Description
Fan art of the 'Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince' (by J.K.Rowling) *spoiler* My favourite and one of the most chilling/thrilling scenes in the book. Draco is expressing his fears and crying with/to moaning myrtle, Harry spots them on the map and goes investigating coz he's a nosy bugger, Malfoy who is bowing over a sink, looks up and through tears spots Harry and... well you'll just have to read it! I had the whole chest-bursting sequence from Alien running through my mind as i read the rest...very gruesome. Sketched this whilst watching chamber of secrets.Related content

Great job with making Myrtle semitransparent.

Finally! I have been searching for months for *a* depiction of this scene since it's one of my faves in the book and the first one I come across is stunning! (Bonus!) Absolutely wonderful job - especially Draco's expression - he looks so anguished and desperate.

I always thought draco was an idiot, and then after reading this book i felt so sorry for him, i love him to bits now! I'm happy with the layout of this pic but i would like to do it again, i know i can do better if i took more time on my stuff, this was just a sketch that evolved. I'd love to redo it as a lineart and then colour it one day!

Yes, that would be great to see this in colour!

I love this moment in the book. It made me feel sorry for Draco. He just never shows any other emotion other than hate so it really made me feel for him.
And for Harry as well. He never cares about Malfoy, but then he starts feeling bad for hurting him and it seems that both of their characters are maturing.
Maturing very nicely, I'd say. Maybe in the 7th book they'll finally have an alliance against Volde- I mean, you-know-who.

im just hoping that by the sixth/seventh book Draco's hair will have grown considerably (like in my pics) or i shall be very disappointed!

This is truly amazing! I can feel the atmosphere - almost the same as the one I had while reading this scene. The expressions on the characters and the characers themselves are really good! I like how Harry can be only seen in the shadows in the background.
Very well done!

Thanks, this is how i imagined the scene as i was reading it. I tried to make draco look like an older tom felton with long hair but i couldnt get his face right. Myrtle came out really well though. considering i drew from memory i think i did ok! hee hee
Originally i drew harry in the light, but i wasn't pleased with how he came out. I was just sketching and i don't believe in erasers. lol anyway i just shrouded him in darkness to try and hide the crapness of the drawing!
Thanks again for your lovely comments!

@_@ I can't believe this doesn't have any other comments! What is wrong with people!? This is the best representation of this scene I've seen (no pun intended) so far, and I love your representations of the characters...I can't remember if that's what movie!Myrtle looks like, but it's appropriate for her character, and I know your Draco is different....and I love him! His strained, desperate expression is so well drawn, and the long hair is lovely...none of that slicked-back junk....mm. Harry's expression entertains me - he's all, "Umm....the hell?!" *twitch* *huglove*

yes that is based on the movie myrtle. I tried to age tom felton a bit for this draco, but i was only sketching fast, and didn't have an eraser...so he just looks like this...at least he doesnt look like a woman is all i have to say about that! lol
i love how draco's posture came out in this!
Thanks again...and sorry for late reply!

Ah, k =^.^= You did a good job with him, too - gods know I could neither age anyone, nor draw anything remotely presentable without an eraser! And looking 'like this', in this case, is good....as is the fact that Draco doesn't look female, and, apparently, the fact that I've forgotten how to start sentences with anything aside from 'and', which is grammatically incorrect anway!
Heh, so do I!
And dont worry about it!
