I was looking through the comments on my pathetic excuse for an Elfwood gallery and I came to a shocking realization: I have never drawn Lupin. Ok, so there was that one idiotic CG that should never have seen the light of day (oh god, this was complete junk. Erase it from your memories, kids), but other than that, nada. Zip. Squat. The poor guy needs some representation, right? Well, I know I'm working on a "Draco Sinister" Chapter 2 manga, so I'll have to face our favourite werewolf some time or another. Ugh. Why is it so easy to draw Sirius, yet so imposible to draw Lupin? With Sirius, all you have to do is draw an incredibly hot guy and slap some long black hair, or draw a scary, angst-ridden guy with threadbare robes. Easy. Maybe that's why my class notes are positively riddled with drawings of Sirius. Lupin has a whole different degree of... erm... I dunno. Lupin-ness. Now Tealin and Starling? They can draw Lupin! I don't think Starling has any of her Lupin pics in her Elfwood gallery, but they're all there in the Fan Art section of the Paradigm of Uncertainty egroup. ::sigh:: The girl seriously needs a website. I wonder if she's considered it.

I wonder what happened to my old sketchbook. All the stuff in it was junk; I was just re-teaching myself how to draw, but I'm incredibly curious as to which other characters I'm neglecting. I don't think I ever even drew Lily! I don't quite think that colouring Tanja's luvverly Valentines card quite counts as drawing her. Let's see... I've done Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ginny, James, Sirius, Peter, Percy, Malfoy, Hagrid, McGonagall, Lockhart, Cho, Dobby -- HOLY COW! I don't think I've ever done Snape! Fwah, I should be ashamed of myself. I've done a cornish pixie and I've never done Snape. ::sighs and resigns herself to drawing every single character ever mentioned in the series; wake me up in 17 years::

Hey... if I find my evil stupid sketchbook, do you want to see pictures? Should I set up a "junk" archive at The Nine Muses in addition to the stuff I actually like? Why don't you comment?
