Description
Each Drawing varies in side though they are no larger than 7 x 7Pencil on Paper
*** This is technically a re-posting of this illustration. I plan to do so with all of my Potter art work building up (hopefully) to having some new stuff to share there after. So if you feel like you've seen this before - you probably have. On the upside, I'm sharing it at a larger resolution and without the DeviantArt watermark on it now **
I got strangely board with doing the illustrations from this chapter... and maybe it was left over feelings from doing the chapter before, but I was looking forward to drawing and painting the dragon. AND it was a Hargid-sentric chapter for goodness sakes. So I should have been doing drawing after drawing. But when it came time to choose what exactly to draw... there wasn't a lot of great scenes or moments I wanted to illustrate. Norbert is surprisingly more a discussing point than focal one demanding illustrations of him... or her as we later learn. And then I try not to let my obsession with Hagrid control what I draw too often, and when all was said and done, I only did one of him. That said...
I was really happy with the one drawing of him I did. His proportions came out a little on the "chibby" side, but I was really happy with his body gesture and facial expression. When I'm doing new Hagrid drawings, I'll often go back to this one for reference.
I was also very happy with Ron of al people. I struggle with drawing him for some reason. So when a drawing/painting of him goes well, I'm a little extra happy with it.

Those Invisibility Cloak scenes almost look like optical illusions.
Did Norbert ever spit fire near Hagrids beard? 'Cause I thought
that was funny.

I suppose the cloak (the way I do it anyway) does have some optical illusion-is qualities
I don't think Norbert spits fire near Hagrid's beard... at leant not in the way it happens in the movie. But it was a cute scene.

Now I know who to look for
if I'm to look for certain critiques.
Well, even then, I still like
that scene.

Hagrid really put the kids through hell in this chapter. Ron got injured and then Harry and Hermione got busted and received detention. Your Hagrid looks great! I wonder if the picture on Hagrid's mantle is the one of him and his father. Nice attention to detail by adding the monogram to Draco's pyjamas.

Wow - good eye catching the monogram on Malfoy's pajamas! Fun Fact - it's also on his robes - he's the only one with it, but the button has the Malfoy monogram.

There are some nicely illustrated moments here ... the invisibility cloak, Hogwarts at night as the Broomsticks fly, McGonagoll pulling Malfoy by the ear, Hagrid's fireplace ... it's not altogether so bad!

I wasn't so much disappointed in what I did as much as I expected myself to have done more considering the chapter. But thank you for the compliment nonetheless!
