More from this shoot will be uploaded soon!

Inspired by Harry Potter (C) JK Rowling

*I know the dark mark is supposed to be on her left arm, but it just so happened that for this shot it looked better on her right arm. Yes, it's upside down. It looks better that way and I'm too lazy to fix it. If I get one more comment about the frikin mark I might combust.

Just simply and utterly beautiful, doesn't matter about the Dark Mark on her arm, it's quite fine in my opinion. The lighting and shadows are excellent, and the way her hair is waving is spectacular, as well as her pose, and the way the Killing Curse is coming out of her wand is truly amazing. I just love the greenish glow coming off it, her dress is very beautiful as well. And the background being out of focus reverts our attention to her much better. I give this for Vision: Five, Originality: Five, Technique: Five, and Impact: Five. 20/20 for you, good sir. :)

This is absolutely flawless. Not only does the green glow seamlessly flow right off of the wand tip, you were also able to manipulate the colour of the light reflecting off of her skin to give it the feel of radiating towards her as the spell escapes. The dark setting and dark make up, hair, and clothing also authenticate her presence as that of evil, and makes the green glow appear to be sinister and looming, as opposed to bright, as it would have been on its own. And the tattoo is the absolute perfect touch. I think the ONLY bad thing to say about this is that the tattoo was always on the left forearm as opposed to the right. Aside from that, everything is put together perfectly and beautifully, in a very dark manner, with the entire piece looking like it came directly out of the Potter movies. Excellence incarnate!

If it's a problem to have the mark on the right arm, why can't the image just be flipped horizontally so that it looks as if the left arm is raised with the mark on it?

Anyways, gorgeous picture!

I'm gonna make you combust now... Any decent Potter Fan would know it should be flipped around and on the left arm... That's a wannabee Death Eater... so...

Enjoy your combustion :explosion:

I did know that. If I put it on her left arm you'd barely be able to see it.

This looks brilliant. I love the green glow the magic-fire's giving off, the model's pose looks great (love how the hair's wavy like that, to me it shows action, like she's dodging something and then doing the attack), and the Mark is nicely done.

Yeah, the mark is in the wrong place and blah blah blah, but it doesn't detract from how awesome this looks.
Oh, and :iconexpelliarmusplz:

What helped attain this fame? I wonder, was it the special effects, the fact the Harry Potter fandom was still alive, or the hypnotzing cleavage. Guess I'll never get my answer.
