Allow me to kick this off with ... HUZZAH FOR NO STUBBY HANDS!

For this piece, I took inspiration from the pose found in the illustrated version of Chamber of Secrets and combined that with the duelling outfit seen in the film. The whole Duelling Club scene just completely encapsulates what this man is all about from his showboating to gaslighting of his skillset which all comes together with the words offered to Harry during detention. For the one and only Gilderoy Lockhart I went with a grey Copic multiliner which really goes well with the pastel color story I will be using. The grey color, and pastels, also remind me of memories and that foggy or dreamlike vibe that they are often associated with which goes hand in hand with the character's skill with Memory Charms. I kind of wish I had made up my own design for his cape instead of trying to mimic the pattern seen in the film because I am not sure my white gel pen and I translated the vision properly but it is an overall nice effect. I'm particularly pleased with his hair

The blending in Mad Eyes clothes with the different shades of brown give such beautiful dimension to him. And I LOVE how Quirrel's style looks a bit like a puppet! Very apt considering his role in the story.

I can't wait to see more!

Thank you, Chellie

Oh wow, I had not even considered the puppet-like pose of Quirrell so that is such a bonus interpretation
