The Plead :HBP Spoiler:

As some of my loyal watchers noted in the Scrap department, I was keen on illustrating that decisive moment between Narcissa and Snape. I made a little sketch in Painter, which worked out my imagination around the scene well, but when I started detailing it all went to hell.

I decided it was wise to switch techniques as it might give the thing new perspective. I drew an old dusty canvas board out of my closet and started to paint since ages. After a few days of pacing and redo little bits this is the result I'm moderately happy with. (I was hoping to lay more emotional dynamics in the piece than I managed) But I hope you will be delighted to see it. Note that this is my personal preferred depiction of Snape and Narcissa which I like to share with you to counter balance the many anime depictions a bit.
