35 “Harry Potter” Characters’ Looks According To Book Descriptions

Bored Panda got in touch with the author of this idea to learn more about her and this project. The woman revealed that she's a 28-year-old "nerd" living in Melbourne.

She has been a huge "Potterhead" since grade school. "I basically grew up with Harry, Ron, and Hermoine and remember waiting in line at midnight for the release of each book."

"I came up with the idea to recreate the characters when I tried to find some fanworks of Hermione. I watched the movies, and though I like Emma Watson, I always thought she was too gorgeous to be Hermione.

I couldn't find any renditions of her that I thought were accurate, so I ended up making her myself. People seemed to enjoy it so much that I decided to make more characters."

While some characters look similar to those in the movies, others look nothing like them. For MsBananaAnna, Sirius was the one she personally liked the most. "I thought that was plucked straight from my head.

Artbreeder can be pretty limiting in what you can do and can be a bit twiddly, so not all of the characters came out as I wanted, but I thought Sirius came out as I imagined him! Dark and regally handsome."

The recreations of Harry Potter characters got a lot of attention on Reddit (here and here) where MsBananaAnna (or, as she calls herself on Reddit, lettuceown) posted them.
