oohhh, you've gone and killed me. It's just... beeeautiful. Their hands are just perfect, as is the angle of Harry's face and the position/pov. Guh. It's wonderful.

Thank you very much! Glad that the hands weren't too hard to see and that you liked the pose. Yay! :-)

It's very sexy, though and terribly sensual. I love the coloring!

I'd call this an R. And it's absolutely beautiful. The way that you have the masses of their bodies balanced is gorgeous, and you've used the watercolor really well to delineate muscles and shadow both. I love how Harry's face is pressed into Draco's chest, pushing his glasses just slightly askew, and the hands are really nice (see? yay for improvement on hands! especially because they're hard do do in watercolor). I also like the way that Draco's body kind of fades out in the upper arm and shoulder, that it's just implied, because that draws attention to the Dark Mark which is one of the few solid bits of him.

Yay me! *jumps* Yes painting hands in watercolor is such a challenge, esp with watercolor where you either get it one-go or you never get it. I think I just got lucky this time. But I'm so glad that the hands look good and that you liked. Thank you very much. :-)

I'm happy that the whole implied!Draco worked out. I suppose for fanart, most people like to see faces of their beloved characters, so I wasn't sure whether or not the absence of Draco's face would work. I decided to do it anyway because I liked the idea, and am thrilled that you liked it as well.

Thanks for the input re. rating. I always have a hard time rating my art.

I always have a hard time rating my art.

I think art is more difficult to rate than fiction. But I often think art is rated too high; if nothing is showing, and there is no violence or strange kinkiness, I would definitely say that R is the maximum rating and possibly even PG-13. This one was absolutely not NC-17!

And once again, I have to say that it is gorgeous. ♥

*nods* I can't seem to work out the rules, esp of sexual themed art. The definitions of kinks and "indecent" body parts are so relative, and we all seem to use our own standards in rating our creative work. Maybe next time I'll put down descriptions (nudity, implied sex, NWS) and let the viewers judge whether to click on the link or not.

But I'm definitely one of those people who tend to rate their art a bit higher than necessary - I'd rather have less audience than gross people out. :-)

And thank you so much ♥ I'm glad that it turned out well. :-)
