You could say this was an anti-inspired image. Normally, I draw something cos I'm inspired by a certain image or look. This one, I can safely say I was inspired to do my own style and image for the character because I didn't like the other source(s). In this case, this was done to reject the stylistic choices of Caladan_DD from LiveJournal, whose Sirius is generally drawn with frilly cuffs and really overly-poncy attire (IMHO, of course, no offense intended) and also to reject the old ex-hippie/biker look they're giving to Gary Oldman in the Harry Potter movies. In terms of design and execution, my favorite parts of this image are his eyes and brows, plus his hair, beautiful highlights. It looks more reasonable for an old-school wizard than the hippie look. Not quite so fond of his ear. It's too big on top, but a reasonable 'ear' in general. The only bits inspired by Caladan was the scrolling stuff on the hem of his lapel. I liked that bit of her artwork. This image is a 100% original pose, no cribbing, just FYI.
