Description So. I wasted my whole day doing this. But you know, I wanted to try something different. I may clean up the background some later.

A young Severus Snape chillin' out, maxin', relaxin' all cool (shootin' some b-ball outside of the school)

So unusual to see him smile, and I love the composition of the background

I absolutely love the style here! Good fanart is often hard to find, but this is definitely some I'm not even a fan of the Harry Potter series, though I have read most of it, and I love this piece enough to it.

Great work, here AND your whole gallery

One of these days I'll have to figure what Snape's secret is. It's because he's an older emo guy?

Also, always appreciate a nod to Fresh Prince.

hever In reply to SexyverseComics [2008-04-17 22:00:50 +0000 UTC]

Secret to what exactly? I never really thought of him as emo so that's not the answer over on my end.

SexyverseComics In reply to hever [2008-04-17 22:03:13 +0000 UTC]

Dark and brooding, but that's always what he seemed like to me. An older emo/brooding guy.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

hever In reply to SexyverseComics [2008-04-17 22:17:10 +0000 UTC]

Dark and brooding, yes...but I always thought as emo as whiny and attention seeking by vocalizing a superficial ideation of emotional pain. Snape, on the other hand, I feel is reminiscent of the Wuthering Heights character Heathcliff.

Veronika-Art In reply to hever [2008-04-20 18:09:34 +0000 UTC]

I agree Hever, I don`t see Snape as being "emo" like they want him to be. He is based on Heathcliff totally different character and absolutely NOT emo... but more bitter, lonesome and strong character.

Bravo for that!

Veronika-Art In reply to hever [2008-04-23 22:35:36 +0000 UTC]

Yes, and Rowling wanted him like that... but in DH she wrote an amazing chapter all about him... and if people read it, I mean really read it... they will undestand him more...

WonderDookie [2008-04-16 23:43:41 +0000 UTC]

Nice! It's cool to see a non-emo-angsty teen Snape. Could he have actually smiled at one point? IMPOSSIBLE!

hever In reply to WonderDookie [2008-04-17 01:07:25 +0000 UTC]

To hell with emo-angsty Snape. I told him that if he was going to cry so much that he should build a flying machine that runs on tears. That way he could home faster.

WonderDookie In reply to hever [2008-04-17 05:48:54 +0000 UTC]

What I'd like to see is a picture of teenage Snape playing football, or cheerleading. Something totally un-emo.

hever In reply to WonderDookie [2008-04-17 12:49:40 +0000 UTC]

Oh, I'll totally do it. Although I'm quickly reminded of the Belle & Sebastian song "I don't want to play football" [link]

And I totally never saw Snape as emo. Sure, he was emotionally distraught, but I guess I never envisioned him whining about it like a pussy.

WonderDookie In reply to hever [2008-04-17 18:10:25 +0000 UTC]

Honestly, you will gain my infinite respect if you draw that. Especially with your following of Snapites. Oh lord. I can just imagine it, a Snape football player being cheered on by Snape in a cheerleading skirt.

I dunno. I guess I was never a huge fan of Snape. I thought he was a good character for the book, but definitely not someone to look up to (or adore). To be honest I related to the Potter/Black crew a lot more. My friends and I also made a point of harassing hateful people (which Snape definitely was).

hever In reply to WonderDookie [2008-04-17 21:56:16 +0000 UTC]

Oh. Just you wait. Just you wait.

I guess I come from the opposite spectrum. I'm the one that's always been harassed. I mean, I'm not a hateful person but I'm cynical and I don't trust very easily. I was actually told last night that I'm prone to giving cold shoulders (which I was somewhat unaware of...) So I suppose I can empathize with Snape.

WonderDookie In reply to hever [2008-04-17 23:42:55 +0000 UTC]

haha. No, by no means was I one of the cool kids (I don't think anyone on Devart was popular in high school). There were a few kids that tried to pick on me over the years, but I easily brushed it off. We definitely did give the rednecks and goth kids a hard time though. haha. Memories!

hever In reply to WonderDookie [2008-04-18 02:05:37 +0000 UTC]

Hahaha...I used to hang out with some of the goth kids. I really wasn't into the whole goth thing, but I was more of a loner and it made more sense to buddy up with some of them than to hang out with the cheerleader/jock types. Ugh, memories.

Goths! Yuppie spawn! Did you do the white face paint and heavy black mascara?

See, our high school had the "Goof Troop". That's the one I was in. We were made up of the rejects from all the other groups. I've been recently informed that I was a bit of an "Urkle" in high school.

hever In reply to WonderDookie [2008-04-18 14:21:53 +0000 UTC]

Hahahaha....no. No face paint. Although I still can't go without black eyeliner. I was the the one who wore a black leather jacket, doc martens, and blue tinted sunglasses everyday.I never really talked to anyone and there were 3000 kids in my school so cliques were less defined...I found out that some people either thought I was from England or considered me a "druggie rockstar". It's funny how wrong people can be.

Can I start calling you Urkle?

WonderDookie In reply to hever [2008-04-19 06:01:25 +0000 UTC]

HA! Yeah. There were rumors at my high school about the "drugs I was on" too. I heard from my little bro's friends that I was supposedly on some pretty hard stuff.

Only if I can call you Marilyn Manson.

What's even funnier is that I was straight-edge. But apparently my high school boyfriend was a major pothead behind my back and had lied about it to me...and I didn't find out until 2 years after we broke up. Hmm hmm hmmm.

I originally had it colored a bit brighter...but something about it didn't sit right with me. I just needed to dull it down some. I suppose it does reflect my little smirking Snape much better.
