Description Years passed, trees and structures grew and fell around it, the skyline changed, but the Thames remained. It’s harsh and persistent, and it’s older than anything, save the ground in which it etched its path. It’s cold and deep, and more accepting than the city that grew around it. (Price of Magic, Ch 5)

Yes, this is a portrait.

It really is a fantastic fic. One of the best I've read.

A wonderful, very in-character Severus. Just as I often imagine him to look.

Eee, how pretty! Snape looks like Adrian Brody a bit, was that intentional? This is so beautiful. I'm going to +fav it.

Harry's staring at me, and it's kinda creepy. Just kidding, although he really does follow you when you move. They both do. I actually got up out of my chair and walked around to test this theory. I love the intensity in Harry's eyes, and I really like how Snape just feels dark; the colors, his expression, clothing, posture, all of it.

I'm not very good with my words right now, so in summary - I love it.

(Even as a ghost, his hair's a mess! )

such gorgeous work, i'm in love with all the shininess and style put into this
looks like an image you spent alot of time on, why is it in the scraps?

firefly-wp In reply to weisen1 [2005-06-10 15:52:06 +0000 UTC]

Ahh, many reasons. I don't like to clutter my main gallery and put a lot of work that's been already displayed elsewhere in scraps. It's not because I don't like the drawing or consider it unfinished, heck, this is as complete as it gets. This probably took as much effort as Painting and the Ghost to do. The reason this piece has been posted on DA at all is because someone requested a hi-res version of it. In fact, a lot of the drawings you see in my scraps folder wouldn't belong here by definition.

Another reason is, as an illustration piece for an unfinished novel-length, this drawing was never intended to be viewed by many people. Heh, *glances at the stats* looks like I've been proven wrong.

Amazing. Love the way you made the lines white Oo and the ghost it's simply amazing. Snape's face is wonderful ^^ I'm confused by Harry's glasses, though.

Colours are great, too, and the composition. And the texture just look great. Good work!!!
