Thank you Madsdagirl and vandy !!

How come Luna isn't an option. There should be at least an "other" option on the poll.
Posted by: ErinRae Apr 30 2007, 08:47 AM
Hi Nimbus,
I added a Luna option especially for you and just to say 
for forgetting her - here is Hito's gorgeous Luna here:

Thanks Erin. I'm not trying to be nit picky, just fair.
Posted by: Sneezler Apr 30 2007, 02:28 PM
I chose Hermione, because of this:
Honestly, I couldn't stop looking at that one for ages. I thought it was amusing and touching, and I still have it in my favourites.
Oh, and I hope I've hosted correctly this time, ErinRae 
Posted by: Ioli Apr 30 2007, 02:44 PM
I chose Hermione, because I absolutely ADORE Jealousy, the image between Ron, Lavender and Hermione where Ron tries to reach a supposedly indifferent Hermione, whilst Lavender is holding him back... And Hermione... Oh, Hermione is PERFECT, turning her back at Ron whilst cutting Lavender's hair.... And to complete the perfection, there is a sequel as well.... Brilliant!!
Posted by: weasleyismyking15 Apr 30 2007, 02:52 PM
I choose Ronald because a) I love him and b) because his expressions are the funniest! 
Posted by: MonieLou Apr 30 2007, 03:09 PM
I LOVE Hito's Harry in this picture:
So naturally, that's what I voted for. I'm extremely picky about how Ron is drawn (no one has yet to draw him the way I picture him. I really wish I was artistic so I could draw him), but Hito's comes kinda close.
Posted by: beadgirl Apr 30 2007, 03:16 PM
I chose Tonks, because she looks the most like how I pictured her to look, and she is my favorite character.
Posted by: ErinRae Apr 30 2007, 07:54 PM
I really love her Lupin! Pictured here with the Marauders.
Posted by: Rayven Klau Apr 30 2007, 08:25 PM
My current favorite has to be Ron, Ginny and Draco in the shower!! 
It's soo funny I laughed out loud.
Hey she gave them what they wanted! 
Posted by: kwidditch Apr 30 2007, 08:53 PM
I LOVED the one she drew of Tonks & Lupin, they make such a cute couple! :3 Also, Tonks is my favourite character and what could be more perfect than a Marauder and such a fun character like Tonks? What really got me was how she drew her, it was so perfect. =)
Posted by: weirdsis May 1 2007, 07:21 AM
I love that Hary! He's so very Gryffindor in that picture. 
Posted by: JustifiablyBrilliant May 1 2007, 03:48 PM
Hito,
Je pense que votre art est incroyable, et mon prefere c'est celui de Harry et Ginny...c'est tres eloquant.
Sorry, my French is a bit rusty, but I basically stated that I love Hito's artwork, and that my favorite is the one of Harry and Ginny when she's reaching for his scarf...it's very eloquent.
Posted by: Hagiographer13 May 1 2007, 08:21 PM
I have been dying for Hito to be one of our featured FanArtists! Her use of colour and line are fabulous! Additionally, as people have mentioned, her sense of humour about the characters is wonderful, and shows really well through her art!
I am also a fan of that Harry/Ginny picture, that JustifiablyBrilliant mentioned--
Sweet and poignant!
Posted by: weirdsis May 1 2007, 09:54 PM
I'm not Erin, but
yes you did! (I remember the first time I tried to post an image... I used copy and paste!)Posted by: steffwinkies May 2 2007, 02:59 AM
owkei! my favorite artist..i really love the drawings! all of them! 
im so happy! cheers! 
Posted by: WobblyWout May 3 2007, 12:44 PM
I really like this piece of Lupin, especially the claw...
Posted by: Tom Scribble May 4 2007, 06:37 PM
That one of Tonks and Lupin is also my favourite. Lupin's not how I imagined him personally, but it's a super picture! Tonks is spot on.
There's also a funny comic of Sirius and Lupin-as-Werewolf playing poker. That's pretty hilarious... the fact that Lupin's able to play poker in his state (well - he's NOT able to play, as we see in the comic). Hehe.
Posted by: sbrass4 May 5 2007, 02:18 AM
I was just curious...I love your art work, espesially your work on the "older" characters. I love the ones of Sirius and Remus but I was wondering if you had done a solo picture of James. I saw the one of the Marauders but thought since there was one of just james by himself??? Just curious if I was the only one who would like to see this or if the other in here would help me out and jeer you into doin one of James Potter!!!
Posted by: Hito May 6 2007, 05:04 PM
Thank you very much for your messages! 
For James, I'll think about it! ^^
Posted by: HPhorsegirl May 6 2007, 05:35 PM

And Hermione... Oh, Hermione is PERFECT, turning her back at Ron whilst cutting Lavender's hair.... And to complete the perfection, there is a sequel as well.... Brilliant!!
That is my favorite peice as well.
Posted by: hpboy13 May 6 2007, 07:22 PM
I absoutely love this art! My favorite is this http://www.the-leaky-cauldron.org/fanart/picture/view/2349, it's hilarious!!
Posted by: ErinRae May 6 2007, 07:27 PM
The Jealousy image Ioli was mentioning is this one here:
http://www.the-leaky-cauldron.org/fanart/user/profile/Hito
and can be found in Hito's album http://www.the-leaky-cauldron.org/fanart/user/profile/Hito
Posted by: soha88 May 6 2007, 08:41 PM
Oh my God!!!! i Love your fanart Hito!!!! ESPECIALLY the sirius/james seduction one, lupin/tonk one, ron/hermoine jealousy one, and the touching harry/ginny one. They were all fabulous!!!!! keep them coming!
Please do more of harry/ginny though. I think you can do them full justice. Your depiction of them when ginny is touching harry's scarf is so touching and I just stared at it for a while. It made me think, and I could totally feel what ginny might be feeling. You have an awesome gift Hito! if it were up to me, i'd make u the official artist of this entire site, but ah well...
Soha
Posted by: Sofie May 7 2007, 01:43 AM
I really like this piece of Lupin, especially the claw...
This is my favourite Hito picture too! I really like her interpretation of Tonks.

I agree, hpboy13, this is SOOOO funny!
Like I've been saying, the best part of Hito's art is her humour!
Posted by: Henrietta May 12 2007, 07:41 PM
Hito - do you have a website? I'd really like to see your non-HP related work as well. Beautiful stuff.
Posted by: Hito May 14 2007, 08:09 AM

I totally ADORE Hito's artwork. I love the way she does Ron because he looks so handsome in his own way. And her R/Hr stuff are soooo cute! Espeically Jelousy with Ron, Hermione, and Lav-Lav. It's just too funny.
Edit: I forgot to mention how much I love the way she drew Tonks. It is by far the best Tonks I have seen. It's sorta creepy because it's exactly the way I imagine Tonks.
Posted by: Sethtaylorsummer May 15 2007, 05:30 AM
I love them all but I chose Snape, because it really is my idea of Snape ...
Posted by: Hito May 18 2007, 02:29 AM
Thank you very much Quiscalus and Sethtaylorsummer!!
Posted by: Sethtaylorsummer May 18 2007, 02:39 AM
I love your deviant art gallery, Hito. There's so much life and subtext in your art ... and it's so quirky and funny! It's beautiful!!
Posted by: laurzabeth May 18 2007, 03:45 AM
Your Luna looks EXACTLY like my friend Aly. I laughed so hard.
I adore your Hermione. She is beautiful.
Hermione with voodoo doll Ron has to be my favorite, but I also love the one where she cuts off Lavender's hair as she gives Ron the silent treatment. The sequel is priceless too.
I also love your Marauders. They just make me laugh.
Posted by: Hazey May 18 2007, 08:15 AM
Wow! You're art is really beautiful. I especially like your Marauder drawings. The poker comic is hilarious. I think you also draw Tonks very well.
And I really like you're Deviantart gallery as well. 
Posted by: Hito May 19 2007, 06:50 AM
Thank you very very much!!!
Posted by: daughter of the moonlight May 19 2007, 05:42 PM
Hito, I just love your pictures, they are great. Too bad I can't wote for two, I an crazy abot your Ron and Sirius. I love this one: (I have no idea how to put a picture, so please look the link, sorry I suck with computers 
) http://www.the-leaky-cauldron.org/fanart/picture/view/2339
And this one almost made me cry:
http://www.the-leaky-cauldron.org/fanart/picture/view/2100
Please, please just continue with drawing, I can't wait for next picture, especially if it is R/Hr 
Posted by: Hagiographer13 May 19 2007, 07:06 PM
Here is that wonderful picture daughter of the moonlight mentioned--
And--
Makes me tear up, too.
Posted by: *ellen marine* May 19 2007, 07:21 PM
Haha.. these cracked me up! Hito, your English is great, by the way. Miles better than my French, that's for sure!
My favourite was Hermione and voodoo-Ron (I thought that was very, very funny, and Hermione looks beautiful) - and I also love the one of Hermione, Ron and Lavender, especially the funny little details like Hermione's spell cutting Lavender's hair
Great work!

Our wonderful May FanArtist, Hito just uploaded this fantastic picture of Dumbledore!
http://www.the-leaky-cauldron.org/fanart/picture/view/3093
This is such an amazing image I couldn't wait to share it here in the forum!

Wow.... I saw that as a new image and was wondering who uploadeded it. It is truly a fantastic image! I love how it portrays Dumbledore. He looks so powerful and magical.
Posted by: JustifiablyBrilliant May 23 2007, 02:03 PM
A truly stunning image Hito...that's a great rendition of Dumbledore. Beautiful work, I look forward to more of your art!
Posted by: livia-lovegood May 23 2007, 02:56 PM
Hito's the best! I particulary like the picture of DD and the one of Tonks
Posted by: Hito May 23 2007, 03:17 PM
Thank you very much!! I'm really happy that you like it!!
Posted by: nimbus _xl May 23 2007, 04:08 PM
Did you paint the picture of Natelie Tena in your avatar?
Posted by: Hito May 23 2007, 04:10 PM
No! It's a picture ;)
Posted by: Hagiographer13 May 27 2007, 10:54 AM
I have been utterly fascinated at the different artistic interpretations that have been made of that most enigmatic of HP characters, Severus Snape. Take a look at Hito's vision of him--
http://www.the-leaky-cauldron.org/fanart/picture/view/2062
I especially like this because it isn't particularly romanticized, as many that I've seen are. Just the right touch of evil, and the unknowable!
Posted by: Hito May 28 2007, 02:22 PM
Thank you! I'm glad you like it!
Posted by: cuardin Aug 2 2007, 08:42 AM
Hito, you are amazing. 
I wrote you a PM. I hope you will read it and take it under consideration.

Posted by: Hito Aug 27 2007, 07:31 AM
It's done, sorry for the delay and thank you!
(I have a problem with the post of my last drawings. There's a deformation... 
Could you help me please? And I can't delete them... )
Posted by: Hagiographer13 Sep 3 2007, 12:01 AM
The fabulous Mlle. Hito has added some new art to her albums in the http://fanart.the-leaky-cauldron.org/user/profile/Hito! I am absolutely in love with this incredible vision of the evile Bellatrix LeStrange --
The look on her face is pure malevolence, and the way Hito has drawn the hair and robes billowing in some horrific malestrom is absolutely chilling! Fantastic job!
Posted by: Hito Sep 5 2007, 11:03 AM
Thank you Hagiographer!! 
Posted by: Alyonka Sep 5 2007, 11:55 AM
Hello,Hito,sorry for dreadful English,but I want to thank you for you works.They are wonderful!Are you work in Fotoshop?Can you explain how it works?
Posted by: Hito Sep 6 2007, 11:03 AM
Thank you Alyonka! ^^
I have done a tutorial, but it's old ^^ Here is : http://perso.orange.fr/hito-76/TutoE.html and another with Tonks but it's in french, sorry: http://perso.orange.fr/hito-76/TutoFr2.html
I hope that I help you a little ^^
See you!
Posted by: Alyonka Sep 10 2007, 09:09 AM
Oh,thanks a lot!I will begin to study it myself ,it is amazing!
Posted by: Hagiographer13 Sep 23 2007, 11:48 AM
Another fabulous new image from Hito is this picture of the trio, DH-era --
http://fanart.the-leaky-cauldron.org/picture/view/3851
I am especially struck by her use of the unifying architectural Hogwarts "belt". Since the school itself is a pivotal character in the series, it seems most appropriate and make a strong statement about the trio as defenders of the school. And, as the school is a metaphor for home, they in turn become the saviours of Jo's Wizarding World. Just an amazing image!
Posted by: Chickadee Sep 23 2007, 01:18 PM
I can't believe no one mentioned in all this time how amazing Hito is at fabric! I've never in my life seen an artist put such care into the drape and fold of fabric like she does! The blanket in the voodoo picture is a perfect example, and every character she draws has perfectly draped robes...it's just amazing.
Not to mention...Hito's Sirius is completely sexy (just as he should be!). I love the poker comic.
Personally, I can't wait for DH to come out in France in October, so she can come out of hibernation and grace us with some more amazing pictures!
Posted by: Alyonka Dec 4 2007, 06:48 AM
Yeah,I agree 'bout Sirius...
Posted by: Hagiographer13 Feb 2 2008, 09:46 PM
The incomparable Mlle. Hito has just uploaded this fascinating new piece to the TLC FanArt Gallery --
http://fanart.the-leaky-cauldron.org/picture/view/4673
This is quite a departure from her usual, colourful style, and the forced sepia-tone of the paper gives it an antique, and decidedly poignant tone.
Posted by: Hito Feb 8 2008, 06:59 AM
Thank you very much for your kindness

Oh my! I have not seen that before, and I just love it!
That is just amazing how she managed to make it so antiqued. Petunia's expression is perfect!I absolutely love Hito's work! Her Dumbledore is one of my favorite depictions I have found. I agree 100% with Chickadee her ability to depict fabric, and the exacting care she takes to get it just right is just awesome!
Hito we love your art!

Hito recently posted this amazing interpretation of "The Other Minister" from HBP --
I love the pseudo/sepia Frank Miller look, which is a MAJOR DEPARTURE in style for her!
You can see it in it's full glory http://fanart.the-leaky-cauldron.org/picture/view/5101 in the TLC FanArt Gallery.
Posted by: birthday twins Mar 30 2008, 01:41 AM
Wow that is fantastic!!!!!
I absolutely love the look on the Prime Minister's face in the last frame! The style is fabulous, and Fudge looks perfect, right down to the lime green bowler hat!

The Prime Minister looks very like Tony Blair, though technically speaking the British PM in office at the time the Other Minister chapter was set was John Major. What is the bird for in the last frame?Posted by: Hagiographer13 Mar 31 2008, 12:39 PM
Hito has done it again! THE BEST Snape/Harry canon moment ever has been captured by this ever-incredible artist!
You can find the non-animated version of this http://fanart.the-leaky-cauldron.org/picture/view/5163 in the TLC FanArt Gallery.
I love this so much! The expression on Harry's face at "no need to call me 'sir'" is priceless!

This is such an amazing image I couldn't wait to share it here in the forum!
I think that is one of my favourites too - though I vote for Harry because I like the wya you draw him, hito!
I also really like the one you did of Bellatrix - she looks like Malificent from Sleeping Beauty!

I also really like the way she has portrayed Snape. I can't stop looking at it, it's fabulous!

Here is a drawing of Ginny/Harry. Book 5. Again, the same theme as in the drawing entitled "Lui." or "Him" or "He"? I don't know in english... 
And...The man in the painting isn't laughing, he's snoring really loudly. It's not clear, sorry about that..."

Posted by: blue4t Apr 11 2009, 03:32 PM
I think it would translate to "him." Is Ginny crying? It's a wonderful piece of art.
Posted by: Hito Apr 11 2009, 06:55 PM
If you want, yes. If you don't, no ;-) In fact, she said goodbye (Adieu...
) to Harry (in her head) before to go with boys. (Book 5) So, yes... I think she cries ^^ Thank you!
Posted by: Bartimeus Crouch Sep 16 2009, 04:32 AM
Hito, you're a genius! I love your works!
http://fanart.the-leaky-cauldron.org/picture/view/1986 -> this is how I picture Sirius in my mind.
http://fanart.the-leaky-cauldron.org/picture/view/3636 -> how sweet...great pic of Tonks and Remus. I love how pixie-like Tonks looks.
the fanart I loved best is Hermione sleeping with Voodoo-Ron. It's hilarious and sweet at the same time. I love the attention you put in details...from Voodoo-Ron's fang, the folds of the blanket, to Hermione's hands and hair. Perfect!
