SHORT DESCRIPTION FOR PEOPLE WHO CAN'T BE BOTHERED BY ANYTHING LONGER THAN TWITTER MESSAGES.

I'm reading the Harry Potter books to my son (6).
He hasn't seen the movies and doesn't want to.
He used to have trouble keeping tabs on who is who, so I draw the characters for him.
We're on the Prisoner of Azkaban at the moment.
Hence, he doesn't know yet that Sirius is a good guy.
That's why I made Sirius look nicer than I think he does, to give my son food for thought.
Nobody past PoA is on here because I add characters as we "meet" them.
And this is even longer than the actual pic description.
In which I use subordinate clauses and everything.
Look what you made me do.

_______________________________________________

Original description for people who do care about these things.

So, in my quest to illustrate every main character of the Harry Potter books as I read them to my six-year-old son, I've accumulated quite a few, right?

We're in the middle of the Prisoner of Azkaban now, and here's the new and improved full character chart!

Legend: Harry Potter - Hermione Granger - Ron Weasley - AlbusDumbledore
Neville Longbottom - Dean Thomas - Seamus Finnegan - Draco Malfoy - Professor Quirrel
Fred and George Weasley - Percy Weasley - Oliver Wood - Severus Snape
Nearly Headless Nick - Colin Creevey - (below: Lavender Brown) - Parvati Patil - Professor McGonagall - Hagrid
Molly and Arthur Weasley with Ginny Weasley - Peeves - Cho Chang - Moaning Myrtle - The Fat Lady (on top: Sir Cadogan)
Gilderoy Lockhart -Fawkes - Lucius Malfoy and Dobby - Justin Finch-Fletchley
Professor Sprout - Professor Flitwick - top: Ernie Macmillan - bottom: Cedric Diggory - Hannah Abbot
Madam Pomfrey - Argus Filch - Conelius Fudge - far right: Madam Rosmerta (looking too young)
Madam Hooch - Sirius Black - Remus Lupin - Professor Trelawney
Peter Pettigrew/Scabbers - Voldemort

Sirius came out a bit "nicer" than I actually imagine him in the book. But as my son was dead sure that he's evil to the core at the beginning of the third book, I felt like giving him some food for thought. ;)

I update this whenever I add new ones. :)

Pencil on various papers and notebooks.

I go with the books, where he is never described as scarred, just worn.

he describes clawing and biting at himself during his school transformations, as he didnt have people to attack. one can assume that over time this would leave numerous scars.
