I love the transition from little Sev to big Sev. He's so adorable on the left and then so yummy on the right. You really did an amazing job with his hands. Drawing hands is immensely difficult to begin with but you not only drew them realistically, you also managed to make Sev's hand sexy in the second half. That is something amazing.... There is innocence and flirtation on both sides that isn't blatant and yet irrefutably there. Nice!

So glad you liked the hands. They ARE hard to draw and I had to work with a few references to get them like this.

I had so much fun drawing to young'uns looking into each others eyes over the lollipop!

This is lovely. I like the how the younger Severus has fingerless gloves and how his fingernails are longer, dirty and chipped. Just like a young child. I also like his hands in the older picture. Also I like that the nose is smaller when he is younger, because children features are not usually so developed at that age. I say that because I’ve seen some pictures or read some stories where young Severus is pictured with a huge nose. And I always like a Snape and Lily smoking scene. This is just great.

Thank you for the comment on the nose. I had hoped that the change wouldn't be too unbelievable because I just couldn't find a way to work in a good hook on such a young kid.

I have a little baby crush on Severus' tongue!! Not in a RAWR! way, but in a oh-it's-the-cutest-thing-ever way!!

And his dirt under the nails, cut off finger-Oliver Twisty hands!! And the way he holds a cigarette...now that is RAWR!!

Amazing "mystery" artist!!

Yay! Reveals up! It was killing me...the need to say, "Neener, neener, neener, I got to see this for realz!!"

Although, it looks just as amazing on the screen!

That's awesome! The change from rounded, innocent looking kids to not-so-innocent teenagers is magnificent! Severus' hooded gaze on the last panel! Hell, I would've kissed him! :D

LOL! That's a high compliment coming from you! :D

Your work deserves many high compliments whatever your subject :)

*blushes*

Now that is indeed high praise. I hope my Molly, when I get around to her (and Arthur) deserves as high a compliment.
