Snape and Harry Shrinky Dinks

Snape and Harry Shrinky Dinks by Amy Crook

Snape and Harry Shrinky Dinks by Amy Crook

Yes, that is a dime off in the distance there. Yes, they are just that wee. Somehow, I forget every time just how small they’re going to get! I have no idea what I’ll do with these, possibly a random giveaway. I have jump rings for them (which are ginormous compared to the actual charms) but it’s much easier to photograph them flat without.

Here you can see them before shrinking, next to a pair of scissors for relative scale. Their colors are also less intense, since they get much more pigment-dense when the material they’re on shrinks.

And then a clearer shot of the after, with the same pair of scissors and the additional dime for reference. SO WEE.

Harry Potter Valentines

Harry Potter Valentine cartoon by Amy Crook

Harry Potter Valentine cartoon by Amy Crook

I wanted to make a silly Harry Potter Valentine card this year for my friends who love these characters, since not all of my friends got all fannish about Sherlock the way I did. One of them suggested Snape teaching Harry to brew those candy message hearts, and after googling for some bad Latin, this is the card front.

Of course, I couldn’t stop there, we had to see the results!

As you can see, someone’s got a bit of a crush on his teacher, but Snape’s still in denial. I’m sure it’ll have a happy ending, though.

Apericordis, 7″x5″ pen and ink and Copic markers on paper. You can get your own copy of this silly little card here on Etsy.

Snape-o-Ween Costumes, cartoon by Amy Crook

Snape-o-Ween Costumes by Amy Crook

I drew this years ago for a Halloween card exchange. Each costume and caption filled one eighth of one of those paper fortune tellers of the sort I used as a kid. I had to Google how to fold one, it had been so long! Perhaps next year I’ll make a Cthulhu one. Or Harry Potter himself, just so Snape can enjoy sharing the misery.

Weeble Voldemort

Weeble Voldemort cartoon by Amy Crook

Yeah, I said his name. I’m not afraid of the Dark Lord, all things considered.

In honour of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2, my friend Gretchen suggested I weeble Voldemort. This is an homage to a certain scene in the movie, but trust me, if you haven’t seen it, this won’t spoil it.

I even gave him a cute plushie Nagini to hang out by his feet with her patchwork spots.

Weeble Voldemort, 5.5″x8.5″ pen and ink and Copic markers on sketchbook paper, not for sale.

Fly Me to the Moon

Fly Me to the Moon by Amy Crook

Fly Me to the Moon by Amy Crook

This is another image I designed for a t-shirt using a sketch, this one even more appropriate to the season. A bit of Harry Potter and a bit of Sinatra are together in a witchy Halloween image.

This is definitely my favorite time of year, so enjoy!

Better Than Snail Mail

Better Than Snail Mail by Amy Crook

Better Than Snail Mail by Amy Crook

I drew this snowy owl several years ago for the program book at a convention, and then ended up making Cafepress swag out of it on a whim. I have it on a coaster and some greeting cards, actually, though I never bought the t-shirt for myself.

It also was the basis for my shoulder tattoo, although that owl is carrying a book rather than a letter.

Snape

Snape by Amy Crook

Snape by Amy Crook

To go with yesterday’s botched Potions lesson, here’s a very stylized drawing of Professor Snape to go with it. The lightning bolt is from a very silly little Harry Potter stamp kit, and the rest is pen and ink.
