid back and sensible; she's the logical one of the group. She's a talented witch who does particularily well in mathimatical based courses like Astronomy and Arithmancy and is also quite good at Transfiguration. She is, basically, the scholarly opposite of Mel.

Kneeling to the right of Dani is the last of my characters Jasmine Appleby. Jasmine is Alice's best friend and has an enormous, long-standing and very public crush on Remus. She's not the most talented witch ever, but she's athletic and plays Chaser for the Gryffindor Quidditch team. Jasmine is a bit hyper active and laughs at almost evrything, whther it's meant to be funny or not. She's likeable though, if a bit irritating.

Sitting in front of Jasmine is, of course, Lily Evans. Lily is the Gryffindor beauty and most, if not all the guys in her year have a crush on her. She's unassuming though and doesn't really understand the attention. This being sixth year, she's warmed up to James a tad, but still doesn't hesitate to kick his butt into line if he's acting up. She's a trusting, loyal sweet person who's extremely popular and the most talented witch in her year and then some. Go Lily, you perfect thing you.

Sitting on the floor in from of the window seat, to the left of Constance is the marauder we most love to hate Peter Pettigrew. I drew hime like he's described in the book. I feel sort of bad for Peter, since everyone hates the little traitor so much, so I tried to make him look pleasent and cuddly. He's not a traitor yet after all.

Last but not least, with the curly hair and glasses is the canon (sort of) character Davy Gudgeon. He's the kid who almost lost an eye to the Whomping Willow, remember? I've decided that he's a bit of a geek, and a know-it-all, like Hermione but not nearly so talented. In fact, he's not talented at all. Davy's not very well-liked and constantly teased, poor boy. Thus, he decided to try and touch the willow to prove himself. And almost got his eyes gouged out in the process. Hence the glasses. Davy is canon fodder for the Slytherins, sothe Gryffindors are a little protective of him, even if they find him mildly annoying.

*phew* That's it. I'm very proud of myself, I must say. If you're wondering about the vast variety of uniforms, I've decided that there are different uniforms sets for each season, though the students can wear any combination any time. Thus, Dani is dressed in the spring/summer unform, sans vest, Lily and Mel are in the fall uniforms, plus robes (fall uniforms have the long sleaved white shirt) and Davy is in the winter uniform, defined by the sweater. The rest of the crew are in variation thereof.

I think I'md one now. You'll porbably want to full-view this for detail.

lol Excellent job on this pic. I like how you tried to drag each person's characteristics in the book (and based on that, interpret some of your own thoughts!) Your efforts were definitly worth it.

Twenty hours? Ee-yikes. I would never have the patience, but the results were most definitely worth it ^_^
Awesome colouring, and nice to find out for sure who everyone is. Your fan charas are neat - Constance looks like a little girl I know for some reason
The poses and expressions are very well executed too- they very much bring out each character's... well... character. ^_^;;
Bravo!
