Well, this is a drawing that I have been working on for a while. It’s not my oldest sketch, but it’s up there. Anyhoo, this is a thank you present for both Sarea Okelani and Elle Blessing, both of whom sent me some CDs in exchange for a drawing. Instead of drawing them each a picture, I drew them this one, and I am going to send them prints.

I’ve always found I get the weirdest ideas in my head when I go to Laundromats. I don’t go to them very often (for yes, I took my clothes home with me, even when I lived 300km away) but this idea popped into my head when I did wander into one over a year ago: Draco and Ginny waiting in their oldest/oddest clothes for their clothes to be cleaned. Ginny is of course wearing her bride’s maid dress from Ron and Hermione’s wedding, since she can’t sanely wear it any other time than when she has nothing left to wear. Lol. I used many photo references, including a picture of David Bowie for Draco’s face position. I think this is my most Bowiest Draco yet. Yay! I am really happy with the colouring, even though it looks completely different from what I had initially intended. Oh well. What do you think??

Edit: I put up a newly scanned version of this one. The colours weren't quite right...

haha wow this is like every college/twenty-somethings day at the laundromat. I love the expressions and the rendering of space.

Oh wow, that's really amazing. Yay for inspiring laundromats.
I reallly love Ginny's dress. And her legs are wonderful looking, so slender and muscled. That rustic orange color is gorgeous and fits the dull tone of the laundromat.

Yes, Draco looks a lot like David Bowie! In a good way. He has that spacey expression of not really paying attention that he's staring her down. And I love the idea of them wearing their eh clothes while washing their other ones, so true!

Love it. Favorite.

If you say you're right, then you must be right. But I still refuse to believe in you.

What's that you say? You know my faults? You have the cure?

(You are the poison)

This is the moment right before they find out Draco has accidentally left a red sock with the whites and Ginny has a fit, her new white dress is now a sullen, dull pink.

And then she beats him to death with her book, right there in the laundromat... ;p

That is a very Bowie like face on Draco. I think he may break into "As the World Falls Down." And I love Ginny's dress
:iconginchan:
There are blood... everywhere. HO!
