Marauders

ATTENTION! New, updated version here: [link]

THE THIRD GUY FROM THE LEFT IS NOT HARRY POTTER. *Slap* DDDD: IT'S HIS DAD.

AND NO DH/HP7 SPOILERS. I've already read one spoiler in someone's signature by accident on passing, and I'm juuuuuust a little ticked. =___= I absolutely HATEHATEHATE spoilers.

LAWL. I sold this picture at Anime Evolution and people kept screaming and fangirling at them. XDDD They were like, "IS THAT.... IS THAT?!!.... IT IS!!! IT'S HARRY POTTER!!! <Insert fangirl squeal here>" And I heard a few other people talking to their friends in other languages (namely Chinese) going, "Harry Pota! Harry Pota! *Point. Point. Insert actual Chinese here.*" Haha. And LAWL. I think I probably bugged the crap out of and with my continuous onslaught of saying, "Hello!", "Hi there!", "How are you doing today?" at the convention. D:

I drew this in July but haven't uploaded it yet because I just felt like it would be a good idea to upload it after I went to the convention? Maybe I should have uploaded it before the convention, then more people would have recognized it if they went. >_> Oh well.

Personally, I'm a big Remus fan, and when I saw the HP movie(s) with him in it and saw an EFFING MOUSTACHE, I think I little part of me died inside. In my head, I do NOT picture him with a moustache, and so that bothered me quite a bit. D: This is my rendition of what the Marauders (or rather, Harry's Dad's group of friends) looked like when they were younger.

What are with the pawprints? If you haven't read at least book three, HP and the Prisoner of Azkaban, you wouldn't understand. ;D

Anyways, enjoy!
