FINALLY! Pointillation Snarry is done!

[tripperfunster]

Oh man, I don't think I've EVAH worked this loooong on any art. It wasn't really hard, perse, but it was just so damn slow going! I must say though, that being forced to slow down really helped me to focus on many of the details that I would have sort of just scribbled through with a regular drawing.

Oh Trip, this is inspiring. I love the crinkled skin around Snape's eyes. And I think I'd love to try this sometime.

Wow. Just ... wow. I have no idea how anyone finds the patience to do pointillation, and with this level of detail! I can see how it would help with the details though.

Good Christ, that is fucking awesome.

Go you! I'm glad the god awful tediousness patience paid off! <3

WOMAN!!!! GUH!

These almost photo-realistic portraits of yours are my very favorites. I stared at this for a loooong time. I love how your characters, in general, are plain people - Harry is not a supermodel, just a kid. And Snape! I feel like I've met him before. I just know what the teeth beneath that mouth look like to push his lips out so. And his crow's feet! And the sideburns! And the youth/aged contrast between their cheeks! And those noses! You make me want to run my fingetips all over these two.
I don't care how long pointillism takes (actually, I've done it, so I know), you must do more if it produces art like this. You are an artist! You must suffer for your Snarry! Pleasepleaseplease.

OMG! Wow! Stunning. The hands and fingers! Wow!

Oh, lordy, I know how hard pointillism is.... this is fantastic work.

[archea2.livejournal.com]

Can merely repeat other comments. Wow. And stunning. And OMG a warm-looking Snape! (So rare, so precious.)

Ah, I so wish I could bribe/blackmail/drug/coax you into Snack some day.

[tessisamess.livejournal.com]

Wow. Beautiful work, as always!

...enbiggened... makes me giggle. XD

This is so beautiful! Your ability to draw fantastically detailed faces and hands has always amazed me. I like how you didn't try to smooth out Sev's wrinkles or pretty him up, but he's gorgeous nonetheless.

All I can really do is echo the above guys, completely gorgeous full of minute details that add up into stunning work.

[cyane-snape.livejournal.com]

Brilliant. I too love the wrinkles around Snape's eyes.

[gingertart50.livejournal.com]

Fabulous. I love how Harry looks boyish yet masculine and Snape, oh Snape, how I love your Snape! The eyes, the nose, those little wrinkles, the texture of his cheek..... and how you made their hair so different yet still human hair. Gorgeous, gorgeous art.

DDDDAAAAAMN WOMAN. Did you need to get a hand massage after finishing this? x3

That looks awesome! I freakin love Harry's hair!!

[sun-chan.livejournal.com]

That's beautiful! Great work! :D

*GAPES*

[snapesfavorite.livejournal.com]

Oh. My. God.
Excuse me while I go and pick my jaw up off the floor. That is ABSOLUTELY magnificent!! *still gaping*

[huntress1013.livejournal.com]

It is gorgeous! I utterly acdore it!

[leela-cat.livejournal.com]

That's amazing. I love the details that make it so real, especially the lines around Snape's eyes. However long it took you to finish, it was worth the effort from this side of the screen.

Have I told you lately.... Haaaaa, you do such excellent haar, but this is above and beyond haar; it's tresses! Love Snape's eye-crinkles and dimples and their expressions made me smile myself, which attracted Viola's attention and now I'm reading 'The Little Engine that Could' again, damn you.

Beautiful job, tripp. Glad to see you finished it. I was wondering....
