Snape, and then some Snape

[sigune]

Oooh, what an exciting time to be back in fandom! Having signed up for hoggywartyxmas, I saw that snapecase is making a return too! Squee! I wish the sign-ups were open already! *dances*


snapecase: Celebrating Severus Snape throughout his ages!

Meanwhile, have a piccy. As you can see, no pencils were harmed in the making of this, because it was drawn directly with ballpoint pen in my notebook, hence the wonky chair and - all the other wonkiness. I hope to post some stuff from art school to show how I have been getting on - you'll see we haven't been doing perspective yet ;).



This is where I am with my imagining Snape's life after the Battle of Hogwarts. He has spent 20 years visiting all known (and some unknown) wizarding schools and has been studying magic intensively. Now he is ready to carry out his masterplan of founding a wizarding university. Desmond Avery has been using his network to raise funds, and Brynhild has been concentrating on drawing up the statutes and looking into the legal and organisational side of things.

Yay to ballpoint pens!

I'm of two minds about the Snapecase - one part of me wants to participate, the other half knows that, after one month (December) spent reading fics every day, first for the SS/HG gift fest, then HoggywartyXmas, in January I generally don't have the energy/interest in going on with fics any longer. So I would probably end up producing something for the fest, but failing to follow the fest itself.

I'm not doing SSHG, obviously, so I think I may have some oomph left after Hoggywarty ;).

I started to use ballpoint pens because I never press my pencils hard enough, and since ballpoint pens use ink, I get some more scan-able and permanent(ish) sketches that way. And getting these really fine etchy lines is fun, of course :). But it's hit or miss without pencils.
