Alright, out of the inspiration of looking at people who can actually draw, and a rather persistant cos buddy....I decided to draw.
*screams pierce the air whereas the area quickly turns into mass confusion....*
Alright, enough of my pessimism, here's my pic, so please, if you make fun of it, keep it minimal :) It's of when Hermione's charmed teapot is running around Harry's in Charms....(I haven't sketched in a long time so be leniant!)
Sorry the clarity is so small as well, I had to resize it to a rather small size because it was such a large attatchment....
EDIT:
Scene (pg 680 American version Chpt. "Grawp":
"Well, yes, that occurred to me too," said Hermione, allowing her teacup to jog in neat little circles around Harry's, whose stubby little lets were still unable to touch the desktop. "I've been wondering whether Mundungus has persuaded them to sell stoloen goods or something awful...."

First of all: everyone can draw! :agree:
And about your drawing: that looks great!! You did a great job on the angles of the table and the teapots. Really, I would like to see more of your work!
Actually I can't remember that scene in the book, I really have to read it again...

Aww. Thanks Isaraniel for the much needed moral support :)
Secondly, here's the scene:
Ootp American version pg. 680
"Well, yes, that occurred to me too," said Hermione, allowing her teacup to jog in neat little circles around Harry's, whose stubby little lets were still unable to touch the desktop. "I've been wondering whether Mundungus has persuaded them to sell stoloen goods or something awful...."
Hope that provides some recollection :)

That is a great drawing, Ecthelion. I love how you drew the bricks, and the WOOD GRAINS on the table! WOW. That must have taken a lot of work. You didn't just draw those grains on the table top, you drew it on the window frame as well. That is "attention to detail."
I also love how you portrayed Hermione's teacup to look elegant, but Harry's teacup is chubby and ordinary looking. :lol:
The perspective on the table top is a nice touch as well.
The shadow of the cups also grounds them in realism.
Ecthelion, this is really great work. Keep drawing!

Hee, hee...cute! :) Clever scene to choose to illustrate, too...something most people probably wouldn't have thought of.

Thank you Perdita and Inkwolf!
Perdita: The amount of detail was put there in an effort to make up for the lack of talent in the other fields.... :whistle: Thanks for the big and complicated sounding words though!
Inkwolf: The reason I picked that particular scene is because there were no figures to draw (:tu:) and for the very reason you stated:
something most people probably wouldn't have thought of.
Exactly. Then there's hardly anybody to compare with :D

Yay! The flirting teacups!
:D Very nicely done, Ecthelion. I love how the legs on Harry's teacup are wiggling around so desperately. :) The detail and shading effect is also excellent. Good work.

Ecs!!! How are you!
Your sketch.......it looks good.
Though I kinda picture these teacups didn't have feet, just stubs for legs.
But Harry's cup looks funny and frantic! :rotfl:
Great work!

Aw, that's a really sweet drawing. Lots of attention to detail, like the perspective and grain, even the little shadows on the teacups. It's always good to see new fan artists posting! Just keep it up :)

foamy_rocks - It just had to be resized in order for me to post it here....and in the process it was heavily pixelized....nothing I could do!
