Fic art, Snape/Lily, by [livejournal.com profile] winkout
A series of four illustrations for a fic on FFN called Lily's Charm. Someone remarked in the comments that one thing that makes these so great is the body language, and that's spot-on. The sparse colour palette (black/white/grey and a kind of ochre/tan colour) is very nice too; lends them a kind of "sepiatone" quality. My favourite is the third one, where it looks like Lily's just told Severus that they're going to have a son. The way he's holding her body against his and the gentle expression on his face (eyes closed, even) are just amazing.

Severus Snape, by thessaly
For a photomanip of one of the promo shots of Rickman!Snape, this is really impressive. The nose and chin are not really what I see in my own head, but the way it is so totally not Alan Rickman anymore is very cool.

Lily's Kiss, by sympatex
I'd have called this "Severus's Kiss", personally, because he looks like the instigator here. ;) Kissing is very hard to draw, and usually even when well-done I get a kind of "does it really look like that?" kind of feeling. I don't get that at all from this one. The spot where their mouths meet is just perfect.

Severus Snape - The Repentant, by panatenshi
Woobie!Severus ahoy, including big anime eyes, although he's far from bishie. I'm not sure how old he's supposed to be here; I picture it as ca. 1980. He looks so sad and lonely, and I like the gloomy green and black of the background. Also, I think I have a new fetish: Severus wearing black gloves, as he seems to be doing here.

Snivellus by ghn-hitokiri
Very quick little sketch; feels "fast" to me, like it was just meant to capture a tiny little moment of expression. Possibly a tad too pretty, but those are what I call some "curtains" of hair!

If you insist... by coNstantine2530
Long (tall) illustration of the scene in "The Prince's Tale" where Severus is wailing about "I thought you were going to keep her safe" and Dumbles says "oh, but her son survives". I'm not sure why this artist does Severus with only about cheek-length hair (she does it in other works too), and he looks older to me than the 21 years he should be here, but his facial expressions and body language are great.

Severus and Lucius posing their evol poses. Last one had hair too short? Well, here's too long. (And some unlikely clothing.) But I can't say I'm complaining. Extra-long hair is really rather flattering on him.
