Description
I've been listening Harry Potter audio books lately and here is some fan art (after some research in internet since I can't remember hair and eye colours of everyone). Robes cause me headache, what kind of they are @__@ there must be pockets, how they look, what kind of sleeves etc. And their hats!
My mom watched these and thought they're hobbits: "so many of them? there are females too? so hobbits have families? they just don't pop into world from somewhere?" (she hasn't read the books or watched movies)
(ja hän ei meinannut muistaa sanaa hobitti: "kas, siinähän on hoppeleita. Vai oliko ne homppeleita, vai hyppeleitä?")
But she recognized Dumbledore, I don't know how (she hasn't read HP books or watched movies either, but one day she heard the beginning of The Order Of The Phoenix audiobook)
When she saw Voldemort: "Happy smiling skull", Hagrid: "a bogeyman". I don't remember what she said about Moaning Myrtle..
Miksihän muuten Lunan nimi on suomennettu Lovekiva eikä vaikka öö Hyvälempi, Kivalempi tms?

Tulleneeko 'hoppeli' automaattisesti mieleen hobitista, kirjan "Hobitti eli sinne ja takaisin" ensimmäinen suomennos kuuluu "Lohikäärmevuori eli erään hoppelin matka sinne ja takaisin" 8)

Cedric Diggory and Cho Chang :3 I'm not sure should Cho have freckles on her nose?

I don't think she's described as having any. It would be possible, but I don't think it would help identify her, if that's what you were thinking.
I thought of those two a while after I submitted the comment. If there were details that picked them out as Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw it would have been clearer, but you were faithful to the book descriptions of plain black robes and pointed hats in this drawing (which I do personally appreciate - so many people draw uniforms like the films!).

Hm that's true. Though when she was about to kiss Harry "she was so close Harry could see freckles on her nose". Did I misunderstood it, was she just so close that if she had had any freckles, Harry could've seen them or what?
Maybe I should've drawn them wearing scarves or something :'D
(It is a mystery for me why they wear uniforms in the films, why did Rowling accept them? Sure they look good but.. in books they've robes so... why?)

Oh, you're right! (I had a hard time finding the quote with those keywords since it is: "Cho made a funny noise halfway between a sob and a laugh. She was even nearer to him now. He could have counted the freckles on her nose" - in English edition, at least.) So I guess she does have some freckles. Still, I am not sure if most people would find them as identifying as they would on, say, Ron or Ginny.
I sometimes wonder myself what Rowling's feelings are on the film uniforms and such things. I guess she must have accepted them. And it is true that, despite lack of description of anything like badges, scarves, or colors of robe trim, Harry is sometimes able to tell at a glance the House of some students he doesn't personally know, so there must be some indication, just JKR has apparently failed to describe what it is.

(Hehe, that's how it is in finnish edition too, I just didn't remember hehe)
That's true.By the way, do all Weasleys have freckles? At least Malfoy says so but when Weasleys are introduces, some of them are describeb to have freckles and some of them not. Red hair is mentioned every time though.
I agree with you!
imo only the first and second movies are good and I can watch them without nagging all the time, unlike the rest (though I have seen only 6 six movies)
Maybe Harry has seen them in their House tables and remembers them. Or then it is just as you said. Dunno. So many Potter mysteries! :'D

I checked through my ebooks and it seems only Ron is specifically described with freckles - not even Ginny as far as I could find. It wouldn't be unlikely that all of them have fair enough skin to freckle, though, even if they don't all have it to the same degree.
