Hermione

Inspired to do some Harry Potter cartoons after reading OMGRYFFINDOR. And inspired by Harry Potter of course. It has long been a dream of mine to live long enough to see Harry Potter: The Animated Series. Not that such a thing is coming out, but now that the films are over it is surely only a matter of time. I also think Harry Potter: the BBC serial would be great. A series would allow for more of the jokes and general surroundings of Hogwarts to be brought in. A more low key medium, for cosy home viewing, would reflect my experience of the books. Thinking of the Pratchett and Sarah Waters adaptations, the sets are always very rich. It's important to me that the series brings the stories to us as something to inhabit. Sets, cinematography will help that, but that the longer format would allow more of the novels' details to be included is the main thing. Tom Baker would make a good Dumbledore. Of course, most actors that come to mind have already starred in the films. 

Anyway. This is a young Hermione. Her hair looks more orange here than I remember from my original illustration. I definitely did not choose orange paint. I did want an auburn brown rather than a oakey brown or a yellow-glint brown for her hair though. That's my personal view. 

You may say: what's this? This is not the sex-pot Hermione we know. No. Not just because it's not Emma Watson, but because she's eleven. It's the young Hermione who needs braces and has trouble controlling her hair.
