Snapedom

Firstly, I would like to thank everyone who entered. The pictures were a joy to look at, and as I have mentioned before, it's going to be tough for me to pick a winner - truly.
Secondly, my thanks to those who took time to comment on the entries. All artists love feedback and it's always exciting to receive a comment on your art.
I have yet to decide who the winner is, but it will be in approx 24 hours.
In the meantime, here's a review of the entries so that we can see them all together. Of course, this is assuming I don't screw up the links, which I will undoubtedly do based on past efforts, so advance apologies for that. It doesn't help that I'm slightly tanked.

This is my first post to Snapedom, and I believe that as this isn't digital art, it may not qualify, but it was suggested I try anyway...

I call it "The School's Largest Cauldron", and here's the link to my DeviantArt posting (am I allowed to put the picture here directly?):

I received a request for an extension on this month's deadline, so the challenge remains open until the end of Sunday.  It makes a bit of sense since it gives people the weekend to work on an entry.
We have 7 entries thus far, and they're all fabulous!

Hooray for reminders! There have been two more entries for the Feb Challenge for your viewing pleasure.
The first is from constantine2530 who has rather put me to shame with her ArtPad abilitayz! Link to her IJ if you'd like to leave a comment here.  The replay here.


The second is from traveler64 over on LJ who did hers with Corel.  Link to her LJ if you'd like to leave a comment here.

In action here.

Just a reminder to you all that there are only a couple of days left for the 'Guilty Pleasures' SNARC challenge for this month!

There have been the following entries to date:
janus  with Creampuffs
severed_lies  with Plushie Secrets
hirschkuh  with Scrapbooks of Happy Times
the_bitter_word  with Texting

If I've forgotten anyone, please let me know! It won't be because I don't like your entry; it'll be cos I have an appalling memory!
Already I'm going to have trouble picking a winner since they're all such great ideas, but please make my job even harder by using these last couple of days to get your entry in! A World's #1 Potions Master mug is the prize!

Creampuffs!

Nums! Severus has a secret! And they were expecting him!
Watch it being drawn HERE!

My entry for the Feb contest - Guilty Pleasures

Art Pad is saving: http://artpad.art.com/gallery/?kfaodv8o4vs

Here comes my contribution to this month S.N.A.R.C. contest. I always think of our beloved potion-master as beeing a bit anal retentive... therefore he will made a good collector of some sorts. Imagine him collecting pictures of all potion accidents and coultron blew ups ever happend during his time in Hogwards. So maybe on an cosy sunday evening he'll bring out his favorite albums - "Longbottons Finest Moments" Volume 1-19, "My Best Jinxes on Marauders", "The Messiest Exposions" and "Hufflepuffs Under Potion Influence"...





ArtPad was very slow today - so I used ArtRage instead, but its only half the fun :(

This is a sort-of multi-purpose post.

1) Very late birthday greetings for sylvanawood (I still can't figure out Photoshop)
2) Severus' special Valentine's Day treat
3) Entry into protowilson's current contest, Snape's Guilty Pleasure

His guilty pleasure is texting sylvanawood!



Yeah, that's about it.

Hiya funsters! Firstly, my thanks for the win on last month's SNARC contest: Snape's Winter Adventures.
This means I'm the lucky one to set this month's challenge, which I have decided will be:


Everyone has a guilty pleasure - something that they indulge in that others might deem frivolous or just downright crazy. Draw a picture of what you think our normally dour and abstemious Potions Master might partake in as a guilty pleasure. It might be a particular food, a Muggle luxury, or a trashy romance novel. Remember to keep it clean, so no porn! Make it fun, make it kooky, make it unexpected. You've got until the last day of the month to submit your ideas. Ideally, ArtPad's the way to go, but I understand that the rule on that has been relaxed to include any digital drawing software. severed_lies may have to correct me on this!
And the prize for the winner: a 'World's #1 Potions Master' mug donated by me and shipped to your location.
