Expelliarmus!

[Tomsche]

Based on the second movie of the Harry Potter franchise, I just wanted to build a MOC for the duelling club.

Contrary to the mainstream, Professor Lockhart was always one of the characters I liked more in the films and especcially the books (shame they didn`t bring him back in the later movies), and of all the movies the second one remains the one I like the most.

So I went out to build the duelling club scene where Snape and Gilderoy face off, and the Defense against Dark Arts teacher is quickly disarmed by the Potions master.

I wanted the scene to represent the blast from Snape`s wand, disarming Gilderoy rather forcefully, while the students from Slitherin and Gryffindor watched. I opted for the older `yellow skin` on the minifigures (okay, bar Snape, he is the glow in the dark version).

I also tried to make the rug on the table look a bit like the crescent patterned one on the table in the movies.

I`m rather happy with how it turned out, and this is one of the two Harry Potter moc`s I`m building for the conventions season this summer, hope you like it!

I'm not sure figures based on licensed brands work as well with yellow-skin. I would have opted for flesh-skin personally. The rest of the build is great though.

I personally have no issue with the yellow skin. I'm glad you went with it.

Aside from that, the build itself is nice, and looks sturdy. The design on the table is solid, as well. I like all of the children watching the duel. Considering the beam, at first sight I thought "Expellilegus!" I hope you have a lot of fun at the conventions.

Nice job!

In defense, the HP line started as yellow.

Awesome little build, always fun seeing HP make a return to the first page!

While I prefer the nougat skin tones; almost all of my Harry Potter sets are from the first two years where the yellow skin tone was used. So I am digging the nostalgic vibe I'm getting from the yellow skin figures! (I have a lot of them included here to or at least similar variants).
