An artist I follow did "30 days of Harry Potter" and did a drawing for different things from the world, and they were sooooo cute. Something like that would be so much fun 🤩 also omg..... brush markers are the absolute best... what a wonderful friend @AuroraKadavra
I love doing fan art, and with the animations from this game being sooo amazing i think it's high time i took on the challenge! I'd love to see the Harry Potter fan art you mentioned @JulieJubz
I forgot to say she also gave me a little ringbound folder nearly A4 size with top quality paper in so that will be the book I use. Perfect for the brush markers so they don't soak through. That's the rest of my week planned- apart from being out pottering of course 😀
Hope you guys don't mind but I'd like to just share a couple of the shots that will be my first choice of confoundables...
@AuroraKadavra Those are awesome screenshots. It looks like the pixie in the screenshot is looking down at the mooncalf in the picture below as if it plans to come after it as soon as it breaks out of its bubble.
@AuroraKadavra I know right, lol. We must pool our resources to protect this adorable mooncalf. On a serious note though, they really are so cute and you’ve captured that cuteness so perfectly.

I got McGonagall for the 3rd time! Woohoo! Then my first Quidditch captain Harry, my 2nd Young harry.
Also got Quidditch keeper Ron, think 3rd, then Young Hermione and my first Quidditch Hermione!
Got the Weasley car again, another Swooping evil and the Philosophers stone twice.
Think that's a decent week- was excited to see the animation for quidditch Hermione- stopped in my tracks & thought 'oooh what's this!!?' Lol. Not the same reaction for first quidditch Harry of course seeing as he'd been on the Brilliant Event & I think we'd all had quite enough of seeing that one by the end lol.
How have you guys been doing? Any notable emergency/severe threats or first for you?
Im really hoping we see an increase in the higher levels again before October Brill Event as we did the last one. It didnt happen for community day, but fingers crossed for an epic October! 😀
That’s a great week @AuroraKadavra !!! Bravo! We’ve had a good week as well! Swooping evil, philosopher stones, firenze (my last one, departed😩), Graves (placed, woohoo), Young Hermione, the veil (I love the veil), tank of brains (and it didn’t flee!💃💃), Pickett (weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee), hubby got unicorn TWICE IN ONE DAY, Quidditch Harry (you’re right about being bored of that one 😂), quidditch Hermione last night, Whomping Willow (woohoo), and this morning 25 doxies (I’m tired, but very productive morning). We also saw Young Harry, he fled on hubby, but I got him. Sad thing is I might not have gotten credit. It was glitching to map after catching doxies, and I think it’s at the same number as before. I reported in app, so we’ll see if I hear back on that.
Wow @Dogoutlaw ! I thought I'd had a decent week!! Firenze is one of those dreaded ones for me who 9 out of 10 departs! Drives me nuts lol.
First time i saw the veil I thought it was the mirror, then realised there was no cutesy troll in his tiara so was stumped until the reward screen came up lol.
Man! That's a lotta doxies!!! Think im still about 10 away from my first 25! So rare for me but getting better as dawn now coincides with the school run more.
That is gutting about young Harry. The game is so glitchy at min. Im having to restart a few times & being kicked out to map a good few times. Just patiently waiting out the known issues & hope sorted soon.
The worst part for me is being thrown out at end of every portkey without seeing the rewards- i have been keeping data on those for a good while now so ive been unable to write it in my book! Noooooo!! That is not conducive to my nerdishness!!! 😂
Congrats. Unfortunately putting food in the table and shaping young minds keeps getting in the way of returning foundables. My goal right now is to complete the daily tasks each day.
Thanks @AuroraKadavra ! We’re definitely getting the hang of our evening runs.
Darn @Osprey1 , hopefully you’ll get in some quality playing time soon. We just have the dogs at home, so less demands of our time atm. Will change for me next month tho, so we’ll see how that goes.
I can’t remember the whole week. I remember getting a whomping willow a few days ago and Firenze today, but the highlight for me was when I finally got Tom Riddle today for the first time. So happy:
Ahh no @Osprey1 it's tough going some weeks to find the time for fun stuff! Sorry to hear you've been so busy. I just have odd days where I'm taxi for my youngest to & from appointments etc, but still get some time to play. Hope u can get a bit of chill time soon.
Congrats on Tom Riddle & womping willow @Imaginatio i love it when i see something for the first time! When quidditch Hermione showed up i apparently said 'it's Hermioneeeee' in such a shrill voice i hurt my daughters ears! Lol. Oh dear- I really do get lost in this game at times 😀
@Dogoutlaw , @AuroraKadavra Thanks. And yes, first encounters are amazing. I think there’s still two things I have yet to encounter, but I have probably seen everything else once - even if I didn’t manage to get it.
@AuroraKadavra it’s just that sort of game, it pulls you in. Also , I’m sure Firenze doesn’t hate you. Though I totally get what you mean when something departs like that. Especially after using so much spell energy. Oh well, next time. Just keep at it, us wizards cannot give up. 😊
I've barely been playing this week! October and November are THE most busy months of the year for me, I do two different challenges, a drawing one followed by a writing one (31 days of drawing followed by 30 days of writing? Hah, what could go wrong with THAT?) so my hands are going to fall off (I say that every year but I swear it will be true someday).
I'm super looking forward to the new events, at least that way I'll force myself to play more again (although I still do the game dailies every day... cannot skip getting free coins, yo! Haha).
Well i got firenze showing up again today @Imaginatio & once again departed!! 🤦🏼♀️ you're right though- i won't give up!! Lol
On the plus side i got my 4th McGonagall whilst just sat on the couch today!! She popped round for a brew 😂 and later got the womping willow again! So was pretty chuffed with those for a Monday!
Dusk run went well too with 5 horned serpents, about 8 erklings & finally placed Rowena Ravenclaw's portrait. Still hufflepuff & slytherin to place on those they depart so often on me!
Did 23,600xp today though and levelled up to 34- definitely a productive Monday. Bring on the Brilliant Events!! 😀
@JulieJubz i have a friend does the inktober, he says the pace is unrelenting & it totally takes over his life for the month! Every credit to you for doing that- hope it goes really well for you.
Im sure you'll be able to squeeze in the Brilliant Events somehow & just pray your hands don't fall off!! Lol. Good luck! 😊
@AuroraKadavra oh no, not again. Just keep at it. Firenze will have to give in at some point.
Congratulations on the productive day. I still have Slytherin to do from that frame (Not including the wild boar from the fortress), but whenever I get Slytherin he keeps departing and I’m usually too stubborn to use a potion on those portrait fragments. I’ll get there, eventually. 😂
I can’t wait for the brilliant event to start either. They’re always fun, plus I still need more green books.
@AuroraKadavra , @Imaginatio yeah it's Inktober and NaNoWriMo back to back. I did two years of those two, back to back, and those two years partially killed me... it's like a horcrux, just taking a year of your life every time you do them (instead of taking part of your soul... oh and the only person you're killing is yourself).
I wanted to try doing the two events again last year but had to stop because I... somehow injured my eye (don't ask, haha). So this year I'm only technically doing NaNo, BUT! Problem is that I'm doing art for a project AND my day job is also art, so in a way I'm still doing worse than inktober hahahahahhahahaha..... halp
@JulieJubz Wow. If you’ve continued doing it, then you must have found it useful. I do hope you get through it and enjoy it. Plus, that is a lot of art. Don’t be too hard on yourself and remember to take care of yourself.
Also, I hope your eye is okay and you don’t injure it again.
Whenever someone says don’t ask or don’t do something specifically, I always remember the red button situation. A person is told not to press a red button, but as soon as they’re alone, they can’t ignore that urge and press it anyway - and then disaster strikes (usually). 😂

Lol- let's play guess what happened to @JulieJubz eye, @Imaginatio - let's push that red button! 😂
So she was walking along the street playing PoGo (cos she's always playinng some game or another) and she was so oblivious that she nearly walked into a lamppost- she saw it just in the nick of time and looked upwards as tho to bless her lucky stars or to thank the lord when a bird happened to be flying over at that exact moment & the inevitable happened!!
Cue- bad infection, she got antibiotics from the doctor but unfortunately they didn't agree with her & her eye swelled to double its size so she looked like 😜 emoji !!! After a change of antibios she was finally cured just in time for the end of the challenge so she could read the words 'dont forget the deadline for all work to be in is today'
True story!! 😂😂
Sorry Jubz- just kidding!!!
That bird tho! She's been on the lookout for it ever since! - it has the 2nd part of her horcrux!!

@AuroraKadavra I love the mooncalf! So cute!

I hadn't noticed that @Imaginatio - it really does! Run mooncalf...run!!! Lol

That mooncalf shot! absolutely perfect @AuroraKadavra, also I'll see if I can find the artist for you!
Sorry guys for repeat of images- it would let me delete them or put a new comment without them! Tried all sorts then gave up & re posted! Lol.
So this last week I've had a few firsts thought id share with u....
I got McGonagall for the 3rd time! Woohoo! Then my first Quidditch captain Harry, my 2nd Young harry.
Also got Quidditch keeper Ron, think 3rd, then Young Hermione and my first Quidditch Hermione!

@Acumen @Craeft (not heard from u in while- hope all ok?) @Dogoutlaw @Ginnungagap @Herm10neG92 @Imaginatio @JulieJubz @LeFayeofAlbion @Osprey1 @Overflow4487 @WerewolfChaser @ZookiTabooki
Im really hoping we see an increase in the higher levels again before October Brill Event as we did the last one. It didnt happen for community day, but fingers crossed for an epic October! 😀
Oh forgot- i got Hagrid again too! Im sure it was him i forgot last time! 😂 i should not have said that! I should NOT have said that! Lol

@AuroraKadavra , @Dogoutlaw Awesome, looks likes both of you have had a great week. 😊

@Imaginatio awesome!! That first encounter is always the best!

Ps-Firenze departed on me again tonight! He hates me- I'm sure of it!! 😂

@JulieJubz cool! Do you do inktober and that 50,000 writing challenge? They’re the only ones I’ve heard about and they seem like a lot.
Also, I get what you mean with the dailies, but I’ve still ended up missing a day or two at times.
Well i got firenze showing up again today @Imaginatio & once again departed!! 🤦🏼♀️ you're right though- i won't give up!! Lol
