I already expand the search on all collections, not just dover. I would say that the pics are combined from two or more pictures.
The link with the larger extreme incantations is great, thanks.

Sorry to hear that. But you can learn from those disasters. Do always back-ups on CD or USB-Stick.

Hi Guys,
I love the replicas you do, i think theyre brilliant. Do you ever have to draw them freehand somehow, or guess for things you cant find  Undecided  Huh

Yes, thank-you,  Wink
It just fascinates me how you all manage to do it, i`d never in a million years attempt to even try. All the hours of work you put in it must be very difficult but from what i`ve seen of the outcome its very well worth it and i can see why you make more.  Grin
Sue, xxxxxxx

Very bad things happened, the book binder refused my order. First he doesn't respond to my mails, than he said from week to week the book will be ready and then nothing  Angry
Fortunately I got my money back. So I have to find a new book binder. But the project is still actual and in my mind. As soon as I have something to show you will all see. I promise Cheesy Please be patient.

I am looking for these signs:

Are they a font or something or maybe custom made from the prop master, any idea?

Hi Marcuss

Are you doing OWLS? I had to draw mine by hand. Some can be made up using a series of letters but is just easier to draw them Smiley

The symbols are also used on the Quidditch World Cup Program and on the surface of the Alethiometer (from Northern Lights). I wonder if they are found items or both movies had the same prop master.

Hi,

Yes, Maybe it's better to make it yourself, but you could try to go here : http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/p22/koch-signs/ There is lots of signs used on Harry Potter props.

Best Regards,

Thomas.

Hi Marcuss Grin

That is AMAZING Cheesy Where did you find all the references and clipart to do the whole book?
How many pages have you completed?

Some of them came from the charmed magazin (available online), others I found online and some I bought.
So I collect the pages and assembled them.
The book is post-bound, can hold 500 pages and I am planning to fill it all.  Grin
Now there are around 90 pages in the book but thats just the beginning.

I had this project in my mind for a long time and it was like an rollercoaster, up and down. I started then stopped and started again and so on. But I am confident to finish my work now.

Yes, it is in the movie. It's when Snape takes the map from Harry.

The reproduction looks very good, but I always thought that the two sides should line up properly. I only thought that they appear offset because the map isn't flat.

Beautiful work though, as always by Monsters_05.
