You can now say you reduced a stoic, unemotional teenage girl to tears with this.
I'd say that's a fair accomplishment.

Awww, thank you for the lovely compliment. Speaking as a former "stoic, unemotional teenage girl" I know what it means.

Thank you so much! The chapter itself is so emotional, it was easy to draw from. It's funny how even when I know what's going to happen, reading this chapter STILL makes my heart race (and break).

same here! i think harry potter always has that power over me. i always cry at the same parts, i always and shocked at the same parts, i'm always angry at the same parts. i think they have that magical power of making you feel like its the first time

They are so going to mess up this scene in the film! Did you see the trailer? Why couldn't they do it as you painted it? At night. With a nice fire. And a defenceless Harry.

Well, the movie doesn't look quite how it was described in the book, but it looks like they'll get the emotion right. That's all I care about. But I'm glad you like the drawing! I tried to stay true to the chapter.

Beautiful and sad. I like how you depict the avada kedavra spell in panel 8, and the reflections in Harry's glasses in the second-to-last panel. And the quote from the Three Brothers fits perfectly with the mood.

Pen-umbra In reply to NeriSiren [2010-11-04 01:44:04 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! The avada kedavra spell was really tricky to draw. I wasn't sure how to interpret it.

As soon as I first read this part of the chapter, I immediately thought of the Tale of the Three Brothers. It just fit so beautifully.

This is excellent!
I like the mood it creates much better than the way the movie seems to do it [as far as I can tell from the trailer]

Thank you! I'm actually pretty interested to see how they do this in the movie. This chapter was the best in the series and was really emotional, so I doubt it will be as awesome as the book. But still, it'll be cool to see.

thisisbaileysart In reply to Pen-umbra [2010-11-03 22:05:17 +0000 UTC]

I'm interested in how they do it too - I'm pretty hopeful, actually, the trailers made it seem like the DH movies are going to actually be good [as opposed to the 5th and 6th movies, which sucked ]

the 3rd movie was really good as a movie in general, but the 1st and 2nd where the closest to the books. Though this one does look awesome.

Wau! wonderful! I love the last pic of Harrys face! so sad.. but still resolute! And your Voldemort.. haven't seen him this "pretty" before! But it works.. - Maybe just a little more evil! heh

Pen-umbra In reply to Noeddebo [2010-11-03 14:58:30 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! I don't like drawing Voldemort--he's hard. But I figured if Tom Riddle was supposed to be handsome, then a bit of that must still be present in Voldemort. He'd have to have some way to charm people to his side. I really like Ralph Fiennes as Voldemort.

Noeddebo In reply to Pen-umbra [2010-11-03 15:07:16 +0000 UTC]

I know.. I can't even draw a regular person.. heh! And - Yes - you are right about Tom.. I bet a lot of Voldemort fangirls love your pretty version! heh - No, just kidding! I really love it. I hope you will draw the rest of the "Cartoon".

And yes - Ralph does a wonderful job! - He has that "pretty" but Bottomless evil thing going on! If you know what I mean! heh

The mood of the whole comic is excellent!! There's something about the colors and the shadows that makes everything just right

Thank you!! I'm so glad you like the colors and shadows--they were the hardest part! It wasn't until I added a texture overlay that everything finally came together.
