Art meme: answer #1

[fera_festiva]

So, matt_writer asked:

As you dislike Deathly Hallows's cover, how do YOU think it should have looked like? What should have been on it, etcetera.

And this was my answer. It got a bit out of hand.

OH. That's wonderful! I totally adore the raptor/T-Rex, and all the lovely detail. Is the redhead Ginny? Words cannot express how much I love this, and I just wish I'd thought of the question. *sulks* *but admires simultaneously*

[fera_festiva]

*Snuggles* Nawwww, thank you! ♥ I think the raptor dude is my favourite bit. I originally wanted to have him wearing a lab-coat, but there was no room.

I think the redhead is Ginny, but it's just as likely to be Molly, or Hermione, perhaps, given how many fantasy novels have covers that bear no relation whatsoever to their contents. :P

WIN

[fera_festiva]

[myworldmytrue]

:D OMG, you are seriously MADE OF WIN!!!

*dies over all the hilariousness*

[fera_festiva]

Thank you. XD

[matt_writer]

YAY

That is AWESOME! I love Ginny and Harry (especially Harry, actually, but he scares me a little)! And someone should definitely write a fic about Minerva in her chainmail bikini. :)

Thank you! And thanks for the suggestion too - I had the most fun ever painting this.

I now have the best -- desktop -- EVER. :D Thanks dude! (I hope no one in my family needs to use my laptop soon... then, I'd be terribly angry at you. :P)

And thanks for the suggestion
You're welcome! I'm glad you had fun. It shows. :)

And that someone should be you. :D
*is very very flattered* As it's Friday night -- the perfect time to write -- I'll give it a try. :) I don't know how successful it'll be, though! I'll do my best!

Hahahaha! Spread the word!

OH MY FUCKING GOD

AMAZING

(BETTER COMMENT LATER I'M IN CLASS RIGHT NOW)

[spacefragments]

okay okay i'm back.

you. just. wow. you've really gone all out on this and i just love it. i don't know what the fuck you're talking about when you say you can't draw. and i'm not saying it just to be nice. and acrylics! those can be really tough to use, they dry super fast.

3) In the original sketch I made, Harry's penis was hanging out from under his loincloth.

girl, you know what your version of an adult cover would look like, then. maybe with chainmailbikini!draco giving him a handjob? XD and no robes on remus and sirius would be a nice detail, just saying. and i guess ginny would be topless. by the way, ginny looks way fierce here. i bet this ginny could kick some ass.

4) Things that I wanted to include but was forced to reject on grounds of space: Neville punching Voldemort in the face; McGonagall in a chainmail bikini; Luna piloting a UFO; Draco in a chainmail bikini.

BACK COVER! BACK COVER! if you don't draw it i will. >:O

[spacefragments]

oh and the title is just inspired.

[fera_festiva]

*tacklehugs* Thank you! I don't know what to say, I really don't. I'm not good at taking compliments at all, but srsly, thank you.

I love using acrylics actually. I like that if you fuck up you can just paint right over it. :P

maybe with chainmailbikini!draco giving him a handjob?

Hahahahaha! Of course.

And yeah, I thought it would be good if Ginny was a badass. Makes a change from canon, y/y?

BACK COVER! BACK COVER! if you don't draw it i will.

How about... I'll do it if you will too. >:D
