I have had this one under WIP since March 6, 09, with a huge span of inactivity and just couldn't finish until now. I am still not completely satisfied with it, especially when it comes to the skin... However it had been a learning experience and I couldn't just let it rot in my computer, especially when depraving Himlayan from the pleasure (or horror?) to see her awesome art being colored.

I am MOST definitely not going to point out the crap in the hopes you wouldn't notice them xD but let me say this:

For some reason I got confused with the light source when halfway, I started to work on wand... O'noes! Wand is at the dark part of the setting... What to do? I don't want to recolor all over again to get the shading right... but then an idea popped in my head... WHO said that magic HAD to be all sparkly like Edward Cullen's "diamond body" from it... So yesterday I finally started working on it and try to fix some errors and such.

Fortunately, I am satisfied with the kind of message it gives, the background and it gives and oh the cloak, I am actually proud of that one! XD Also the background seems pwerty in an abstract way... <3 Oh and the robes! I actually liked how I brought it out to life (life? Yes, shush), it's so pwerty. It was pwertier in normal light setting too but it just didn't fit the whole image so... yeah.

Wow *_* You made this look so cool and so much better than the original! <3 <3 <3 Love what you did with the robes too, looks so silky I really like how you made the saturated colors work together! Hope you enjoyed working on this, it's a treat to look at XD Hope you don't mind if I pimp it in my next journal update! <3

Oh please, why would I complain? Yeah, I liked the robes lol. I decided to give it another color because frankly... I don't think he always wore black.

Thanks for the compliments XD makes butterfly go around my stomach

'Cause a journal feature isn't really much, but it's the most I can do right now T_T Sorry! (snuggles lovely colored Snape art!) Trying to finish up the details on my latest commission, so it'll be in the next update XD And yeah, I can see Snape wearing some of the cooler shades *_*

No need for thanks, it's very lovely! <3
