Unforgiveable by camillo1978
Title: Unforgiveable
Artist: camillo1978
Pairing: None
Rating: PG
Medium: Pastel pencils; colour saturation increase and contrast adjustment in Photoshop
Warnings: None
Theme: Quest
Prompt: Let slip the dogs of war
Summary: Snape casts the killing curse
A/N: Snape's quest for redemption - and the fact that he is forced to kill in order to progress the war - seemed appropriate for this theme and prompt. According to JKR, in order to perform an Unforgiveable, you have to "really mean it". Attempting to convey that alongside some more ambiguous emotion was a grand challenge ;-) Many thanks to dickgloucester for beta-work and helping to select the final version.
