Art: Sketch #2: Draco (G)

Title: Sketch #2: Draco
Character(s): Draco
Rating: G
Created with: Painter X
Beta: The fabulous [livejournal.com profile] marguerite_26 and [livejournal.com profile] stellamoon
Notes: This is number two of three sketches for [livejournal.com profile] nursedarry and [livejournal.com profile] cassie_black12, as a contribution to the [livejournal.com profile] hp_uk_meetup. Thank you for having me participate!









In an earlier stage, [livejournal.com profile] marguerite_26 mentioned he looked a little wolfish. I think he retained that quality in this finished piece, and I rather like it. :D

I very much hope he's appealing to you!

Also, I'm proud to say he's now in the home of the lovely [livejournal.com profile] melusinahp. ♥

Look for the last one on Friday. :)



The set: Sketch #1: Harry, Sketch #2: Draco, Sketch #3: The Kiss

yes, he is still wolfish. :D

Which is beyond perfect for mel. That worked out so nicely.
I adore this Draco so damn much. His face and eyes and lips! There's just something about him that is just perfect for how I picture Draco. Not too pretty, and yet stunning. Fantastic job.

I couldn't believe it! I was so excited when she told me. :D Too awesome.

I'm just still so excited that you like this that much, and it's especially meaningful to me that he's your Draco. I'm always stunned when I'm able to capture how another person sees the character in their mind. Thank you, dearest!

Another beauty! I love the tree at his back and how some of those characteristics have transferred to Draco himself. The falling leaves in the background and his tousled hair. Perfect. :D

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-10-08 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you!! :D I've been in such an autumn spirit and just had to include that atmosphere. Very glad you think it worked well and like the different elements. *hugs*

[identity profile] snarkyscorp.livejournal.com 2009-10-07 03:57 pm (UTC)(link)
SO beautiful. I absolutely adore that "wolfish" quality you and Maggie say he has. I definitely agree, and it just makes him even more Draco to me. *_*

Can't wait for more!!!!! :D

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-10-08 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
How fabulous you like the wolfish look, too! I'm so happy you think it fitting of him, that's just awesome. Thank you, hon!! :D

Yay! Thank you so much! :)

[identity profile] thilia.livejournal.com 2009-10-07 04:20 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm repeating myself but... I'm in love :D

Soooo beautiful... *pets him*

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-10-08 04:39 am (UTC)(link)
That really makes me happy, thank you! Hee hee! Watch it, he might bite. ;D

GUH, beautiful counterpart to Harry. The artists on my f-list are destroying my brain with their awesome today. *happy blissful sigh* This is just gorgeous. I love his eyes and his lips and his hair and the leaves and...

Mmmmmm.

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-10-08 04:43 am (UTC)(link)
I know! There's such fabulous art everywhere today, and it's the most wonderful thing. My brain is destroyed right along with yours, haha!

Thank you so much! *hugs*

Oh, that's lovely!

Thanks so much! :D

Another fabulous picture - I still can't decide which is my favourite

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-10-08 04:52 am (UTC)(link)
Hee! Thank you, babe. ♥

[identity profile] brknhalo241.livejournal.com 2009-10-07 04:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, holy cow!!

I adore this. Draco has a bit of a predatory look about him but, there's also this concealed vulnerability that says he'll happily expose his belly to the right person. You did such a beautiful job in creating a Draco who is hiding himself yet exposing just enough to betray just how strong his feelings are. Gorgeous!!

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-10-08 05:00 am (UTC)(link)
Oooh, those are just my thoughts exactly!! That is, in every way, how I wanted to portray him. I really think that those elements are key pieces to his personality, and I'm ecstatic you think they show up in this so well. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

[identity profile] melusinahp.livejournal.com 2009-10-07 04:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah ha ha! He's werewolf!Draco, my favourite kind. :D

It's funny, but he looks so like the image I have of Draco in my head that the first time I saw this it looked familiar. I am so, so lucky. *beams* ♥ ♥

Is there any chance you could email me a copy without the "commission" so I can make it my desktop?

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-10-08 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
Yes! :D I think it's so fitting that this piece is yours, how awesome and really perfect!

...the first time I saw this it looked familiar.

I'm speechless! ♥ Wow, it doesn't get any better than that. *snuggles*

Of course, lovey! Sending straight away. :)

Oh, yeah, there is something a little lupine around his eyes. He's gorgeous...and a perfect counterpart to the Harry you posted the other day.

I am awash in fanart love today...how do you all do it? ♥

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-10-08 06:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee, Maggie had said it was specifically the eyes, too! Thank you, darling! I'm happy to hear he's a good match for the sketch of Harry. :D

Fanart has been fabulous and abundant lately! It's really lovely to see. ♥

Oh, ME LIKE! I really like his lips. I think the eyes are making him look a bit wolfish and dangerous. And that = RAWR.

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-10-08 06:30 pm (UTC)(link)
YAY! Thank you! Draco is rather hot when dangerous, isn't he? Delighted you find him dangerous and wolf-like and rawr in this. :D

[identity profile] empress-jae.livejournal.com 2009-10-07 06:49 pm (UTC)(link)
so THAT'S what harry was smirking at. god, i love his eyes; even without color, they're so piercing. they just pull you in.

wonderful, wonderful work!

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-10-08 06:37 pm (UTC)(link)
*beams* Wow! It's wonderful to hear that his eyes do draw you in because it's hard to get that in a drawing. I'm so pleased! Thank you. ♥

[identity profile] stellamoon.livejournal.com 2009-10-07 08:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Yep, he's still gorgeous! I keep waiting for him to blink. And maybe snarl a little. LOL.

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-10-08 06:39 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL yes, I'd say this Draco could snarl rather well!! :D Thank you, darling!

[identity profile] serendipity-008.livejournal.com 2009-10-07 08:27 pm (UTC)(link)
OMG he is as gorgeous as Harry, maybe even more so!
The background with the tree looks really cool, especially since it blends in with Draco himself.
I LOVE this :D

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-10-09 06:43 am (UTC)(link)
I'm so glad you like how the tree looks and like Draco as well as you did Harry. Thank you!! :D

[identity profile] dark0feenix.livejournal.com 2009-10-07 09:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Stunning!

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-10-09 06:45 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you so much! :D

[identity profile] mystressxoxo.livejournal.com 2009-10-07 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
*dies* I love light colored eyes in sketches! It's really a talent to do that... I have a weakness for light eyes, and looking at this drawing made me revert back to a teenage-like crush... or that's the only way I can explain it! *guh* He's gorgeous... *whines* I want, I want, I want!!! Yeah, definitely a teenage tantrum there! Look at what you do to me!! *glomps* =^;^=

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-10-09 06:53 am (UTC)(link)
*flails* I read this comment and you have me smiling like mad! You are fabulous, thank you so much! I'm glad you know that it is a bit tricky to draw light eyes and have them sparkle, and it's really an interesting thing to try to do. I'm just absolutely delighted that you like him! *hugs you to pieces* Thank you, again, my lovely! ♥

[identity profile] lotus-lizzy.livejournal.com 2009-10-07 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Sooooo pretty. I just want to touch his hair :)

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-10-09 07:05 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, do touch! But be careful - this one might nip at your fingers. ;)) Thank you so much! *hugs*

Yes, the eyes have it. As do the lips, the hair, and even the choice of clothing. Stunning. Thank you again!

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-10-09 07:14 am (UTC)(link)
:)) You are too sweet, babe. *hugs* Thank you!

[identity profile] beatnikspinster.livejournal.com 2009-10-07 09:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Very beautiful! I love his face, and the soft quality of your lines.

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-10-09 07:26 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I'm thrilled you like this! It really means a huge amount to me, as I greatly esteem and adore your artwork (your sense of humor is just spot on - exactly my cuppa and delivered in such fabulous style). Thank you!

[identity profile] themostepotente.livejournal.com 2009-10-07 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Mmm, Mintsy, he is too damned beautiful ♥

Beautiful work; love his hair, and the clothes and setting in particular.
Yum; so elegant.

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-10-09 07:43 am (UTC)(link)
Oh! I'm delighted you find him elegant, as elegance was definitely something I hoped to express. I also love knowing what you particularly enjoyed. Thank you so much!

[identity profile] enchanted-jae.livejournal.com 2009-10-07 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Ooooooh! *pets his hair*

[identity profile] pink-mint.livejournal.com 2009-10-09 07:48 am (UTC)(link)
*squishes you* Mind your fingers - he might nip. ;D Thanks so much!
