Bad Bridesmaid

[tealin]

For the sake of my sanity, I took some time out to draw today. (Work doesn't count.)



Quirrell: "It's strange that we should suffer so much fear and doubt over so small a thing ... such a little thing."
Quirrell is starting to look like Lupin's scrawny younger brother. [peeved sigh]

Marius and Eponine: I like it much better than the older one ... it's more of what I was going for. I liked Marius's nose when I drew it but now that I look at it on the screen, it looks a bit too big. Nrgh. I am so losing my touch ... The show I'm on is not very demanding in the anatomy or posing departments and I am totally losing it. Can't wait for life drawing to start. And for me to get enough free time to work on my own stuff, namely ill-fated clacksmen, if I ever work up the nerve and motivation to resume the blasted thing.

I need something cathartic...

I don't know what has suddenly inspired you to draw a bunch of HP pictures, but I like it!

Quirrel is bugging me though. He is incredibly skinny. Shouldn't the back of his robes be a little farther...back? He looks anerexic or something.

I have no idea who the other characters are, but it's a lovely drawing.

Sorry...everytime I comment your LJ it's always a critique as if it were on EP or something. I'll try to stop that...

Hey, criticism is welcome everywhere. I don't put the pictures up just to rake in compliments (despite what the result may be), it's just a handy way to keep the drawings coming and get some feedback – good or bad – without having to update my whole page.

I have always pictured Quirrell being really skinny ... his rear might stick out a little more in this pose, you're right, but caricature has to extend past the face, and so with the necessary exaggeration of anatomy, he wouldn't have much bulk.
