SciFi and Fantasy Art Dumbledore at a Convention by Rachael Mayo

This is Albus Dumbledore from the Harry Potter book series by J.K. Rowling; modified somewhat from the overwhelming visual impetus of the four movies, naturally.  ^_^

Harry Potter fandom: Albus Dumbledore, Headmaster of Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry - my *other* favorite adult character. To be perfectly honest, I think I like them all...

My original premise was, "What would Dumbledore be like if he came to visit a Sci-Fi/Fantasy convention?"

This goofy thing is my answer. He is Well-Equipped with magically-powered gadgets, canvas tote bag, MP3 player and convention badge. And oh yes, let's not forget the epitome of sci-fi geekiness, the twirlibob on top of his hat.

This was enormous fun to color. Took about six hours. I used pen and ink, watercolor and colored pencil.

LOL! I'm glad this got a Mod's because it's funny, especially that whirly thing on top of his head.

Good natured and somewhat prcatical insanity is what you mean. I wish I could levitate all my little sundy accoutrements so I didn't have to hold my cell phone tucked under my chin, a stack of notecards in one hand and flipping them with my mouth because I have a cup of coffee in the other hand, with my books balanced on my head and in my tote. I've actually gone to class that way before. I lacked the beanie though. In order to be truly awesome, one must have the beanie.

this made me laugh out loud. Instantly recogniszed him, somehow you captured the spark of goodnatured insanity that to me defines dumbledore.
