oooo, gorgeous! I love how you've made each one's house personality shine through! It seems very fitting to me that Helga and Godric are looking directly at us, while Salazar and Rowena are each looking off to the side. Just lovely.

Thank you! I think Godric ended up looking a little blank stare-y, I hadn't done him until this morning, hence the slightly iffy backgrounds. Also, Salazar is a little more...greasy than intended, but I couldn't get Snape/Voldemort out of my head when I drew him, so he kinda looks like their love-child!

I really like your idea, merging the Wheel Of Fortune with the sorting of the Sorting Hat. You did a nice job on the Founders as well.

Thank you - it just really leapt out at me as relevant, with it being like the TV show "Wheel of Fortune", choosing your house!

I like how the women's colors compliment each other in the center but Godric's and Salazar's remain at odds. Very telling.

Oh, yes, that was absolutely intentional! Of course it was...!

Wow, great interpretation of the wheel of fortune card - really creative, and beautifully done!

Thank you - I really like your icon, by the way.

I love how sly Salazar looks. Rowena looks like she's checking someone out, lol...
Godric looks like of surprised, and Helga...man, I feel like I'm in trouble.
I love the clothes they're wearing.

Yeah, Rowena does look like she's checking someone out! I wonder who...
