Description

This contains spoilers for some of the books.
So don't look if you don't want to see.

[It can be found here]

My version of the second Harry Potter Meme (also intense, like this one) can be found by following this link: beep.

about the art:
This took much much longer than I initially expected. I thought I might just sketch a few things and halfheartedly color them. I probably would have, too, if it weren't for the fact that I was actually in the midst of reading the Harry Potter series (again).

inspiration:I decided to finish most of the books before finishing the meme because I have a terrible memory, and I wanted to have everything fresh in my mind so I could decide what to draw on each question. I did most of them from memory (from reading the books another time), but about the last half of the drawings were done after I finished them all again.
This is pretty much my ultimate tribute to J.K. Rowling and her awe-inspiring story that I've loved ever since I picked up the first book when I was 10.

other comments:
01. Who are you and which house do you belong to?
I took this quiz thingy, and it told me I would be in Hufflepuff. That was a long time ago, and it was pretty obvious which questions would land you in which house. I tried to answer them without any bias, but I think I wanted to be in Hufflepuff anyway. The other day I retook it, and it told me I belonged in Ravenclaw. I think Ravenclaw suits me more, but I had already finished the drawing. So yeah...

02. Who is your favorite HP character?
Dumbledoooore! I had fun drawing this because I love making dramatic expressions. Aunt Petunia was my absolute favorite here.

03. And who [are] your least favorite character[s]
Eeeewwww. That's all

04. What is your favorite and least favorite pairing in the HP world? / 05. And what is your favorite and least favorite pairing that's not in the books?
No explanation is really needed here.

06. Who or what do you enjoy drawing the most?
I know Moody's eye isn't completely blue, but that's how I always envisioned it. Yay for artistic freedom!

07. Who or what do you find difficult to draw?
DRAGONS SUCK. Also, if you notice later on, my Inferi aren't too great either. In fact, they look très dumb.

08. Group photo! You in the middle. Who's in it?
I figured, "I'd be a muggle-born, so why not have a muggle-born group photo?"
As you can see, Lily has a halo to symbolized her deceased-ness. Also, I wanted to include more people (Hannah Abbott, Ted Tonks, & Dennis Creevy, but I was tired of this question already)

09. Now draw yourself as Harry.
This was probably my favorite one of them all. It didn't turn out too wonderfully because the area is so small (even though I did enlarge it a bit).
Please disregard the Prisoner of Azkaban and the Half-Blood Prince, and look instead at the other 5 pictures, which look much less embarrassing.

10. And if you would you be so kind to draw Draco for me please?
ROFL. I LOVED THIS PART.
Classic scene from Prisoner of Azkaban.

11. Who do you prefer: Good guys or the bad guys?
Good guys! DUH.
If you can't tell, McGonagall is magic-ing Snivellus' earmuffs of, so he's fainting from the shrieks and wails of the butt-ugly Mandrake baby.

12. Now point your wand at someone. Imperio!
I figure the Imperius curse wouldn't work for me if I didn't really mean it‒thus the "pbffft."
