haha thank you! Yup, it is Hermione, she's looking at the Ron on her left, it's Hermione in the same scene (was supposed to be a small comic of when Ron leaves in DH)

i usually dont give critiques on ginny for a number of reasons, but... i kind of really like your art so.

*sight* alright some suggestions i have that may make her more different than cho are these..

the main things i see as cho-like are her hair, eyes and lips.

i'm not good describing eyes except almost or slanted or bug-eye....
so here are some guides to different types of eyes:

[link]

or eyes and face-types in general:
[link]

try experiment a little with them.

one thing that I remember being said about Ginny's appearance was that she looked like a cat.
so maybe make her eyes more cat-like, mischievous and playful, not so half-closed, sultry *yet*

as for her hair, pre-half blood prince, it was described as a "mane" of hair.

So it seemed to sound as shorter, maybe shorter than the shoulders and a bit split ended, maybe?

lastly, her lips seem slightly pouty, which makes look older than 14.

maybe make them a little longer, the upper lip not so "full"?


this is as far as her looking 14.

what I meant is, at age 13-14 ginny was still seen as tomboy-ish or like a little girl. so she was probably a later bloomer who bloomed mid-age 15/ full on 16-17.


her having long, silky hair at around maybe 15 but definitely 16-17. since it was around that time when her hair was described closer to Fleur's than "mane-ish".

when you draw her older, 16-17 she can look sultry, with loong silky hair.
(although it seemed to me to have a little more volume than water-like-silky like Cho has)

but at 14 she is still a developing teenager, there still some child-like, awkard qualities to her face, that can will diminish as she grows into 15-16-17.

does that makes sense?

hope you are not mad, and I know it's your style. but it's kind of hard to see 14-year old there.


outside of the ginny issue, I love how you draw Hermione (although now that you mention this being in 1994 (meaning either end of third year or beginning of fourth, Hermione seems to be missing her buck-tooth. unless that's post- yule ball in which she got her teeth modified. )

and I really like the subtle, yet noticable all around physical differences between the Black sisters which really bring out not only their personalities, but also that they are related.

good job!

hahah wow.
I agree about your remarks. I guess when I drew the picture I didn't have a specific time placement in mind, so I didn't really know, I don't quite know why I said it was them around 1994. The truth is Ginny looks older and Hermione looks younger. The reason why I didn't colour it in the first place is that I wasn't convinced by it, and you just confirmed my doubts

I have drawn younger ginnies and actually understand everything you say and take it into account, I just don't know why I said 1994. I'm sorry that I drove you to analyse it thoroughly when even I wasn't sure!

Thank you for the compliments on Hermione and the Black sisters, though

i did wrote an overly wordy, long critique; didn't I?

i'm glad you're not mad though. it's just ginny Weasley is a touchy subject in fandom because So many people love her forever and ever and if you say one thing wrong some people want to rip your throat and say you hate her. (which i dont)

also another thing that stood out to me. Ginny's Face looks older. Her body proportions/size made her look younger. so it was that clash.
(now I'm not saying ginny is a midget or a super tall supermodel. but she looks really short there like not short as in girl short- short as in little girl 11 year old short.)

at the same time, don't sweat it. art is practice and refinement. you'll get it right/ the way you want it soon.

and you're welcome.


ps- when i have the time (because right now i'm bombarded with school work, plus I do want to finish things i owe people.
would you like to do a couple of art trades? yes?

it would be nice.

MioneBookworm In reply to Mairelyn [2011-02-23 18:42:36 +0000 UTC]

yeah I know. I think Hermione looks kind of weird in the proportion sense as well. Again, that is why I didn't do more with that sketch. I used to hate Ginny but I kinda like her now, I don't know...DH showed her, and Harry/Ginny in a much better light. But yes, Ginny is a very polemic character, but then she is the hero's love interest! She's bound to be a matter of discussion.

All right! Let me know if you come up with something and we can discuss it

Adachigawa In reply to MioneBookworm [2011-02-23 22:41:36 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, it's true, he seems to be a little bit less tall, but I love his eyes and the expression on his face!
Even if I like so much the actor who plays Ron I can't imagine him when I read the books : one, because I've read the first book in 1997 (I didn't even know he existed!) and two...hem..cause I don't want to!
And I prefer replace him by the sexy Ron you draw!
