Comment on World of Twilight by jennieannie
Thank you very much. 
I have to say, that while I love Rob/Kristen drawings (obviously, since I've been known to draw them), I am a fan of the series more than a fan of the movie. I think that's what influenced my drawing for the contest. I didn't want to just promote the movie again (no matter how much I love it), when I find the books to be a thousand times better. See, I'm an old fan of the books, a Twilight Original. When I became hooked on Twilight, there was one fansite, no movie, only two books (one of which had just come out), and incredibly easy to meet the author. Nobody, knew of the series.
I was trying to draw something original that reminded people of how good the books were (in my opinion) and that the fandom doesn't revolve around the movie and it's two stars (no matter how much we love them).
You cannont even imagine how much your comment has meant to me!

Oh, I love your approach. I sort of have a similar thing with the Harry Potter series. I became an instant fan from the moment I finished the first book (haha, that was ages ago, I feel so old 
) and even though many people had heard of the books, there was none of that Daniel Radcliffe business yet . And then, about 2 years later the movie came out and everyone was suddenly running around with round glasses and pointy hats. 
I'm not very fond of the Potter movies, they're watchable, but they lack the original magic of the books.

I went to a Christian school where it was banned, and let me tell you, that almost made me read it but I wasn't much of a reader when it first came out. It's what got me into reading in the first place. Have you done any Potter art? I don't think I've seen it if you have...oh, and you can't be much older than me! I feel absolutely ridiculous with all the teeny boppers at the Twilight events. Lol, I see 13/14 year olds and I think, 'Holy Hell, I'm a decade older than this crowd.'

And yet I've collected some Potter movie stills and stuff that I'd really like to draw some day. I just haven't got around to it. I think I have to wait until the new movie comes out, I'll probably get inspired and Potter-crazy then and finally manage to draw Alan Rickman as Snape or something.
Ooh, Snape art! 
I love Snape artwork. I bet that will be awesome.
Even though they changed so much from the book, I can't wait for the movie to come out. Feels like it's been years...oh wait, thanks to WB it has been.
