25 Days of Drawing - Day 4 - ARTHUR WEASLEY + BELLATRIX BLACK

[mywitch]

Y'all may or may not have noticed that my drawings this year are a bit less finessed than in The Beforetimes. This is all due to yourwitch overextending herself and trying to get a bunch of stuff drawn at the same time, lol. It's harder than it sounds. So apologies for the sketchy behavior <<< ha! see what I did there? I'm gonna have to go, Ogden's

Ah, simpler times. I so enjoy the noses on your Weasley men, and poor Arthur's eyes bugging out of his socket? Marvelous. Gosh, but Bellatrix looks innocent and young and not-terrifyingly-batshit-crazy here.

I hope Molly sees this and is plotting her revenge AS WE SPEAK.

(And may I also say how one of my favorite things about your 25 Days of Drawing is seeing how many other styles and genres you work in? LOVE IT.)

[mywitch]

Haha, in my head canon Molly is off sneaking around with Lucius ;)

Thanks for the nice compliment. It’s fun to do a few different styles after nearly a year of that comic strip.

[too_dle_oo]

And Narcissa is... ???

[orlando_switch]

Oh this is cute. She looks so proud at her present and she has undoubtly just told him it's the skull of some muggle who is better off on display than alive..

[mywitch]

Lol - that’s exactly what she told him!!! 😂

[chienne_folle]

If that's the skull of his worst enemy, it could actually be a pretty good present! :-)

I didn't read the title at first and thought it was Luna Lovegood giving a skull to Ron Weasley ... which I could also see, though Luna's gift would be a lot more innocent, just a "Aren't skulls COOL" kind of deal. :-)

I love the expression on Arthur's face, but then, you're always great with expressions.

[mywitch]

Thanks so much. Have I told you that whenever I am drawing an expression, I have the same one on my own face? It’s good for a laugh if anyone is watching.

This does seem like something Luna might do, but yes, with much more innocent interest.

Have I told you that whenever I am drawing an expression, I have the same one on my own face?

It makes perfect sense to me that it would work that way! Mirror neurons are just so cool. :-)

I guess that means that you should draw mostly pictures of happy people who are having a good time, so you don't have to wear too many negative emotions on your face. ;-)

Well Done!

[beffeysue]

You've really captured the dichotomy of their lives "then" and in the "future". These two are remarkably cute here, but I shiver to think what Bella's choice of a gift will mean for Arthur's future.

RE: Well Done!

[mywitch]

Yeah. I wonder how things shifted for her. Like when did she go super dark? Or did she always lean that way - psychopath?

The Black Family are obviously the English cousins of The Addams Family. And in OurWitch's A.U. Bella/Arthur ship head-canon, the skull originally belonged to Molly Prewett. (At least before Bella reenacted the lyrics to the Misfits' song 'Skulls'.) - KIT-10 not K-9

[mywitch]

They do seem like they could be related to the Addams family! Good call :D
