Tests ended on Thursday, and I can finally toss those notes aside (for now) and draw Barty characters, who are always fun to draw. Here's a character study of Natto-chan, with Nathaniel in the olden days before Lovelace, Dolce & gabbana et. al and after. I hope I managed to capture the urbane-ness (love that word) of Mr Mandrake. That stage of Nat's life was the hardest to capture on paper for me because there just aren't any real life examples. oO; I'll be posting some more pics later, going for a run first. |

I really like your 'little Nat', Wintertabby. I did a Bartimaeus character sheet yesterday, so I'm linking it here now: http://www.deviantart.com/view/35544447/ |

I love how you draw Nat with long hair.
 I've never thought Underwood and Lovelace to have facial hair, plus I imagined Farrar and Whitwell differently. Thanks for contributing though, thought I'd make this thread so people can see different versions of characters.

Here's Kitty and Jakob as I picture them in Golem's Eye There's a bigger version here I know this scene isn't really in the book, it's a product of my head. I wanted to draw Kitty in kick-ass Resistance mode as that was what made me love her in the first place. Kitty finds herself hunted by the Night Police -at night, but I don't feel like colouring at the moment- and hides in an alley some where. I decided to throw in a frightened Jakob for good measure. I'm not happy with how I depicted Jakob and the alley...it's hard. =/ |

Well, the frightened Jakob is realistic. And your Nathaniel rocks. He was so different as a boy... |

Thanks! I tried to age him as best as I could. It's the eyes that are different to me. I gave the little Nat sad eyes. |

I think Stroud mentioned that Mr Underwood had long, thin white beard (people, correct me if I remember wrong!) As for Lovelace - no, Stroud didn't write he had a moustache, but I thought that would suit him :mwamba: Glad you like my Nat - I love drawing him with long hair, that suits him most, IMHO

Yes, I remember reading somewhere Underwood had a beard. |

It's pretty ironic that Underwood fits into the bearded wise magician/wizard stereotype and is anything but. Speaking of which, I thought I saw Dumbledore, Harry and Madam Hooch in Agi's character sheet at first. Hope that didn't offend you Agi. ^^But there's proof that Nat owns them all. *is aware that I shouldn't be saying 'owns' without a clue how to spell it* Anyway, I just added Jane and Kitty portraits to the Nathaniel ones, and the complete picture can be found here. I think I'll link all my pics there in future, since I'm sure most people find that preferable. |

Nice Jane and Kitty  And now at least I know that you're rie-cheese on devart
Don't worry, you didn't offend me, I do imagine Whitwell a bit like Hooch (just much nastier). As for Underwood... it was Stroud's 'fault' that he described him looking like the 'wise wizard type' even if he's a total idiot. But who did you think was Harry in my Barty character sheet? (Lovelace, perhaps? Because of his glasses?) If we're already at character studies, here are some other Nathaniel pics from me: Nat from Golem's Eye: http://www.deviantart.com/view/27681866/ Another Nat, probably between GE and PG (before he decided to cut his hair) - or it could be an AU Nat too, dunno: http://www.deviantart.com/view/27816851/ |

I like your Artemis. This is the dude I'd use if I manipped him: Although he's a little too muscled in some pics.

Wow, Luciene, that's gorgeous (even though his hair isn't black, and it should be ;)) I really hope they'll choose the right boy to play Arty in the movie (the same stands for Nathaniel...) Thank heaven in Harry Potter they managed to find the rigth kids, but Artemis and Nathaniel on screen is my big fear... I'd hate to see my dear 'nasty boys' played by someone pathetic...

The author chose someone for Arty. At least he had preferences, but then, I think they cancelled the movie. They took it off IMBD. Oh and his hair is really black in other pics. |

OMG!! Is that Frederico Moyano? I used a pic of him as a ref for my Artemis portrait. Here's a pic of him (not the one I used, that one's buried somewhere in my vast photo collection :mwamba: )  This picture just screams Artemis to me. Another guy who looks Artyish sometimes is Tobias Brahmst, he has a page at modelhommes, you should go check him out. ^^ |
