My Marauders Designs

First of all these are kinda just some sketches so I can get a grip on how I think they would have looked.. vaguely cannon less so with some but who gaf

Sirius

I think I struggled most with Sirius because I could never really pin down what was meant when people would call his face ‘aristocratic’ but I settled on a mix between Kate Moss and the boy I had a crush on in 4th year.. I was completely obsessed with him and would draw him in my sketchbook during class but alas he was excruciating straight and eventually got a girlfriend too. Anyway his face was always quite gaunt like he hadn’t eaten and his eyes were sunken but in this kind of elegant way.. like a wind would blow him over. He never had very long hair but he had thin black curls that were very floating which I think suits Sirius well. I think he turned out alright all things considered

James

I could always picture James quite easily in my head for some reason. A disarmingly good looking guy who you would hate on principle because of how easy he seemingly has it but as soon as you have a conversation your under his spell too tripping over your feet to get his attention. His hair would be mostly soft waves but every so often he’s get a clump that’s pin straight or curled into little ringlets.

Peter

I’m still not sure with my Peter.. I think I might have made his face a bit soft. I think he’s pretty hard to pin down as a character but to me I think he’s just a coward. Ratting your friends out isn’t some act of defiance but the road of leat resistance but idk I think I need to read up more on his character. I mainly based my Peter off tcoptp I haven’t really made up my mind on how I feel about the fic as a whole but its probably got my favourite Peter.. I think having a twin really fits him and the comparisons between the brothers really highlight Peters shortcomings for me… I am a bit delusional when it comes to Peter I’m afraid I just prefer him as a regular dude.. especially when the traitor plots seem so shoehorned in sometimes

Remus

I think it’s funny how hard people find lupin to characterise especially since he’s the marauder we spend the most time with. It definitely has something to do with how seemingly contradictory his personality and werewolfisms are.. personally I prefer is when Remus is a bit odd and awkward I’d imagine her very good at speaking to people older than him from being homeschooled most of his life but kind of inept and a bit obnoxious when it came to kids his age. He would probably be kind of ignorant of how most things work in practice ( hiding it desperately like most kids so) but have knowledge of most things muggle and magic in theory. Sorry I love ranting about Remus I’ll tell you about his actual design. I thought he’d have slightly wavy hair like an in between James and Sirius. I didn’t draw them on but I image he has had reading glasses since he was very young, probably keeping then on him at all times. I’m still not sure about the scars or how I drew them but they would probably be more discreet like something you would have to be closer to notice but not nearly as subtle as when he is a teacher. His skin has a bit more warmth than Sirius since he actually leaves his house in the summer.

I will stop ranting about Remus or I will never stop hope you like my designs :) feel free to use with credit if you want. And reblog if you have other ideas about their designs..this is like my second post on this account so I doubt it will get that far but yea :-) here is the full sketches

hi tumblr i. cannot get a thought out of my head so take this little wip thing....

[ Image ID: A sketchy, grey-scale comic, reading from left to right. Zenith, a lanky, thin man with fox ears and a long tail walks toward the right, having an indistinct conversation with another character who isn't visible. His ears are tilted back, and his shoulders are raised; he's nervous about where he's going. A small triangular cut out on the top right shows Zenith's expression as he stops, he's looking down at something, and looks afraid. His ears are pinned completely back, and his mouth is open slightly in shock. There's a small dialogue box between this cut out and the next, reading in shaky text, "what the...". The next cut out is a trapezoid on the bottom right, almost connecting with the top. There's an indistinct person sitting on the ground, half-leaning against the wall with their head down. Their hands are cuffed together, and their legs are splayed. They've been hit in the head. There's blood on the side of their head, dripping down their face and onto their arms, as well as blood smeared on the floor. /End ID. ]

i hope this hasn't been asked before. what size do you make your canvas? and do you crop it to fit other socials (like Instagram for example)? i hear that 300 dpi is standard. i never know if it's good to make my canvas big or not.

hi i think this ask is like at least 4 months old but i was scanning my sketchbooks from last year and i abruptly remembered i had gotten this ask because i had made a little chart in my sketchbook trying to figure out how to answer it

anyways theres pros and cons. and the size of your canvas is really going to depend on personal needs + preference. how good ur computer is, how complicated ur art style, how comfortable drawing feels, how much disk space you have to spare, what youre gonna end up using the art for in the end...300dpi is standard for PRINTING specifically, if you only plan to ever post things online then 72dpi works great and will save you space (fun fact a lot of professional animation files i deal with are 72dpi. and those eventually go on your tv screen). but personally i make everything i draw 300dpi because i am always printing stuff for cons, zines, etc and its nice to have the option even if i dont end up printing.

when I was a teen I used to draw on a rly shitty laptop and i made everything 800x800px 300dpi because big canvases would cause a lot of lag and also the resolution on this laptop was pretty small so 800px was a lot of the screen already. now i have a slightly better laptop with a bigger resolution and i sketch on giant 10000px-40000px canvases with the hard round brush and no shape dynamics or transfer whatsoever to minimize lag. when it comes to making a final illustration when i know ill be using a bunch of layer effects/blending modes/colors/mixing brushes etc etc ill generally crop the canvas down to the 6000px range. most illustrations i try to make sure are comfortably printable on tabloid size paper so thats pretty much anything hovering around or above 3000x5000px w 300dpi (so 11x17in). HOPE THIS HELPS?

EDIT: OH ALSO re: socials. i always ALWAYS size down my art to post on the internet. i think its crazy when other artists dont. because why would i ever let the internet have my hi-res file for free. also in general i think it looks better if you do the resizing yourself because if you don't then many social media sites will compress your file for you! a lot of people will post a hi-res file to twitter and then go "Wow twitter killed the quality of this img!!!" UH YEAH because they have an automatic image compressor. because they need to save space too lol and they dont want your image to take 248263895 years to load. same with instagram and to a lesser extent tumblr. when i post anything on social media i resize it down to 1200px-1600px on the longest side... its a little arbitrary but im kind of basing it on the smallest resolution of widely available screens. mostly because i think it looks stupid when u open up an image file fullsize and u have to scroll to see the whole thing... also iirc instagram only takes images up to 1080px before it resizes them? granted if you upload something smaller than that itll also resize it up which will look worse so I think bumping the numbers just over 1080px is pretty safe.

I should really be bringing the dpi down to 72 too when i post online but often im too lazy to do that. but it will technically help ur image load faster and stuff. and make it less likely for people to yoink it off the web and print it themselves.
