oh..how did i not see this. I love it! The bright red with the royal blue is so striking! Snape looks like he's got total command over him. that dragon looks like a puppy in his presence. No contest here And your coloring keeps getting better !

thanks, glad you like - with that intense hungry stare, much props go to for an astute observation that the dragon is a Freudian self - portrait

I think when HBP comes out I'll put this in the big featured space in front, Dragon saying 'Nagini says you taste like pie' & S will go something like 'it's that Muggle, not me'
There's a variation on this out there where Nagini sez Snape tastes like McDonald's (accompanied by a pic of AR) but that's rather mean. Truth hurts

I can't look at the dragon without cracking up now At least the truth doesn't hurt

there's going to be a joke version of this where the dragon says 'Nagini says you taste like pie'

Or maybe Severus should be saying, 'Go on the paper or you don't get any supper!' *is shot*

ah, I can react now Yesterday I couldn't. It's great! I love the blueish 'smoke' around Snape's clothes, and the way he is looking. Like 'Ah well.. it's too late to call for help so let's just do it myself.'

argh... what a fool I am. I only saw the wings when I was about to close the image. The eyes of the dragon and the horns and the man fully captured my attention that I overlooked the wings.... I am really not great at noticing all details at once...

. Now Severus is wishing that he'd paid attention during "Care of Magical Creatures", lol. That's what you get for traipsing off alone in the Forbidden Forest at night in search of Potion's ingredients... I just love the, 'oh crap', look on his face here.
Hmm... I wonder who will win...

This poor guy just can't buy a break in Canon. He'll win here though

Excellent....
I thought that though there was determination and strength in the dragon's stare, I also detected just a hint of flirtation. lol. Perhaps she'll fall in love with him (I'm suddenly have images from "Shrek" flitting through my brain, lol). Poor Snape, that's just what he needs, a dragon following him about everywhere, always getting under foot. lol.

I'm getting so many joke images out of this, and that's a good one. That *is* and extremely intense stare . . .
oh dear, it's a Freudian self - portrait.
you're GOOD, Doctor!
