The character we all debate about!

As the upcoming book's date release gets closer, we all speculate on what kind of person Snape really is, and where his morals really lie. Here, in this thread we'll explore the way different artists view Snape and what'll become of him come Deathly Hallows.

Now, some artists see Snape as a bad man, and portray him like so in their art:

Anguinea in the FA Gallery

Then there are the artists who see him as good (sometimes even the same artist), showing him in almost sweet situations:
IPB Image
Anguinea in the FA Gallery.

Some view him as neither evil nor good, a character who just cares for himself:
IPB Image
Caladan in the Gallery.

So, which artist's (in our Fan Art Gallery) interpretation of where Snape's morals lie do you agree with the most? Which do you disagree with?

is it ok to post my interpretation of Snape? I was commissioned to draw this recently. and funny enough we both share the same views of how he should be depicted, i don't completely agree with the phoenix, but on the whole. i do believe Snape has a heart. even if its under layer upon layer of dark cloud. and he wouldn't show it to just anyone. i do think he has a selfish streak tho.

*awaits a bashing for posting up my own art* -_-;

Our Severus, who art in hogwarts,
Hallowed be thy nose.
Thy caulrdon come,Thy will be done,
On the astronomy tower as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily potion.
And forgive us our bad grades,
As we forgive those who curse our asses off.
And lead us not into detention,
But deliver us from evil.

Whoa! That is an excellent image. Showing his patronus as a powerful Phoenix gives contrast to the dark side of the character that we've seen so far. I love the way he's staring back out the picture as if to say 'What are you looking at?' - Its so him.

I really like the crosshatching effect of his cloak against the fluidity of the phoenix, which is wonderfully rendered. The rough and the smooth, the dark and the light. I feel this captures the contradictory essence of the character.

I can't wait to see more of your work when Galleries are back up clap.gif

*gasp* Snoggerific your artwork of my master is truly spectacular. He look sin his element - dark and broody but magnificantly powerful and in command biggrin.gif drool.gif thumbup.gif I love it!!!!

Snape's patronus a phoenix..interesting theory...this is not the right thread to discuss this I know, but I am unable to find one that might be coz all the search engines seem to be offline - but what do you think his boggart would be? biggrin.gif

and to Hagiographer13 - That picture is really beautiful. You've captured a side of Severus that no doubt hides underneath his cloak of darkness, his human emotinal side. Awesome artwork kiss.gif

Oh, and Snoggerific - that charming little pryaer in your sig - I'm still laughing - love it!!! toast.gif

Snape's DM -- thanks for the compliment, but my artistic skills are strictly of the photo-manipulation variety! This image of Snape is by FAGallery artist anni. If you check out her album you'll see that Snape is a favourite subject of hers. biggrin.gif

Once our FanArt Gallery is back up for uploading new images, I hope Snoggerific will post that amazing image of Snape and the phoenix. Simply spectacular! flowers.gif

Such a great picture from anni. It's really poignant and she's captured the wry smile which goes so well with the text. I love how the text has that newspaper cut-out effect. Clever.

OMG! Snoggerific! Your art is AMAZING! I love these two you have posted here, specially the first one, its simply breathtaking!

That's all I wanted to say, seeing as we know who Snape really was, well, what he was like.

PS. Do you have a DeviantArt account, Snoggerific?

Snoggerific, your art just amazes me. It's such a poignant picture (knowing what we know). You really do have an amazing eye for capturing emotions in your work. It's a really powerful piece.
