I absoultely love the feeling of this! It feels like a dreamy picture book, and the last frame is just perfect. <3

This is absolutely stunning. Severus hurrying out to meet the bus, Harry's face, the snow...just gorgeous.

Thank you very much :) I very much like the idea of Snape forgetting to grab an extra jacket and running straight into a little blizzard to see Harry ... now THAT's love :) Thank you!

I love this! The story is effortlessly conveyed without words, Harry's face is so sweet and Snape's is so wonderfully Snapey, and the clock at the end is just the perfect capper. Go Team Romance! *g*

Hehe, thank you! I'm glad it seemed effortless (while it was quite the contrary), but that means it was very easy to read, which is wonderful to hear as a storyteller! And I have problems drawing Snape the way I want to, I'm glad you think he's Snapey enough :) :) Thank you!!!

I love your Harry. Very nice.

Thank you very much, sweets! ♥

Aww, this is absolutely wonderful. I particularly like the way most of the panels don't show the subject directly -- we only get little glimpses of Snape as he's hurrying out of the house, and then we see their reunion from afar through the window. Very effective -- and it gives the full-on shot of Harry (adorable!!) even greater impact. ♥

October 21 2006, 09:34:45 UTC 5 years ago

Thank you! I was trying very hard to be subtle in my panels :) Besides, it gets a little boring doing panel after panel of just face shots, so I tried to challenge myself and limited myself to.. ONE (the Harry!~~)! :) Thank you!! You read my intentions perfectly~!

love it love it love it! Snape running down the stairs and all you see is his hair! The angry bearded portrait! The beautiful, cold outside scene with the bus! Harry's RED scarf! And, of course, the clock with the happy and scowling faces. An absolute DREAM come true! Wonderful! Bravo!

[info]chupachup

October 21 2006, 09:33:41 UTC 5 years ago

TEEHEE! I'm so glad you like the angry bearded potrait :) I didn't think anyone would pay it too much mind, it's such a minor detail :) Thank you, my dear! Your comment is a dream come true, thank you for the sweet words! ♥

This is phenomenal! I so love the entire feeling in these. The one where Severus is sitting waiting for Harry, is perfectly Beautiful.

The whole piece is Perfection! Well done.

THANK YOU! I'm very honored you like it so much, thank you! ♥ I'm rather fond of the sitting panel as well, it's probably the panel I spent the most time on :)

Sweet! Nice touch with the colours too.

AHAHAHA SNAPE'S FACE in the clock! That's wonderful!!
It is obvious how much work you put into this.
The panels of Snape alone are breath taking. The sketchyness of the eyes, the shot of the back of his head glancing out the window... you can just tell his expression even though his face is hidden.

And then the speed of him running down the stairs and out of the house. Fucking delightful.

And the steam of breath from Harry. Wow. You rocked your prompts.

Re: 9-9-9!!!

More specifically, awesome work with the blurry objects in the foregrounds. And those little clock faces? You are too clever!

That is absolutely stunnigly put together.
I think I have a sugar high now ;-)

This is absolutely charming. I love everything about it, the overhead perspective of Snape in the top panel, the close-up of his eyes as the music snaps him awake, the cinematic cuts from frame to frame of his black hair flying as he races outside, then the lovely stillness of the long-distance view of him walking toward the bus. Then the same treatment of Harry disembarking, all fragments and glimpses, before suddenly we're allowed to see him through Snape's eyes, in all his windblown, rosy-cheeked glory. (Love his cloudy breath, btw.) He's so pretty and so glowing here, with his blazing red Gryffindor scarf. Then - another brilliant choice - to switch perspectives again and peer down on them from above, through the window where Snape had been sitting. It makes the flurry of movement as Harry flings himself into Snape's arms even more enchanting. And the clock! Yay! What a perfect conclusion!

The only thing I miss, because I want to see how you would have drawn it, is Snape as viewed through Harry's eyes. I would have loved a clear look at his face a split second before he gets an armful of Harry. But nevermind. This is a feast of riches just as it is.

I think I kind of want to cry. In a warm fuzzy way of course. Magnificent, love.

Harry's face is what makes this entry perfect ;0;
Last frame was great too. Snow makes everything feel so much more warmer.

OMG So cute!!

That close up on Harry's face is just beautiful. So too is Severus looking out the window. Absolutely lovely! :)

Damn it...

I love the colors, they are very strong but not overwhelming. I like the red simbolism of passion it is well chosen. I am a fan of the team angst not team romance but this is better than anything I might have wanted so you, damn it, have won me over...*grudgingly*stupid artists, making me feel all warm and fuzzy inside...

Ohhhh this is so beautiful!! I love how we don't see Snape's face until he meets Harry, and Harry's face is so happy it glows. Oh, that lovely blush! The contrast between snow and the warm cozyness of their home is inredibly heart-warming!
Lovely, lovely!!

Hey ! You've done it again ! How does your art manage to pull my strings like that *_* ? (lol)
Love the coloring and the sketch of Severus' face with his eyes shut is... wowww. You can really recognise him even if we don't have the whole picture !
Love your Harry... he wouldn't be Harry without the red scarf, ne ? (lol)
And finally, wonderful, wonderful use of the wizarding clock at the end. THAT shows the whole meaning of 'home' <3
Well done !

Wow, what an original idea! Love it! Especially that you can't really see the following pictures, so my heart started pumping along with Severus' And so romantic
