I was inspired to make a Harry/Draco manip by this photo of Harry holding the Death Eater mask all Hamlet-esque. The basic story is that Harry finds Draco’s Death Eater mask and confronts him about it, because he’d told Harry he wouldn’t join the Death Eaters. Angst ensues.

I've made my second batch of Doctor Who mashup icons, including the requests I received from the previous post. Contains Doctors, Masters and companions from the all eras. 32 icons in total.

Wow, I haven't updated in over a month. Dammit, tumblr, why must you take up all my time?! Oh by the way, I have a tumblr: http://karlimeaghan.tumblr.com/

I haven't got a big update, just a piece of Doctor Who fan art I made featuring the 11 Doctors. Rated G, no spoilers.

It’s been over a week since I saw Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 and I’m finally sitting down to write my thoughts on it. I’ve been holding off on posting my review not only because this is the last HP film I’ll ever do this for (at least in terms of having seen the film for the first time), but because I have so much to say. Like my mini-tribute in my previous post, I have so much I want to get out but I’m not sure how to do it properly. But I’ll give it my best.

And of course, SPOILER WARNING for all books and all movies. Also warning for language; I get rather emotional at parts.

I'm seeing the midnight showing of Harry Potter & the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 so I felt the need to post this before I leave for the show tomorrow. The Harry Potter fandom has been and always will be a place I truly feel I belong, and has been such a constant part of my life, be it through reading the books, seeing the movies, meeting other fans, and creating various works like the above image. I started reading the books after one of my dads gave me the first three. I think I was in middle school at the time and I was skeptical about the books; I often recieved books for presents from relatives, thinking I’d like them, and very rarely did they wow me (not that I didn’t appreciate the thought). But my dad seemed to really like these ones, so I gave them a shot, and I was hooked. I’m now 27 years old and my love for the series has only grown with each new book and movie release (my dad is still a fan too; he loves Kreacher and thinks J.K. Rowling should write her next book about him).

I’m excited for the movie, I’m also sad that it’s coming to an end. But I know the fans will keep it going for years, decades, hopefully forever, and the story will never be really finished or over or done or gone. That’s what this image is trying to represent; even though it will all end with the last movie, the magic of the story, and the community that has grown from it, will never end.

Thank you Dan, Rupert and Emma for letting us watch you grow as actors on screen, and for breathing life into Harry, Ron and Hermione. Thank you Tom, Matthew, Bonnie, Evanna, and all the other young actors and actresses who spent their youth as supporting parts in Harry's world. Thank you all you brilliant thespians who signed on to play relatively small roles which you brought to life beautifully. Thank you all the behind-the-scenes magic makers who managed to bring the books to the screen faithfully and without letting the CGI overshadow the characters and the story being told.

But most importantly, thank you J.K. Rowling. Without you, none of this would have happened. You’ve changed and blessed many people’s lives for the better, and given us a world to treasure long after the books are read and the movies are finished.

I love reading fanfic and watch fanvids pairing different Doctors, Masters and companions together from different eras (as with my Susan/Other Doctors icons here and my young!Sarah Jane/young!Jo Grant icons here). So while my internet was being a pain in the ass, I spent my time making a ton of mashup icons. I also made a manip of Four/Jamie/Sarah Jane. I made it almost by accident, when I realized I could make the icon-sized manip bigger and it would still look good.

Contains Doctors, Masters and companions from the First, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Ninth, Tenth, and Eleventh eras. 34 icons in total.

HAPPY CANADA DAY!!!
As always, I had to make a post in honour of my country; this one is a small post, just 10 Canada-themed icons. Rated PG-13 for one icon that features Shawn Ashmore wearing nothing but the Canadian flag (no actual nudity).

Don't worry, I'm still here! I've just been busy with night classes, but I took a break today to finish this Bellatrix manip. I just found out that Tom "Draco Malfoy" Felton is going to be at FanExpo this year, I'm SO excited! :D

Anyhoo, this manip uses a promo image of Mary-Louise Parker from Weeds as a base; it just screamed "Bella!" to me, especially with the Slytherin-green curtains and box interior. Image rated PG, she's naked but you can't see anything. Base icons included.

I noticed the links to my previous HP House quotes icon posts have been taking up more and more space in my posts, so I've moved them all to their own post here.

I've made batch 26 of my HP House quotes icons. Most of the quotes are from Doctor Who, because I'm just that big of a nerd. ;)

All requested and recommended icons are also included.
