Картинко — это
кат, а под ним много всего забавного: и другие рисунки, и тексты.
Художница решила проиллюстрировать "Узника Азкабана", в том числе некоторые сцены, где Снейп главную роль играет. Это все черно-белая графика, а рисунок, послуживший катом, — то, что другой художник решил раскрасить. Это где Снейп Картой Мародеров перед Люпиным трясет: а это, типа, что такое?!
А под катом — вся сцена, где Снейп Гарри ловит после несанкционированного похода в Хогсмид. Потом и другие сцены со Снейпом выложу. )
| The pictures on this page illustrate
one of my favourite scenes in all the Harry Potter books. I
absolutely adore this scene, not because of any emotional import or great
action sequence, but just the raw character interaction - it's like a
writing exercise gone brilliantly right. It's also the best scene to
reread once you know the back story; you can now decipher the subtext, it's infinitely funnier, and getting
into the heads of each of the characters is more rewarding.
Anyway, this picture:
... he bent down, a hand on each arm of
Harry's chair, so that their faces were a foot apart. 'If your head
was in Hogsmeade, so was the rest of you.' (pg. 283, US
edition)
Harry is doing his best to look as innocent as possible...

'Surely you don't need
such a very old piece of parchment?' he said. 'Why
don't I just ... throw this away?'
His hand moved toward the fire.
(pg. 286, US edition)
I had a doozy of a time trying to get this
drawing right. Even now it's not fabulous but it's a lot
better than it was originally.
Snape's face here, no matter what I did,
kept looking like Leonard Nimoy. Apologies to Mr. Nimoy. | |

Snape pointed at the parchment, on which the words of Messrs.
Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs were still shining. An odd,
closed expression appeared on Lupin's face.
'Well?' said Snape.
And, later ... 'You don't think it more likely that he got it directly
from the manufacturers?' (pgs 287-288, US edition)
Okay, so I fudged the stage direction a little to
make it more confrontational ...

'Well!' said Lupin, clapping his hands
together and looking around cheerfully. 'That seems to clear that
up!' (pg. 289, US)
I realized this is one of the very few drawings
I've done of Lupin actually smiling. Poor guy.
