Marauders

OMG OMG OMG
TG has a new favorite HP fan art pic!!!!! (by Marta, again)

It's at her site here: http://www.artdungeon.net/doodles/template.php?p=visitingremus
Oh my gosh. Remus in bed. Sirius feeding him chocolate. Everyone looking SO happy. Are these my marauders or what?!!! *resists urge to push Sirius' bangs out of his eyes and snog him senseless* Oh and Remus... I could just cuddle the cutie to death!!!

Incidentally, this one's adorable, too: http://www.artdungeon.net/doodles/template.php?p=drunkmwpp
And for anyone who's missed me going on and on about her greatness, her whole site is: http://www.artdungeon.net/

She's done some FANTASTIC Order of the Phoenix ones lately... there's even one of the death scene that makes my heart stand still. So much motion.... yet immovable in the picture... kills me... other MoM ones are equally as compelling though all of them are great :-)

You are so right about this artist and the work she does! She draws the Marauders exactly like I imagine them! Amazing ability to represent their wild streaks, their handsomeness, and their absolute friendship in setting after setting...I am so glad you shared this site with us! It is one I will go to whenever I need my Maruader fix!

I wish she still displayed her slash work publicly... she has a great Percy/Oliver

But yeah... her Marauders, especially Siri, are very wild at times but you're absolutely right, the friendship vibe just oozes off the page. And Sirius and Remus always seem very gentle and pre-occupied with each other. But I love her Weasleys the most, I think *G* They all look alike enough to be related but different enough to be able to identify each so easily.

MAN I wish I could draw. :-)

Me either! I always joke that I can't even draw stick people that look like stick people. But I once drew a tree that people all thought looked like a nuclear bomb exploding....

I also loved the Weasley kids - the picture there from the night of Mr. Weasely's attack was just beautifully done! The brothers all looked so handsome even in their fear, and the protective way the one twin sat beside Ginny...that picture was quite haunting.

LOL I always joke I can't draw stick people, too. But the problem is I actually can't draw them! I get the head and body, then do the arms, then forget that the legs go at the very bottom not near the bottom like the arms are near the head. So I end up with really, really long-torsoed stick people.

Oh, I love that picture of hers! Makes me really feel the emotion. And mathces the book description so well while still having a unique take on how the characters are reacing. Might be that picture that made me start one of my still unfinished fics at that scene, actually :-)
