"The Founders"
[Pencil]
Completed early 2001
I'd always wanted to do a pic of the four Hogwarts founders, and I was experimenting with their designs in this sketch. I like these designs of them (Helga, Godric, Salazar, Rowena), but they're terribly out of proportion with each other... *sigh* Ah well. Let's see... I saw Helga as a very sunny girl, not necessarily beautiful, but very cute. I gave her a totally anachronistic hairstyle, but I think it suits this vision of her. Godric was supposed to be blonde at first, but then I thought the "Parn" look (from Loddoss War) would suit him, so he has short brown hair now. Very wholesome-looking. ^^ And Salazar, from the first time I heard of him, was instantly my "long, silver-haired guy" of series! ^^ C'mon, we've GOT to have one of those! Hee hee! Rowena, I think, was heavily influenced by Alexial of "Angel Sanctuary," because I saw her to be a withdrawn but wise woman, very beautiful and regal. There you have it! NEwayz, as I never got around to doing another pic of them, I decided to put up a goofy coloring of this sketch here.
