Tom Riddle — Description
Edit: I made his nose smaller x3. And added some purple shading n_n. I hope it looks at least slightly better XD;.

Tom Riddle...better known as Lord Voldemort or "You-Know-Who"...the Wizarding World's most terrible murderer.

Ah...yes, HP fanart . Yes, movie 4 rocks (I just resaw it two days ago n_n). But this is more book 2/6 inspired, I'd say. It's Tom Marvollo Riddle as a 4th? year at Hogwarts. Wrapped around him is a younger Nagini, or Nagini's predecessor. I've always loved the character of Riddle--he's so fascinatingly sad ;;. Poor kid. But, he looses my sympathy in that he had a similar childhood to Harry...and yet Harry turned out so much better.

Anyway, this was done mostly for practicing humans . I think I'm getting a bit better...but I still can't draw them well. ;; Sadness. I guess for a 3rd try (and 2nd/3rd done on the computer), this isn't too shabby...but not great. Yeah, but I'm happy with how his robes, skin, and snake came out. And the dark mark . It turned out better than I thought it would x3. Hmm...I wonder which Death Eater would have made it? I guess the artist Graphic Designer one 8D. And no, he doesn't look like the movie Riddle--this is MY interpretation .

So, this was a fun drawing . I'd truly appreciate any crits that ya'll have--I'm trying to improve! Just don't say "__ looks weird"--tell me how to fix it .

Tools: Painter 9 (I have never drawn anything using it before, even though I've owned it for a while; it's SO MUCH FUN!)--oil pastels with pen lineart . I used PS for the bg--I used some custom brushes for the bloodish texture ^^
