When I first saw the title of Roma's fic, I never heard of it! *headdesk* Then I clicked the link and read the first couple of paragraphs and it all came flooding back!!

I love the way you've captured the determination in Scorpius' eyes, I don't remember him having a scar from his mouth to his cheek, but that just means I'll have to re-read it! :)

Fabulous job as always sweetie!

eta: *headdesk* So many spelling mistakes. I shouldn't try to comment with my iphone at 4am!

Thank you, sweetie! I'm so glad Scorpius has that determination which was present in Roma's fic. :-)

God, he's beautiful, even with the scar. Those lips!

Stunning job, as always hon. ♥

[pink-mint.livejournal.com]

Thank you, darling! I'm glad you think he's beautiful, scar and all. ♥

[melusinahp.livejournal.com]

Wow. That is a powerful piece of art. His eyes, his whole expression. I'm blown away. Also the detail of the shadows and the pattern on the fabric is amazing. How long did that take you?

I love the background too.

Utterly beautiful, lovely, one of your best, I think.

[pink-mint.livejournal.com]

Thank you, sweetheart! I'm so glad you like Scorpius's eyes and expression in this. The fabric did take a while to do. :-)

I'm delighted you think this is one of my best. ♥

[okydoky.livejournal.com]

Absolutely gorgeous. ♥

[pink-mint.livejournal.com]

Thank you! ♥

[calanthe-fics.livejournal.com]

Wow, your technique is coming on in leaps and bounds. The painterly effect particularly in his skin tones is a pleasure to stare at. Lovely!

[pink-mint.livejournal.com]

Aw, thank you, honey! I'm glad you think my technique is improving. ♥

[entrenous88.livejournal.com]

Oh, he's so confrontational and determined! I love it.

[pink-mint.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I'm glad you think Scorpius has those qualities in this - just what I hoped to capture. :-D

[in-praesenti.livejournal.com]

Oh, WOW! His expression! Those eyes! His hair! The details! You, are simply amazing.

I loved Possession of the Heart - it was one of the rare occasions I read anything other than H/D, until now I'm glad I took that chance and did it. This fabulous piece of art complements it perfectly ♥

[pink-mint.livejournal.com]

Thank you, sweetie!

For me, too, it was one of the few times I stray from H/D, and wow, it's such a great fic! But then it's by Roma, so of course it is. :-) I'm delighted you think this compliments it. ♥

[elainemalfoy.livejournal.com]

Gorgeous!
I haven't even read the story yet, but I see so much just in this picture
XD

[pink-mint.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I'm so glad you see a lot about the story this piece. And if you haven't read it yet, I hope you do, because it's great. :-)

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

Stunning. absolutely STUNNING!

Those eyes! and that scar. I could stare and him for hours and just want to understand him. wonderfully done. ♥

[ineffably-roma.livejournal.com]

Hmm, Well you might want to turn off "View in my style" when wondering over to my journal. LOL I'll be putting him up this weekend. :)

So utterly seductive and dangerous. I just love how Scorpius' long hair trails down his back. I also love how much he does not look like your Draco. :) The details of hair, skin and the pattern of his shirt are just stunning. ♥

Re: Worth Any Price

[pink-mint.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much, babe! I'm glad you like Scorpius's hair and the details. ♥

[stellamoon.livejournal.com]

That is amazing! My favorite of yours so far! You have totally captured a connection with the subject through his eyes. Very arresting!
Gorgeous work!

[pink-mint.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much, Stella! I'm delighted you like Scorpius in this. :-)

[besamislabios]

He's beautiful, his eyes are so expressive. He's truly captivating.
All the details are exquisite, the pattern on the shirt, the gold chain, his hair...the scar...wow, this is really amazing. *adores*

[pink-mint.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you like Scorpius in this and also enjoyed the details. Thank you so much! :-)

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

Dayum, Mintsy, that is STUNNING. The scar, the expression, just... wow!

[pink-mint.livejournal.com]

Thank you, babe! So glad you liked! ♥

[dysonrules.livejournal.com]

WOOT! I was wondering what Rom has been flailing on about lately! :D

Lovely! She's got to be ecstatic! *glomps you*

[ineffably-roma.livejournal.com]

LOL Rom is more than ecstatic!

[hogwartshoney.livejournal.com]

Holy sh*t, that's fantastic! Look at those eyes!

*stares*

Don't even remember whether I read the fic, but I certainly will now, especially as I have this Scorpius to imagine.

Love the texture of his shirt, the chain around his neck and the highlights in his hair.... well.. the entire thing, really ;o)

Thank you! So glad you like his eyes and the details. :-D

[ineffably-roma.livejournal.com]

Ha ha ha ha ha. *dead*

Oh my wonderful PM, He's so perfect. Yes, he is beautiful and dangerous. You captured the feeling perfectly.

And that robe. OMG!!!! The blue can be both for Ravenclaw and Harry's favourite colour midnight blue. I can't get over how detailed it is. And the chain. How the hell did you do that? And thank you for the long hair. If I remember correctly your not a fan of long hair on Draco so giving it Scorpius was so great. I love how you do hair. The texture and colours are amazing.

And now the face. He's so pretty but so masculine and he has that edge that every Hit Wizards should have. The scar turned out great. I'm not sure what I like better those full lips or those amazing eyes.

Thank you so much. I'm going to treasure this for years.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Hee! now to make the banner!

BTW I love the name you gave to the piece. It fits in so many ways.

[pink-mint.livejournal.com]

Darling, I'm still so excited that you like this and like my Scorpius here. I am thrilled you think I've captured that beautiful and dangerous essence so present in your fic. :-)

I'm glad you like Scorpius's robe and the particular shade of blue, and I'm glad you like the details in his chain and his hair.

I'm glad you like the title, too! :-D

Thank you so much for writing that fic and that awesome Scorpius. I couldn't be happier that you like what I've done with him. ♥ ♥ ♥

[alisanne.livejournal.com]

My goodness, he is really fabulous. :)

[pink-mint.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :-D

[alaana-fair.livejournal.com]

Guh. He's so very gorgeous!!! That's still on my to read list! I really need to get to it, don't I?!?!

[pink-mint.livejournal.com]

Thank you, babe!! Yes! Read it! :-D

[potteresque_ire]

OMG OMG OMG OMG *iz incoherent* Even better than what I have imagined for Rom's story, which is one of my favorite fics of hers.

Those eyes... so young and yet so soulful—strong too in their determination, but there's mystique in there... like I don't quite know what he's so determined for—and the danger, as Rom said above. They are dangerous and at the same time they are willing to risk dangers... walk through fire and tread on floods. I want to look into them forever. I figure that this is the scene with him in his blue robe? (such gorgeousness and sexiness). I love the texture of his hair and his skin... and the scar. The imperfection that is just perfect.

Your art is just so intense even if it is meant to be a still portrait. It's perfect for the Potters and the Malfoys....

*goes back to staring*

[pink-mint.livejournal.com]

Sweetheart! I'm so delighted you like Scorpius in this. :-D

I love that you see determination and mystique, too, in this. Mystique is a wonderful quality. Yes, this is the scene with him in his blue robe. I'm so glad you like the details in his hair and skin, and I'm also so glad you like the scar.

Wow! That is such a sweet compliment that you think my art is perfect for the Potters and Malfoys. You have utterly made my day. ♥

[snottygrrl.livejournal.com]

i have no words to adequately express my awe over this picture ♥

[pink-mint.livejournal.com]

Thank you! That alone has made me happy. ♥

now I absolutely have to read this fic...

[lolitapopsicle.livejournal.com]

This is gorgeous! Those eyes! My god!


Breathtaking.

Re: now I absolutely have to read this fic...

[pink-mint.livejournal.com]

Thank you! So glad you like his eyes. :-)

[dark0feenix.livejournal.com]

God! He's bloody gorgeous! How do you do that? Amazing art, really.

[pink-mint.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! I'm glad you think he's gorgeous. :-)

[enchanted-jae.livejournal.com]

That is utterly stunning.

[pink-mint.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[crazyparakiss.livejournal.com]

Stunning.

[pink-mint.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[falconer007.livejournal.com]

The hair, the hair, I can't stop staring at the hair. And the chain. Whatever you call that technique you use w/ these thin strokes and the highlights-whatever, it looks gorgeous and so real!

[pink-mint.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I'm delighted you like his hair and the chain and think it looks realistic. :-)
