That was absolutley amazing, as always! I love the colors and the expressions on their faces are perfect! Especially James with his 'Now I've got the girl' type of expression. Whatever..

Excellent job!

That's a really interesting use of Narcissa in a piece of fanart!

Wow! v. pretty. Poor Remiebaby :( and we can't see Siri thru Narcissa's big head big pout Why does Side7 upload so slow? Does it upload slow to you?

All your artwork is amazing. It all looks like photography. Your ability to capture a moment in artwork is a rare and wonderful gift. Anyhow, I love this picture because it captures all the characters' personalities so well. Your design for Narcissa is the best I've seen (putting her in a green dress was a nice touch). Keep up the good work and good luck in the Monthly HP contest!

Aww, poor Remus looks so dejected. It's kind of funny, though: I had a dream last night that you had uploaded a new pic, so I come to check it out today, and here it is! Coolness.

!!!!!!!! This is such a cute pic! My sub was pretty ordinary...plus the scanner decided to be a poo and the colours are washy...but enough about me! Geez this pic is good. And I like the way you ventured out a put Narcissa with them; it adds some flavour. ^_^ Great work! ~Reggie-San~

Excellent image, I really like how you did this one. Poor Remus looks so sad, but he does come off as a melancholy sort, doesn't he?

James Looks So Cute!

Gorgeous! Lily and Remus are my favorites in this picture. Lily's expression is priceless, and poor Remus looks so sad. (He's also very short as compared to James!) Narcissa looks great, and for some odd reason I really like the way you did her smokey eye makeup. James is adorable. He looks so happy. Though, I find that he looks different compared to your other drawings of him, but that doesn't make a difference. I wish I could see more of Sirius.. all I can really say about him is that I really like the color you used for his eyes. ^.^ Anyway, great job. I love you work, and I hope to see more!

Oh wow, that's great. My first impression was the ring was on the wrong hand, but maybe I'm taking proposal too far. I really love their expressions, Remus and Lily especially - she looks like she can't believe her eyes! I like the addition of Narcissa with Sirius, and I must read way too much fanfic...I had to try really hard to remember if Sirius' surprise that she married Lucius was from GoF or just the DT! Oy....

Hey Maggie! I noted you on your Elfwood gallery the other day, my name is Laura. I'd just like to say congrats, because this picture came 1st place in the Harry Potter fan art challenge!

Lovely picture. It's brilliant.

That was absoloutely gorgeous. I feel entirely awful for poor Remus (I ship Lily/Remus), having to stand there in the corner all by himself. Very nicely done, I love it.

Congrats on winning with this piece. Keep up the lovely work.

Woah! -blinks, trying to regain senses-....-blinks again...-..Alright. Wonderful picture. Everything draws the eye to Lily perfectly, so huzzah! for that. ^^. For some really strange reason, I get this vibe from Remus that just screams Ewan McGregor's character in Moulin Rouge, Christian (I think..hope..great movie by the way...). Innocent melancholy does that I guess. Or is it the clothes? -confused look- Well, whatever...I just really, really like this piece.

I love your work, each character is so wonderfully expressive, and your color values give the pieces so much depth. One question... Why is the ring on her right hand?

This is so good! You're such a great artist...and you portray Sirius and James just as I imagine them. As for Remus, I've never seen him better than in this picture. I generally see him as a little thinner in the face, but you got pretty damn close to how I imagine him in the Marauders' years. Good job!

I love this picture- it's Gorgeous! Although I am a bit sad that Narcissa makes a better door than a window... oh, and who's hand is on lily's shoulder? Remus is holding a glass, both of sirius' hand are being used- one with a glass, and the other is on Narcissa's shoulder. It must be james', but you can see much of his right hand, and it looks like it is slack, and the other arm seems too far to belong to the hand... dunno, just wondering?

read book 5, sirius and narcissa are cousins.

this is awesome!!! but sirius and narcissa are related... so i dont think they'd be involved with eachother. their cousins! but of course u didnt know, j. k. only says it in book 5!!! i just read that part, and sirius doesnt even like his 'pureblood' family... weird for u to make this wonderful picture and its totally another way! and i'm sure u didnt mean for this to happen... i mean its just such a coinsidence! and i love this picture too... well poor remus is sad! Thats bad!!!!!!!

Wow.. I hafta say that I love Remus in this drawing.. After reading the 5th book in 13 hours straight, I am suddenly drawn to the last living marauder.. what a poor poor baby.. all his best mates gone. sigh who else cried during that book?

Great picture Maggie! But Iddey, I thought they were only cusions because she married into the family O.o? the of course i might be mistaken...

Freak- Beutiful I must say! I love how Remus turned out drool Dimi-Dazed over Lupin's Expression

Remus is gorgeous as usual. Damn Narcissa. Sirius can still come back!!!! If you reread where he falls you'll note he fell through the veil. No body is mention found. Just to note no one can claim Remus now. As you had to have claimed him during 3 or 4 book to have an actual dibbs on him.

you are amazing. i am so jelous of your talent:) i love how you capture the characters' personalities so well in your art. My favorite, by far, is your Tom. Your unique interpretation of Remus is lovely and super rad, as well.

Yeha, Sirius and Narcissa are cousins, but I think it makes sense, because Sirius DID say that there were so few purebloods left they usually intermarried. She's pure evil, but I guess she's also really pretty. He wants the girl, and I bet his familiy would have been happy if they got married or something.....like in Cassie's DV.

whoa! I wish i could draw like that!! i looked at another site, fernblossom.com, but they didn't have any tips...i can draw well, like anime stuff but any tips to be able to draw like you are well appreciated!! :)

Chill, people. This fanart - which is AWESOME by the way - was made AGES before OotP came out - how was Maggie supposed to know Sirius and Narcissa were cousins? Lawd, please use some common sense.

im not critizing you on your sirius with narcissa thing dont worry! I absolutly LOVE this picture! Remus is sooooo adorable, but just one thing im not sure whether or not the ring james gave lily is a wedding ring but if it is, isnt it on the wrong hand?

um, aren't sirius and narcissa related? but this piture lovely anyway. i love the expression on lily's face! and poor remus-baby, feeling a bit left out.

I absolutely love this picture..It is just..WOW. I love it. I love Lily's expression - the sort of I-can't-believe-it look, and her dress - the dark and light purple and buttons.. ^__^ And I love Remus..I love the way you shaped his eyes, and his sad expression, and the ears! XD I also love his hair and eye color, and how one of his hands is stuck in his pocket. James looks perfect - happy, and he also looks a little relieved XD Sirius has that mysterious aura by being slightly hidden by Narcissa, and I love his eyes and that smile that you can still see although he's mostly covered. Narcissa is also drawn really, really well - I love her dress, and that hair clip, and her facial expression. I'm a bit confused about who's hand is on Lily's shoulder - first I thought it was Remus', and now I think it's James'. XD I also love the snow falling outside - it looks a bit cheery and also a little upsetting, like the feeling of this scene. Ack, I love EVERYTHING XD I love all of your pictures, especially this one, and your Remus and Sirius. Exactly how I pictured almost everyone, except Peter looks..too..::shifty eyes:: cute, and all of the Marauders were in Gryffindor, but, oh well. XD Sorry for rambling, I'm off to comment on more of your pictures XD
