oooh! Sirius totally looks like a moody bugger! *hee* And I love how Remus is all in his face! Probably not the happiest of scenes, but it's beautiful regardless!

I'm so used to drawing happy scenes between those two I needed to change soemthing. :D
I'm glad you like it. :)

Wow! When I read the prompt, I thought "who the hell does one draw a 'strong personality'"? Then I clicked and after seeing the pic I have to say: "Well yeah! That's how it's done!"

That's a very intense Remus, great pic

[remeciel.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! :)
That was so interesting to draw, because I've never had this kind of challenging prompt to deal with. :)

Vivid and gorgeous! Lovely detail, as usual.

I love how they're in each other's faces. It makes me think this argument will end with a kiss. :)

Ooh, this isn't a scene one usually sees! Great job! (And alas, "arguments" can be all too ordinary, eh?)

*recognizes the style, at least thinks she does* Do you work on the R/S comic thing? With all their years of Hogwarts, cause it sure looks like that style...? I could be wrong. *scurries off*

[minnow-53.livejournal.com]

Wow, that's very powerful actually. *likes a LOT*

[remeciel.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! I'm glad you like the details on this drawing. :D

[remeciel.livejournal.com]

Thanks alot! :)

It makes me think this argument will end with a kiss.

Yes, it may end that way! ;)
...And I may draw one day a following of this pic... :)

[remeciel.livejournal.com]

This was quite an interesting challenge to deal with. Thank you so much for your lovely comment. :)

[remeciel.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :DD
I love drawing that kind of contrasts a lot. :)

I really love your icon. :)

[remeciel.livejournal.com]

*raises hand* Yes, it's me! well done! :DD

[remeciel.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much for commenting, dear! I really appreciate it. :))

THANK YOU, sweetie! I'm sorry it's taken me so long to comment, but I'm just back in town and pleased to no end to find this waiting for me here. You've covered all the things I like so much--intimacy and conflict in close quarters; dramatic moments, suggestive settings (I love the textures of the wall and window), a strong Remus, and Sirius the avid reader. (Plus a cup of tea in the background that I suspect was just for me. *smile*) The composition is just fabulous. Remus awkwardly close--but obviously hostile or angry--is amazing, as is Sirius, startled and interrupted and just starting to defend himself. This was just lovely! Thank you! Maggie

Oh wow. What a great picture! You do such a wonderful job of canoveying action through their facial expressions and poses. It's easy to imagine what they're saying, what the argument is about.

[shiny-glor-chan.livejournal.com]

Whoo! I like being right. Very nice last few pages that just came out for the comic, it was SO awesome. ^-^;; *is such a flatterer, hehe*

[aillil.livejournal.com]

This is absolutely wonderful!

I love Sirius' posture especially, so defensive, yet open, while Remus is all closed off. Very much how one would picture an argument between those two.

Brilliant work.

You know, cats can be a horrible predator when they want to eat something. *g*

[remeciel.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! I'm glad you follow the R/S comic strip taht closely. :)

Do flatter! who wouldn't like to receive compliments? *ggg*
But I wouldn't have been able to draw anything without aillil's help. :)

[remeciel.livejournal.com]

I'm so glad you like it! This may be the most challenging pic I've ever drawn, for I'm used to drawing, as I said before, sweet, tender moments for these two characters.
And drawing such a background was meant to be full of intensity, too. :)

I love your interpration for this drawing, too. :)

[remeciel.livejournal.com]

Thanks a lot. Drawing such intense expressions for both of them was really interesting. :)

[remeciel.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much. :)

I haven't really realized how close they were when I looked at the pic again. I didn't do it on purpose, but it does work well! *g*

(Lj stole some of my icons, and the one you used has disappeared. Damn. :/)

It's probably just due to database probs again. :)
