My favorite character in the Harry Potter books, this is ol' Mad-eye as he first makes his appearance at Hogwarts. He's a bad mutha...

I watched the X-Files and decided against working for the government. I saw this picture and decided not to be an auror.

As always, Trace--excellent work! ^_^ I love this piece. It totally captures the danger that can be over-looked in Rowling's books. Not everything, or everyone, is all sweetness and light or sunshine and roses. Good job!

I'm not so sure that I can see this as the Crazy Moody I've grown to love in the books. In fact he scares me half to death. The man looks like he's dead, or at least rotting. It's a great picture...but not MadEye Moody.

:-) G. H. 'Trace' Webster III replies: "Are you sure? I sat with the description IN MY HAND when I drew this. For clarity, I have quoted it, verbatim, below:"A man stood in the doorway, leaning upon a long staff, shrouded in a black traveling cloak. Every head in the Great Hall swiveled toward the stranger, suddenly brightly illuminated by a fork of lightning that flashed across the ceiling. He lowered his hood, shook out a long mane of grizzled, dark gray hair, then began to walk up toward the teachers' table. A dull clunk echoed through the Hall on his every other step. He reached the end of the top table, turned right, and limped heavily toward Dumbledore. Another flash of lightning crossed the ceiling. Hermione gasped. The lightning had thrown the man's face into sharp relief, and it was a face unlike any Harry had ever seen. It looked as though it had been carved out of weathered wood by someone who had only the vaguest idea of what human faces are supposed to look like, and was none too skilled with a chisel. Every inch of skin seemed to be scarred. The mouth looked like a diagonal gash, and a large chunk of the nose was missing. But it was the man's eyes that made him frightening. One of them was small, dark, and beady. The other was large, round as a coin, and a vivid, electric blue. The blue eye was moving ceaselessly, without blinking, and was rolling up, down, and from side to side, quite independently of the normal eye - and then it rolled right over, pointing into the back of the man's head, so that all they could see was whiteness" (Goblet of Fire, chapter twelve: The Triwizard tournament)"

Just great pic. The only one of Moody I've found in Elfwood so far, but GREAT! Any chance to make Snape's portret ;-)?You are so accurate with details, I'd love to see Potions Master in you gallery.

Spiff. 2 It's always neat to see people depictions of book characters before they show up on screen. I envisioned him as being more like a scrawny cross between the Hunchback of Notre Dame and Igor of the B&W Frankenstein movies. Wonderful line quality. I can never get pens to do that for me. Maybe I should get out that whip and get them into shape. *l*
