Hello! 

I added you, thank you! <3 

[howtohogwarts]

Are you gonna have Slytherin stick with his belief on muggles from cannon or change them

Hi! :D

This is a tricky question, because I don’t really wanna spoil anything hehe. Let’s just say he still won’t like muggles and mudbloods, but I’m gonna add my own twist to the story behind his hate :D (And sorry for the verry late reply :’)

[howtohogwarts]

Hello everyone! 

I don’t know if any of my followers are still here/alive/use tumblr/like Harry Potter or not, but I have big news!! I decided to finally continue my comic, How to Hogwarts, after I brutally abandoned it a few years ago. :D

How to Hogwarts is coming back on 1st of February! And my plan is to upload one page per week, probably on Wednesdays. 

I always felt bad for not continuing it, because I have put massive amount of work into it (writing the story, making multiple designs, illustrations I never showed you guys), except for actually drawing the comic and uploading my works. So I always wanted to continue it, but mentally I wasn’t there yet.

What happened to me in the last few years? Why didn’t I continue it before? I don’t want to write a long ass apology novel about the reasons, because I don’t think you’re interested in it. Long story short: I discovered a few months ago, that I probably have ADHD (couldn’t checked it out because of Covid..). Which results in me having no concept of time :D For example, when I think I uploaded the last chapter a few weeks ago, but actually I realize it was 6 months ago. And then I realize I haven’t done anything in 6 months, so I get depressed. And voilá we have depression :D Also I finished university, finished graphic design school, started working full time and it was  A LOT OF CHANGE. It was really hard to get a grip on my life. HOWEVER a few months ago, when I read into ADHD, I went to a psychologist and I finally started to feel way better and motivated to work on my personal projects. So here we are! :D 

I hope some of you guys are still here and just as excited about this as I am! :D <3

Hey guys, sorry for being so inactive for so long Q_Q i'm not even sure how regularly i'll be able to post, because i got a full time job, but during the holidays i'll answer messages i got from you <3

Anyway have a wonderful holiday season!

[howtohogwarts]

So I designed wands for the Hogwarts Founders :D I chose the woods according to their descriptions on Pottermore, I’ll quote a few sentences to show you why I chose those ^^ 

Helga Hufflepuff:

I wanted to give her some floral designed wand, a wand that’s very comfortable to hold. Chestnut wood: ‘The wand of chestnut is attracted to witches and wizards who are skilled tamers of magical beasts, those who possess great gifts in Herbology, and those who are natural fliers.’ For the core I chose phoenix feather, because pottermore said about chestnut+dragon heartstring/unicorn hair combo wouldn’t fit her personality.

Salazar Slytherin:

For this wand my main idea was to make it very pointy and sharp for stabbing purposes and kinda edgy xD This wand was used by him before he made himself the famous Basilisk-fanged wand. Silver Lime wood: ‘The reasons for these wands’ desirability lay not only in their unusually handsome appearance, but also because they had a reputation for performing best for Seers and those skilled in Legilimency, mysterious arts both, which consequently gave the possessor of a silver lime wand considerable status.’ He was a legilimentor, so yeah.

Godric Gryffindor:

For him I wanted to make it very simple and natural, like a stick you just found. I know it’s not a big design, but I thought it would go well with his personality. English Oak wood:’ Wands of English oak demand partners of strength, courage and fidelity. Less well-known is the propensity for owners of English oak wands to have powerful intuition, and, often, an affinity with the magic of the natural world, with the creatures and plants..’ For the Griffin claw core I thought it would be funny xD

Rowena Ravenclaw:

For this one I wanted to give a very original and creative look, because I imagined Ravenclaw would definitely have such wand. Walnut Wood: ‘Highly intelligent witches and wizards ought to be offered a walnut wand for trial first, because in nine cases out of ten, the two will find in each other their ideal mate. Walnut wands are often found in the hands of magical innovators and inventors; this is a handsome wood possessed of unusual versatility and adaptability.’ For the core I used a very unusual one, Sphinx hair, you know because of the riddles :D

Sorry for long post! <3

About the episode:

If you thought I was dead, you were right! But I’m emerging from the cemetery and back to some kind of a zombie-life xD Anyway here is a new page, which might not be funny at all, I’m sorry xD By the way I worked on a lot of stuff (for example the Founder’s wand designs) and I’ll upload them soooon :D

About the episode:

Bonus:

*Ravenclaw runs off to the closest library*

R: Give me all your books about Occlumency!! NOW!! D:< 

Yeah Ravenclaw hasn’t meet anyone before who was good in legilimency, so she never learned occlumency, but now... :D Actually at first I wanted to make Hufflepuff a Legilimens (just for the lulz), but then i re-read the wiki articles about the founders and realised it was Slytherin who was a Legilimens xD However the real question is: Is Slytherin’s hair weird shit or kinda cool?? 

Oh yeah, if you want to be tagged in the episodes - so you wouldn’t miss any, send me a message or note or smthg and i’ll tag u in the upcoming ones :3
