Such a Waste

[tealin]

Prompted by an email I recieved which asked me how I pictured Lupin in the fifth and sixth books, I have illustrated every scene in which he appears with TWO easy sketches!


Lupin Scene Type A: Exposing Relevant Background Information (okay, okay, I cheated and made the speech bubble in Photoshop, which technically I'm not supposed to do with this sketchbook thing, but I wanted it to look really artificial.)
Lupin Scene Type B: Comforting Distressed Person(s)

These drawings are ICKY. Bad. And I'd even gone to life drawing and everything.

Oh my gosh! Lupin! Much love goes to you, I can't draw a hand holding a cup worth crap.

Nobody seems to like to draw Lupin anymore, so I drew him. Of course, in his young years (the only time people seem to draw him).

Awesome, love, both of them. You are just as good as Makani!

Nobody seems to like to draw Lupin anymore...

That's because all he does is (a)expose relevant backgound information or (b)comfort people! Booo-ring!

As good as Makani, HAH! I think not. For she is the most rockin' artist of cool. And is steadily improving.

Oh, man. Let me tell you! Makani is so awesome. I like, write to her a lot and I've probobly gotten on her nerves, but that's okay! If she hated me I would still love her drawings to death! They are AWESOME. You and her both inspired me to draw more, like, once I searched "Firebolt" in images in google just for fun, and your picture of Harry and Ron walking back from the quidditch pitch came up. And I clicked on that and at the time I was like "ANIME, ANIME" and I secretly had this passion for your "american" style art. And you got me to draw a tonnnnnn more and then you mentioned Heather, and I went there to her site and came apon even MORE gorgous drawings and I slowly morphed my style. It went from "anime" to "realistic Narnia type" and then to the style like a mix of, well, I don't know, Makani, Twirlynoodle and Narnia. I've never really thought of that like that . . but I geuss that's how it looks. Hmm . .

Darn you both to HECK! I became insanely curious about this "Makani" (took me a little while to figure out you were talking about "Butt Face" - there's another "Makani" on LJ, apparently no relation) after all this high praise you were heaping on her - I thought I could just drop in on her little site and check out a few pictures to see if...whoa! There's a TON of pictures here, so, Ok, I'll just see all the ones on this page and then...wait, there's a scroll button and...there's MORE? A LOT more?? Well, just one or two more, because I'm busy, and couldn't possibly...about 3 HOURS LATER!!! OMSHF (oh my sweet holy fudge) you were RIGHT! 19??? No way. Definite HUGE improvement in just a couple of years - wow! Don't quite understand the fetish with the "Malfoys in Love", but, hey, they're great drawings anyway! Soooo many good ones (and so many truly funny, clever jokes) - particularly liked a couple of recent Fenris Greyback pic's! (She is also clearly a LOT more comfortable working on the computer than me - well, who isn't?) all kidding aside, thanks for the tip! And I think you should both be publishing your own graphic novels, together or seperately. Why wait to work on a movie? Make your own in print! Make a fortune at Comicon! Make a deal with some big studio once it has a big following! That is all.
