Comments are very welcome. :) Nerual August 18th, 2004, 5:54 pm Thats great! I love the coloring. I think you captured Lilys joy very nicley! Shes got nice white straight teeth to. Those really stand out in the whole drawing! meganne August 18th, 2004, 6:23 pm :wow: .......That is really really good...i just love the way you drew her...ITS AWESOME!...she just looks wonderful. Aoweil August 18th, 2004, 8:34 pm That's really good, Mrs Black. The colors and shading are excellent! :tu: The more I look at your drawing, the more Lily looks like Julia Roberts! Kate Johnson August 18th, 2004, 10:13 pm That is a really beautiful piece of artwork :) Morgause August 18th, 2004, 10:47 pm That's amazing! The colour is really well done, especially the sunlight effect. Did you use a picture? The only problem is that her eyes aren't green...Oh well, it's still a beautiful drawing! Mrs Black August 18th, 2004, 10:59 pm Thank you very much. :) Well, I have to say, that my scanner is really not the best and did not catch all colours the right way. The eyes are green, but my scanner turned them darker, so they seem to be black or brown...*sighs* Yes, I used a picture, but it was only as a guide line - the characteristics of the face were done by imagination. ScarletRose199 August 19th, 2004, 12:08 am Wow that is so great! I'm lovin it! Inkwolf August 19th, 2004, 1:00 am Beautiful drawing!!! :tu: madhatter6 August 19th, 2004, 3:49 am good drawing *claps for you* Morgause August 19th, 2004, 1:47 pm [QUOTE=Mrs Black]Well, I have to say, that my scanner is really not the best and did not catch all colours the right way.

DragonBlk17 August 19th, 2004, 1:48 pm Wow, that's a really good picture. It looks like it was actually photographed and then you drew a picture of it. Good work! :tu: Classical_Wizar August 19th, 2004, 1:55 pm wow I'm speechless, love it and would be looking forward to more work of yours Purple Banana August 21st, 2004, 4:28 pm It's wonderful! She's so realistic. :wow: SilverStar August 22nd, 2004, 7:13 am Wow, that is great! Hesperim August 22nd, 2004, 4:06 pm I really love this picture - it's close to how I picture Lily. You're an amazing artist, well done! Angelgirl August 22nd, 2004, 5:05 pm You have thought of a career in art right. It is absolutly fabulous. harry_aayush August 23rd, 2004, 7:18 pm :elaugh: Not boasting or anything, LOL, but I myself am a good artist but you, unlike me, seem to be a professional. Really, that's a great piece of artwork there. I would suggest Warnerbros to choose Lily's character in the forthcoming movies by taking inspiration from your drawing. Really, that's a great lot of hardwork you have put in there, I suppose. Keep up the good work! :tu: loopdeedoo123 September 16th, 2004, 12:35 am WOW!!! That is amazing!! You are REALLY talented!! I really like her eyes. You definitely captured the emotion in them. Keep drawing!!!!!!!!!! Kola_Pup September 16th, 2004, 12:37 am yeh, OMG! that is SOOOOOO good! best one I've seen so far!!! do anthor drawing! beyond_the_veil September 23rd, 2004, 1:42 am That's a really good drawing! I like the smile and the angle and it's really really good! jesssa September 23rd, 2004, 1:59 am sort of how i picture Lily. She looks like Natalie Portman in that picture. Good job :tu: CarolinaGirl03 September 23rd, 2004, 3:22 am That's really good!! I like the colors ... and its looks so realistic! In the thumbnail I thought it was a real picture of someone! ZoeBlaize September 23rd, 2004, 3:26 am Hey, I actually like this. Most realistic-style art is pretty crappy and/or melodramatic, but this is very well done. Keep it up! agpotter September 23rd, 2004, 9:58 pm I must also agree that it looks rather like Julia Roberts... That nose, those teeth, that was the first thing I thought when I saw it. It's not exactly the Lily I see in my mind, but it's a nice drawing. MeaMuse September 24th, 2004, 11:36 pm Oh, she's absolutely lovely! What a gorgeous drawing. I particularly like your shading work :) dumbleedore September 25th, 2004, 12:52 pm Wow- that is totally incredible!!! DsolateDreaming September 25th, 2004, 4:37 pm Holy crud@! O.O Thats to awesome Mrs Black!! ::Stares:: Your so awesome at art its unbeleivable! O__O ILHPB September 26th, 2004, 7:25 am Awesome picture crookshanks1177 October 9th, 2004, 7:07 pm Beautiful work! I see people pointing out the resembelence to Julia Roberts. I honestly thought of Geena Davis (spelling?) "Cutthroat Island" I can't think of any other movies with her right off hand. But the high pretty cheek bones made me think of her with that red hair. :cool: werewolf girl October 9th, 2004, 7:27 pm She looks so real! It is a GREAT picture! Okirun October 22nd, 2004, 2:34 am Wow, you made her so beautiful! I love her expression -^__^- The shading looks great, & I really like how you drew her mouth. skizzles! *o*. Yrraine October 31st, 2004, 4:57 pm The smile is the best part--it looks completely natural, matches the expression in her eyes. hp007 October 31st, 2004, 9:34 pm ITS AMAZING. or rather, YOU'RE amazing! SUPER COOL JOB! Mrs Black November 1st, 2004, 4:57 pm Thanks a lot for all the nice comments! :blush: Hm, I have to say, I agree with everybody who said that this picture resembles Julia Roberts (it's also my opinion ^^)... ;) -crookshanks1177: Cutthroat Island is this movie with the pirates, isn't it? Or am I mixing it up with some over movie? luvstor_hpbooks December 4th, 2004, 4:21 am that is sooo GOOD! It's very realistic, and has a good depiction on her lips. one of the first things i noticed about the picture. good job :tu: Giebfried January 2nd, 2005, 12:21 pm :clap: :whistle: eee eee! luv it! fairylight February 5th, 2005, 5:19 am That picture is amazing, and so lifelike! It's exactly like I pictured Lily, lovely and full of youth. Well done :) Trickster February 7th, 2005, 7:38 pm Amazing! You have an awesome talent. She looks a bit like a cross between Julia Roberts and Natalie Portman, I think. hermionegurl February 7th, 2005, 11:51 pm she looks SO REAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! how did you draw that ???????????????? can you teach me how to do that ??????????????????????? i am VERY bad at drawing. :sad: i love it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! agpotter February 8th, 2005, 1:53 am Just curious.... By hyphenating Lily's maiden and last name, are you implying she's the feminist type who would still go by her maiden name? It seems she was always either Lily Evans or Lily Potter, not both hyphenated.... Just a curious musing. :) Mrs Black February 8th, 2005, 4:09 pm Just curious.... By hyphenating Lily's maiden and last name, are you implying she's the feminist type who would still go by her maiden name? It seems she was always either Lily Evans or Lily Potter, not both hyphenated.... Just a curious musing. Well, I hadn't thought about that this way. I just couldn't make out if she is (on this drawing) already married or not, so I just named her both, Evans and Potter. :eyebrows: agpotter February 8th, 2005, 5:45 pm Ah.... Makes perfect sense. Forgive my obnoxiousness... :) Mrs Black February 8th, 2005, 6:17 pm No offence taken. It was a good question ^.^ ... I really had to think about it before answering ;) Aeana_Potter March 23rd, 2005, 8:06 pm it is really really nice and it reminds me a lot of julia roberts for some reason :huh: Chrysalis March 25th, 2005, 11:30 am That is gorgeous! Did you use a model? Shadowboxer March 28th, 2005, 10:41 pm I love this as well! She looks so happy and full of life. I hate all you creative people! :upset: I now have to finish looking at your other drawings so I can appreciate my despair more fully. Scheherezade April 2nd, 2005, 2:00 am I just wanted to say that is the sweetest and most REAL picture I have ever seen of any HP character... it takes you out of the fantasy world and makes you feel like she was a real fun loving beautiful girl. I love it! GinnyPotterroks May 20th, 2006, 10:10 pm WOW! that is REALLY good!wow... spiritedaway123 August 31st, 2006, 8:12 pm Wow...thats amazing. It looks exactly how i pictured Lily in her early 20's. Traveler1113 September 3rd, 2006, 1:16 am Just curious... how do you attach a thumbnail like that? I've tried to attach some stuff in the past, but when I previewed the post it didnt show up so I couldnt be sure that it would show when I submitted it. I never actually tried because I was afraid of looking like an idiot if I was talking about some picture I attached and it wasnt there :no: Also, is there a way of getting around the awful pixely look a picture gets when you make it smaller so it can be uploaded? I hate that :grumble: Mrs Black September 3rd, 2006, 3:33 pm Just curious... how do you attach a thumbnail like that?

I always minimize my pictures to a size of about 700*700px.

I thought eyes were green in the picture... I still love it though it looks really good the colors you drew it with...I love it!!! |
