Description “Well, I’ve had Quidditch practice, Professor,” said Harry, who had been scheduling practices every time Slughorn had sent him a little, violet ribbon-adorned invitation. This strategy meant that Ron was not left out, and they usually had a laugh with Ginny, imagining Hermione shut up with McLaggen and Zabini.

-page 243, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince


i'm sorry to say that i kind of fell on my face for this one. i made like 5 drafts before i decided on what scene to draw, being reminded after poring over the 6th book of how much quidditch took place. i forgot how hilarious the majority of the book was, aside from the Horcrux Hunt and Malfoy Obsession. actually... the latter might belong in the amusing part.

I just want to say how much I am enjoying your countdown and these pieces! It's evident how much care you are putting into it, and for all of us getting to see them, it's a really fun way to bring back memories of the past stories before we see last movie! I also love that you're doing them from the books (which will always be the best )! Fantastic.

that's why i like the 6th book the most. Harry almost gets a break from being the hero, and gets to enjoy himself. until, well, you know!

The Malfoy Obsession was annoying and funny! I was like screaming at Harry through the book to give it up and just move on!

I love how Ginny is mimicking drinking tes XD

I just came back from seeing the movie.
It was the most accurate one they made of the books..
It was simply amazing...very cruel...dark....surprising...and emotional.
Yet the ending (even though they tried to film it very accurately) was kindoff disapointing..

All considered... It was a fantastic movie to end the series.. And without doubt the best one.

Your drawings have been looking so stunning lately... I don't know why, but I think part of the reason is that they look a lot more finished than they used to (better backgrounds, careful coloring, more thought out poses). And to say they look even better than what they already were, that's certainly saying something! I looooove it!

I would like to see everyone huddled around George's bed after he lost his ear for the next one... or Hermione virtually flipping off all the drunks.

Oh wow, I really love the red in this picture! The backround makes each and every person stand out! And the postions- not to orderly, not to cramped, just right. I don't know how, but you manange to stun me everytime you post another countdown picture. I go in expecting the best and what I get is even better!

Thank you so much for continuing!!!

Yay! Another beautiful HP illustration! I'm so glad you continued to do it, I was so afraid you'd give up. I've been looking forward to these every day since you started, and going through my memories of when I read these books for the first time. Such moments full of reflection... It's definitely something to appreciate.

i can't even imagine how hard it would be to find just ONE scene to draw though!

Though it got real sad and dark in the end, I agree, the book really was very funny I love how you did the rain. Ginny's looking great as usual, and I like the little snitch up there on the left. I can't wait for the last one!
