Description I drew this sketchy outline of a possible mini comic whilst on holiday, due to weight restrictions out my flight I couldn't take my commissions and drawing stuff out with me, so whilst I was there I used some paper to sketch this idea.

It's always amused me that one of Harry's first signs of magic is that his stubborn hair grows back overnight.
I feel like I should replace Harry's face in the last frame with a Troll face saying 'Problem?'.

(By the way this is a 2 page comic placed very roughly together so needs to be looked at as such, I know it's scrapy at best but... haven't the time to complete at the moment)
This is a sketch, so if I ever go back to it things will be changed for example I forgot to leave the tuft of fringe and Aunt Petunia is supposed to be using scissors. I didn't refer to the book before drawing. My bad!

Another time, after Aunt Petunia gave him a terrible haircut that left him nearly bald, he woke the following morning to find his hair had regrown.

As to commissions I have completed over 11 commissions, 2 of which I have uploaded the others I am unable to upload since the recipient has asked me not to. I am working through the list as fast as I can. I'm sorry about the wait!!

"okay Petunia I hate James Potter's appearance but you're a jealous hypocritical bitch in punishing him for an accidental magic, you should know it is so normal!" Β (Snape... ah who knows if, in Occlumency, looking at Harry's memories he thought a little better about the boy!)

Oh there are plenty of things wrong with it, I didn't refer to the book before sketching it. If I ever go back to completing the drawing I will change these things

Way too cute! I love little Harry, and I see this as something that very well could have happened. (As in, their facial expressions.)

Good job, dudette. I remember reading something about her leaving only an ugly fringe to "over that horrible scar of his" (that line just stuck with me because the image is, frankly, hilarious).

Catching-Smoke In reply to NinnyTreetops [2011-09-18 01:23:24 +0000 UTC]

Ah crap, forgot about the fringe! And that was the funniest part! Like a Morrissey fringe gone horribly wrong.

I didn't just make it up then lol I remember that bit too and just imagine Harry with a skinhead do apart from a huge tufty fringe lol

you're totally right, there was a fringe, she left some bangs to cover the scar. Hilarious
