Description Tom Marvolo Riddle, or as most of us call him, the Dark Lord.

Warning! Spoiler at the end of the description (although I don't really say any important things about the book)


This picture has been drawn completely in Photoshop 7, using a picture as reference. I've got the picture printed on paper, so it's impossible for me to post it this time (as my scanner won't work )
Tools used: hard and soft brush, pen tool, noise filter and the default textures from the texturizer.

The drawing is for all the members of neohogwarts who I know (or don't know), and all harry potter fans out there

I know Tom looks a bit younger than the Tom from the Chamber of Secrets movie, but the case is that he's supposed to be 17 years old, and I'm not sure about the age of the CoS character in the movie.

I planned to add some text with a sentence related to the Dark Lord, but I couldn't think of any.

And... just in case Tahlula from NeoHogwarts reads this, Go Slytherin!


SPOILER (just in case...):
Whenever the young Tom Riddle is mentioned in the book, we can feel the incredible amount of power he has, even as a young child. I could almost see an aura around him, so decided to make it red (he looks more evil).

---

I forgot to say that I've got some screenshots from the different stages. I can post them if anybody's interested in seeing the process.

This was drawn using an optical mouse (apart from the brick texture on his jumper), but the next one will be using a tablet (I got one a while ago)

Thanks for the comments
But I'm not too certain about something you said... Tom Riddle will be mine

I've been drawing a few pictures lately, but I'm too lazy to finish some of them I'll try to post one here as soon as possible

haha, thanks, tablets seem fun
Drawing Tom was fun, especially his eyes.

By looking at your DA page, I assume you're a Potter fan too?

Yes... but I expected an even better-looking boy to play Tom Riddle. It's the best part of books, you can choose what characters look like
You're right, it's hard to find time to draw at times.

yeah- i know,, tom riddle is the hotness, the evilness also....but the hotness........
so his looks are easy to imagine........but hard to depict properly i find
its interesting that jk rowling decided to make her main evil guy so attractive........
i guess it made it easy for him to be popular as the teenage tom
hmm ponderous

I tried to make the background look dark... I'm no good at that, though
