This is Sirius Black, character from the Harry Potter series. I'm replacing several pictures on my gallery for images I think are...better! What's it about? Sirius has his wand at the ready in this picture, perhaps he's planning to zap Pettigrew with an unforgivable curse? I'll let you decide... Technical wizardry 6B pencil in my loffly old sketchpad. Scanned in, the neutrals were darkened slightly. Using a rough textured brush at a low opacity I circled round the end of the wand to indicate magicalness & selecting the hand/wand area applied gaussian blur to indicate it's in the foreground. Two refs used, one of Gary Oldman as Sirius Black, the other a photograph of my hand holding a 'wand'. For 'wand' read my trusty 6B

Nuuuuuuuuuu! You can't kill Snape, he can't help being evil!! XD
Naw, seriously love this pic and I think the blur causes a really good efect, like a spell is spilling forth from the wand. Really love it, totally awesome piece of art.
I've been trying to draw Sirius and Remus but I have given up, well... gone on hiatus anyway. I can never get them right. I guess i'll keep trying. You have inspired me to try again 12

Adore the pic!

:-) Ruth Emma Latchford replies: "*grins* you *should* keep trying to draw them. Took me ages to get close to the stuff I'm actually happy with. Plus the old adage of 'practice makes perfect' really is true."

ouch u copied from da movie well guess what the movie got him WRONG totally sry its really a good pic but its not sirius its the actor who plays him

:-) Ruth Emma Latchford replies: "In your opinion. In my opinion I thought Gary Oldman was the perfect choice for Sirius Black & did a wonderful job of the role, hence why I chose to portray him that way in this picture. "

Oooooo, it's a very good one. He looks a lot like the film-version of Sirius(which is nothing like how I imagined him, but o well). Great pose, I like it a lot!
