What, no Dobby or Hedwig?

Just kidding! It's beautiful!

Ah, I did think of that one, but my inability to draw owls and elves overruled. Also, Wizard Supremacist as it may be, I think a googly-eyed, bat-eared elf in the middle of it all would be somewhat...distracting. What would Hermione say?

Thanks, and once again, thanks for letting me post on a different day!

Very sensitive portraits! Lovely quote in the context of the card's interpretation about memories...

[thearchduchess]

Thank you, I was looking for something suitable and then I remembered those extracts and thought them fitting.

All the actual pictures are done in OpenCanvas 1 and then I cobbled them together with the quotation in Paint Shop Pro 7.

And thank you, it was quite refreshing to have to draw an old man when I'm usually lazy and just draw girls in cool dresses!

::is prone to excessive weepiness::
This reminds me quite of lot of the Hall of Rememberence at Prophecy, which was also quite sad.

Oh, I know! I heard about it all on the live LeakyMug they did, people were leaving Dobby socks and Snape shampoo. If I'd gone, I'd probably just have sat and cried copiously for hours.

Wow, that makes me weepy just *reading* about it... I suppose that was one plus in having been too broke to go to Prophecy... *gulp*

Very sweet - I like Tonks in particular, but they're all quite good. Makes me want to have another DH sobfest, lol.

[thearchduchess]

Thanks, I like Tonks best too, I think. Someone mentioned Dobby the other day and that alone set me off!
