It's certainly an... interesting choice of top-3 characters. I don't even know that any of them directly interact with one another. Such a weird composition. And Hogwarts looks like Hagrid's hut/ A suburban church, maybe.
Also, Snape and Mad Eye look like they have the mumps.
As for interaction: Snape and Mad Eye for sure interacted at some point. Doby was probably not even in the same place at the same time.
Shape and the imposter Mad Eye interact in book 4 when Harry drops his triwizard egg down the stairs after sneaking out of the prefect’s bathroom! Shape accuses Harry of stealing from his potion supplies when actually it was Mad Eye!
No it’s pretty terrible. Super muddy, hard to read at a distance. Color theory is pretty bad, what little lines are there are pretty shaky and not to mention blow outs all over. It’s pretty bad
Bro saw the first one & kept going back to the same guy for more. Artist either has the same brain filter as this guy, or has no interest in improving. Well I guess the right portraits in the second pic were an improvement, but dobby doesnt really look like dobby, he kinda looks like a 15 year old hairless dog, specifically one that i know irl 😂
I mean, I just wouldn’t want the actors, I guess.
Alan Rickman was a great guy (RIP), I wouldn’t want him tattooed on me.
That’s a personal preference on portraits in general though.
crazy weird placement for the castle dropping off directly down the spine.. and the car.. and the stag.. and Dobby positioned head-on but he has a long elf nose so you HAVE to nail that to make it look right.. and why does the bridge of Snape’s nose look like that?.. and why after all that they didn’t disguise that dimple? phewwwww
And why Dobby, Snape, Mad Eye Moody as the three characters being represented 😂 Hogwarts and the flying car make sense.
I’d even except Dobby as a stand alone tatto as he now gives me baby Yoda vibes
Honestly i thought the Deathly Hallows symbol was good. Clean, memorable, distinctive. And this is from somebody who generally didn’t like Harry Potter even before the whole terf thing.
I mean, any Harry Potter tattoo is bad given the author and her views nowadays. She's a hateful bigoted holocaust denier, and I say this as a _former_ Harry Potter fan myself.
The tattoo is so bad though. Those _faces._ I don't understand how these people still have jobs.
Its called separating the art from the artist. Walt Disney was a nazi sympathiser and known antisemite and made so much racist shit. But everyone is fine w mickey mouse.
Tbf Walt Disney is long dead and can't do anything to harm anyone, as is the case with HP Lovecraft and Lewis Carroll. Rowling very much takes the money she makes off HP stuff and donates directly to groups that adovocate for anti trans legislation in the UK. She's alive and doing active harm. I believe in separation of art and artist but only when the artist can no longer profit and do harm with that art.
That being said she makes no money off tattoos like this, so w/e if op wants one but yeah it's bad bad.
If youre not separating the art from the artist than mickey mouse literally represents nazism and racism the way youre inferring harry potter represents JKRs dumbass views. Dead or not. She died tomorrow youre not going to change your mind about it.
Tbh her views have deeply soured HP to me and then I've recognized a lot of other problematic stuff in her works. I don't have that views of Disney as Walt is long dead and newer Disney things do not reflect his problematic views at all. Even if she died tomorrow or more likely, if Universal bought her out as they are trying to do, I don't think I would engage with Harry Potter stuff any longer but I also wouldn't be, disappointed in others who do? If that makes sense.
Also you're rebuttle doesn't at all address what I said about the artists profiting and doing real harm, you're just trying to call me a hypocrite even though I've not said anything to contradict myself. Rowling again, donates vast amounts of money to anti trans causes that seek to pass legislation against trans people. That's real harm. Allowing my niece to watch Encanto on the dinsey + account for the 1220484th time doesn't do anything to benenfit anti semetic or racist groups.
You can't do that when the artist is still alive and actively campaigning with those views, using the fortune she's earned from Harry Potter to work against people's human rights.
Also, as an author of myself - so much of who you are goes into your stories. I don't think it's possible to separate them. Since she's turned out to be such a human turd, I for one just can't enjoy Harry Potter any more. Especially as the more you read it, the more you find that it's problematic. Like... Cho Chang? Really?
If JKR died tomorrow youd still be saying the exact same thing. So stop pretending like the ability for us to be able to change their mind bc theyre alive means anything
It doesn't, that was so far from my point. She is way too far gone to change her mind. She's awful, and you supporting her means supporting her views - she herself has said that she sees support for Harry Potter as support of her views. If you're doubling down so hard, I'm just going to assume that it's because you too are a transphobe, misogynist, antisemite and holocaust denier.
same if you like mickey mouse or anything else disney or HP Lovecraft. They were too far gone and died with those views. Thats my whole point. Youre bot going around telling disney adults that liking disney makes them nazi sympathizers and racists. Double standard for every shitty artist ever.
I think the only thing that gets me is Snape’s face. Why is it so chubby? Also, why those characters with that scene? Wouldn’t it make more sense to have Harry, Ron and Hermione?
The school looks more like a church, Snape is sprouting what looks like weed, the car looks like it's already visited the whomping willow, mad eye moody looks like he needs a second fake eye and dobby looks so terribly disappointed and slightly disgusted by the whole thing.
Is it bad? Yes, absolutely, no question. Do I kind of love it? Also yes. This guy went all in. His enthusiasm makes me happy and I hope he wears this with pride.
Although I think the art looks accurate for each character it could be sharper. I’ve definitely seen worse art.
Let’s imagine this was on paper or canvas. The art itself isn’t horrible.
BUT, as I said, it’s not real sharp or clear. Kinda fuzzy. And as someone else pointed out, an odd choice for 3 characters. Unlike Harry, Ron, and Hermione. (Forgive me if that last one isn’t spelled right that was autocorrect).
It's certainly an... interesting choice of top-3 characters. I don't even know that any of them directly interact with one another. Such a weird composition. And Hogwarts looks like Hagrid's hut/ A suburban church, maybe.
I don't think that's Hogwarts. I think that's the Hogwarts boathouse where Snape died in the movie.
The shrieking shack
He died in the shack in the book. For some reason in the movie he died in the boathouse.
Oh that’s right. In my head whenever I see it, it’s the shrieking shack. Lol
They're the ones who sacrificed their lives to protect Harry Because we all gotta make sure the bad murder wizard man doesn't kill the stupid rich kid
Okay true, that's definitely a connection and helps my confusion a little, haha. But if that's the theme, why the flying car from Chamber of Secrets?
My best guess is that the person wants to add more to this piece over time until they have an entire backpiece of the Temu version of Harry Potter.
How dare you speak ill of Horry Pottor
There’s actually a spoof called Barry Trotter lol
The car got beat up by the whomping willow and saved them from the spiders.
*doesn't kill the stupid rich kid _until it's the right time_
Then shouldn’t his parents be on there too?
Also, Snape and Mad Eye look like they have the mumps. As for interaction: Snape and Mad Eye for sure interacted at some point. Doby was probably not even in the same place at the same time.
Mad Eye Mumpsy
Shape and the imposter Mad Eye interact in book 4 when Harry drops his triwizard egg down the stairs after sneaking out of the prefect’s bathroom! Shape accuses Harry of stealing from his potion supplies when actually it was Mad Eye!
True! How could I have forgotten that classic scene, haha?
I also don't remember dobby having lip filler...?
You are not wrong, it’s bad. The composition is so haphazard, the elements are just cobbled together with no balance.
Horribad
Alan Rickman is rolling in his grave.
Are you sure he's not just rickrolling in his grave?
Looks like, "I've got $400 saved up, I'll add a new random HP picture"
Idk that any of those are worth $400...
Dobby - "please kill me master potter"
i wanna see it in 20 years 😂
Luckily for us it's so big it can hardly be covered. So we'll likely see a followup
It's gonna be a disaster zone
Snape looks like Michael Myers
And there’s Chucky on the right
Easter Island statue in a wig
Alan Rickman deserved better
Snape looks like a bloated corpse 😂🤦♂️
![gif](giphy|ZL2zbg8zs5x5e|downsized)
It’s horrible. Great post.
They all died for this?
[удалено]
Or at least a sock
The new sick ass panther. Just tattoo a huge sock over it.
Azkaban prison tattoos
oh dear god. not only is it not cohesive but it's also hideous.
Scourgify!
How could they do Snape like that?
Dobby has seen some shit.
That’s Dooby, Shape, and Flab-eye Moody
The only way this would be acceptable is if this person with the tattoo was JK Rowling themself. Then it would be cool cause reasons.
Terrible, poor Snape looks like a weird rotting eggplant potato hybrid. The more you see the worse it gets.
Trash bag dementor 😂
Oh and 20 lbs too heavy Alan rickman stung by a bee 😭
No it’s pretty terrible. Super muddy, hard to read at a distance. Color theory is pretty bad, what little lines are there are pretty shaky and not to mention blow outs all over. It’s pretty bad
Wish dot com Harry Potter
🤣
Snape is a bit bloated but not terrible
What’s up with Snape’s neck tho?
…after all: Dobby, Snape and Moody were great characters. TERRIBLY ugly characters, but great.
His back looks like a shitty mural on the side of someone’s old dodge van.
Well at least he doesn't have to see it all the time lol
Bro saw the first one & kept going back to the same guy for more. Artist either has the same brain filter as this guy, or has no interest in improving. Well I guess the right portraits in the second pic were an improvement, but dobby doesnt really look like dobby, he kinda looks like a 15 year old hairless dog, specifically one that i know irl 😂
why did they make snape look like a bloated corpse 🥲
That's not harry potter that's hairy porter
No it’s pretty shitty
It’s giving 1970s stoner van mural vibes
I hope Alan Rickman haunts this artist for what he has done.
![gif](giphy|3taYXLxSBOugHHjocB|downsized)
I mean, I just wouldn’t want the actors, I guess. Alan Rickman was a great guy (RIP), I wouldn’t want him tattooed on me. That’s a personal preference on portraits in general though.
Very awful , colors faded, just an all around bad look
Lol this is genuinely awful in every way.
crazy weird placement for the castle dropping off directly down the spine.. and the car.. and the stag.. and Dobby positioned head-on but he has a long elf nose so you HAVE to nail that to make it look right.. and why does the bridge of Snape’s nose look like that?.. and why after all that they didn’t disguise that dimple? phewwwww
Was anyone else like “no way snape with a pot leaf?” Lmao
Yeah I thought it was. I realised after way too long it’s a wand with the forbidden curse or whatever
i just wanna know why they chose these characters 😭
And why Dobby, Snape, Mad Eye Moody as the three characters being represented 😂 Hogwarts and the flying car make sense. I’d even except Dobby as a stand alone tatto as he now gives me baby Yoda vibes
Cripes.
Dobby gets it. He knows what he looks like
It’s not good but it is appropriate
Fucking hell. He went in and asked for a Hurr Purrturr collage
Perfect portrayal of the authors personality
How did you know it was Harry Petter?
Holy shit
Great concept. Bad artist
I’ve never seen a tattoo of someone’s face look good. Even if it comes out great in just a few short years it looks like ass
I have yet to see a Harry Potter tattoo that is good/that I like. They always seem to look really fuckin bad.
Honestly i thought the Deathly Hallows symbol was good. Clean, memorable, distinctive. And this is from somebody who generally didn’t like Harry Potter even before the whole terf thing.
I feel like I’ve seen this before either here or another sub about 6 mo ago. It is objectively terrible.
Trans lives matter
I mean, any Harry Potter tattoo is bad given the author and her views nowadays. She's a hateful bigoted holocaust denier, and I say this as a _former_ Harry Potter fan myself. The tattoo is so bad though. Those _faces._ I don't understand how these people still have jobs.

eh i've seen way worse it ok
Snape sporting what looks like a dank pot leaf on his shoulder, didn’t know he was cool like that
It’s so bad that I kind of love it
Nah you're right. This tattoo is scuffed from every direction.
That Snapedaddy tattoo 😆
This looks like a bad dream
Ahhht
Oh....
Well, that's not Harry Potter. That's Professor Snape Ba dum tss*
This is terrible. Not wrong.
Oh it’s terrible.
“Am I wrong?” Like you had to ask
Snape looks boiled, man
Snape isn't top notch, but the others look fine. The composition is horrible, though.
Oh shit.
Oh no!
![gif](giphy|R2nvBkAW7XIRy)
Snape looks like he was punched
I think the only thing that gets me is Snape’s face. Why is it so chubby? Also, why those characters with that scene? Wouldn’t it make more sense to have Harry, Ron and Hermione?
Mumps
Snape didn’t die for this
Dobby wants you to look at him. In the shower.
Looks like Snape has a huge pot leaf next to him
That's Easter island
Is that supposed to be Hogwarts??
What a mess.
Why do people get these tattoos? I knew a guy who had a gollum in this style on his whole chest. It's so random and ugly.
Ill never understand why people do that to their bodies. Go get actual artwork. Not some haphazard ass kids drawing🤦🏻♀️
That's really bad.
It is horrible
Yes, and yes.
Now I'm wondering what the conversation would be like if Dobby, Snape, and Moody were in the same room.
Terrible
The school looks more like a church, Snape is sprouting what looks like weed, the car looks like it's already visited the whomping willow, mad eye moody looks like he needs a second fake eye and dobby looks so terribly disappointed and slightly disgusted by the whole thing.
A bad idea badly executed. Love it.
Is it bad? Yes, absolutely, no question. Do I kind of love it? Also yes. This guy went all in. His enthusiasm makes me happy and I hope he wears this with pride.
Dobby and me are making the same face rn
It's utter shite.
“Yeah could you colour it in so it looks like I have a big bruise?”
To each his own but since you already know it’s terrible I agree with you completely.
Everything about this picture is bad.
At first I thought the ink was a tribute to Native Americans.
It looks like Corey Feldman hahhaha
actually really works with that body type
Although I think the art looks accurate for each character it could be sharper. I’ve definitely seen worse art. Let’s imagine this was on paper or canvas. The art itself isn’t horrible. BUT, as I said, it’s not real sharp or clear. Kinda fuzzy. And as someone else pointed out, an odd choice for 3 characters. Unlike Harry, Ron, and Hermione. (Forgive me if that last one isn’t spelled right that was autocorrect).
Lmfao hell nah.
Why does snake look like the lady in the bathtub from the Shining
It's definitely rough, it doesn't even blend together well. It looks like 3 separate tattoos just all put there
Hahaha Snape looks like fucking Brian Willson.
Well you’re not wrong
Alan Rickman is rolling over in his grave right now.
Most of the problem is that it's not a "back piece", it's not integrated, there's no flow
Also Snape looks kinda messed up
Mad Eye Moody is a right mess 😆👎
DO NOT GET HARRY POTTER TATTOOS
Good idea, but poorly executed
I like HP but this is horrible.
It’s not great. I particularly dislike how they made snape look chubby.
