My friend Ama asked me to make a picture of the scene from 'Gravel Peril',the third Dresden Files book, when Harry sees Murphy using his Sight.



I've leant my book out to someone, or else I'd try to get the exact quote...

ETA: Courtesy of [livejournal.com profile] tigerkat24:

"The door burst open. Murphy came through it, her eyes living flames of azure blue, her hair a golden coronet around her. She held a blazing sword in her hand and she shone so bright and beautiful and terrifying in her anger that it was hard to see. The Sight, I realized, dimly. I was seeing her for who she was."
- Grave Peril by Jim Butcher




This was made to Ama's specifications of how she pictured the scene. My personal mental image is a little different. I might attempt that next.

Done with Poser 4 and postwork was done in PSP8.

Your quote, madam:
"The door burst open. Murphy came through it, her eyes living flames of azure blue, her hair a golden coronet around her. She held a blazing sword in her hand and she shone so bright and beautiful and terrifying in her anger that it was hard to see. The Sight, I realized, dimly. I was seeing her for who she was."

Awesome, awesome picture, by the by, and far be it from me to discourage any additions to the fandom whatsoever, so definitely make the other one as well.

Ah, thank you kindly m'dear (for the quotation and the compliment)! Ama's mental image was more angelic than mine. My mental!Murphy is more gritty and battle-weary than hers. In fact, our views were so different that it took me about three weeks to settle on the right look for Ama's picture, I kept going the wrong way with it.

Now, I just need to settle on my Poser!Harry and maybe add a Thomas and I'll have myself a nice little cast. :-D
