Wow! This is brilliant, and amazing and--and--WOW! Snape looks very Snapeish, and that bow tie! Narcissa and Lucius are haughty and cold looking but you can see were Draco gets his good looks from. Sirius drools oh Sirius. Wow. I could eat him up. I now know why he's portrayed as a player, I'd be a player too if I looked like that! And James, well, you can see what Harry has to live up too! He's very handsome. And looking at Lily you can see where he gets those vibrant green eyes! She's beautiful, absolutly gorgeous. Peter looks the way I pictured him and not at all like a Death Eater, which I guess is the point, neh? But I especially like Remus, because he has a peculiar gleam in his eye and the hint of a wolfish grin. Over all? Fantastic, as usual.

Oohh, nice. One question: what's the deal with Narcissa? why does everyone seem to think that her existence has relevancy besides the point that she is draco's mother? (Unless I'm confusing characters and looking like a total idiot) As for the picture, it looks great. Lily is well done, particularly...keep up the good work!

Maggie, I am just astounded by this piece. It's breathtaking. You characterized each character perfectly, so that I knew whom they were immediately. Narcissa's face is perfectly priceless. She looks snooty and posh. Remus' facial structure is very nice, as is Sirius' nose (and Remus' eyes are priceless, too).
This is probably my favorite of your pieces. "I really like this" cannot say enough! Keep up the astounding work!

Wow! I love how you can tell so much about the characters just by their facial expressions and even what theyre wearing. Narcissa and our dear Mr. Malfoy both look extremely stuck up, whereas you can see that snape is just a greasy haired nerd (I must say, I love the bowtie :D) Lily looks beautiful, James, strikingly handsome as always. I love the color of Sirius'eyes, and how Lupin looks like a little puppy who wants to be played with ;) peter looks so cute and innocent too.

Ohh....what hot people you draw! Lucius look very smug, Narcissa look rather lofty!sluty...love that beauty mark and big ear ring! Lily is a darling with those sausage curls and bright eyes. For some reason, Remus look faaaar more mischievous than Sirius with those half-closed naughty gold eyes. And Peter...sigh he looks to cuddly to be evil.
grabs James and runs away Hydy

Eeeee. :D
Sirius looks adorably Brendon Fraser. Remus...yipes. Fangs. James (possibly my favorite) looks just a little bit mischievous and the smile tugging at his lips is too delicious to describe. Lily -- I sort of expect to despise Lily Potter in every picture that I see of her. Also every story. She just seems so sunflowers-and-summer-dresses, so normal, so bleeding nice--but something -- maybe it's the kink in her hair or the gleam in her eye -- makes me love her in your picture. She looks more like someone who's been up to hijinks with her friends and suffered some disappointments and done the scampering little teenager thing. Narcissa (another favorite of mine in the picture) as gorgeous and disdainful as you'd expect. Snape a little Asian-looking and immensely attractive. Looks like the type to camp out at a Sex Pistols concert rather than teach Potions. But, then, his bowtie is revealingly geeky enough. :o). Lucius is...slit-eyed and catlike and more than a little frightening, but with the perfect hateful sneer.
You're an amazing artist, Magsby. schnoogles
Ooo... Very pretty! I must say, your colouring is rivals with your drawing talent. But I'm sure you must be up to here makes several gestures to explain with people complimenting you. You're just an artist throws in a cheesy accent Doing what artists do best!
