Your style lends itself so well to the way you've laid out the story. The lack of hard edges reinforces the dreamy quality of the Harry's memories, and from that first 'panel' with the water ripples radiating outwards I love the way that ellipses recur to tie the whole piece together. There is such a sense of melancholy, so well reflected in the palette of blues you've employed, and the contrast between its depth and the amazing excitement and emotion of the RoR flight is perfectly balanced.

Beautiful.

I've no words. Nothing I can say could make this justice. I have no doubts who you are, anonymous artist, and if before I've loved and cherished your work, now there is no limit for my adoration.

The first image captures their canon characteristics perfectly, especially Draco. They are all amazing, but the last image truly breaks my heart. It's too early in the morning to be crying. I love your interpretation of the suit, and agree that it fits their relationship very well.

Oh my! This is so stunning, I can't stop looking at it. God, that last image of Harry is so beautiful it's making my eyes sting. *sniff*

So beautiful! I love how you drew their hands nearly touching each other and their faces on the broom...just beautiful. And the last one...Harry's expression...really sad.

Beautiful.
I loved how you used water and colors, and how it turned to be Harry's pensieve memories. The family photos say it all.

Wow. The last one with Harry was truly amazing. The additional pictures next to the bowl were lovely as well. This is a wonderful and true depiction of Harry's relationship with Draco in canon. It's perfect.

This is absolutely beautiful. The last picture is my favorite, sad and really heartbreaking.

Amazing work.

I loved it. Loved the composition, their facial expressions, the details you picked for representing various scenes. Wonderful!

Oh, oh, this is amazing. Just eye boggling. I LOVED the haughtiness of Draco in that first scene--and the scene where they ride the broomstick together was perfect. The way you didn't show Harry's eyes but just the curve of his smile, and Draco's pretty face as he clings on...and yet they're still nice clean masculine lines, simple and straightforward. I love that. And the final scene--you made Harry's wedding ring feel like a bind, constricting and prohibiting, somehow. That really struck me--I'm not sure if it was the progression of scenes before, or what, but it just leaped out in this incredible way. And I loved how you showed the edge of the pensieve too, with the runes...beautiful work. Absolutely unforgettable.

I absolutely loved this! You captured scenes from canon so well. I think my favorite panel would be the close-up of Draco's face on the broom with Harry. And the last panel... so heartbreaking! The family pictures and his ring really bring together that immense sadness. Not fair to be wibbling this early in the morning!

*gasp* That last... panel? With Harry looking into the pensieve. Ohhhhh! You've ripped my heart straight out of my chest. The artwork is completely gorgeous. Just... wow and oww and... beautiful.

This is so beautiful, I loved every inch of it. The image of them on the broomstick, Draco holding him so tightly... the emotions shine through so clearly that they just hit you in the chest. That really got me. And the final panel, agh! Heart wrenching, but so, so perfect. You did a wonderful job with the progression; it covers such a wide expanse of time, yet it's very fluid and smooth. I just can't get enough of looking at this piece. It's just stunning, perfect. I have to agree with [info]dracofiend; it's absolutely unforgettable.

Holy cow. Just ... wow.

That last panel, with Harry staring at the pensieve and the pictures of his family on the table? Ripped my heart out and stomped on it. So beautiful and sad; I had tears in my eyes. And I loved the panel where you could only see part of Harry's head and Draco's mouth so close to Harry's ear. I think that, more than anything, really lays out the context for the emotion Harry displays in the last panel.

The mixture of dreaminess in your technique and memory in your narrative is so successful. This is s beautiful artwork from a technical perspective, but it is also a deep and compelling insight into the nature of H/D. Well done!

The Fiendfyre scene is the most outstanding for me, full of emotion. The colouring suits it really well. Beautiful art.

Wow. Just wow. This is gorgeous - absolutely one of your best, if not the best. You've conveyed so much emotion, and using a pensieve for Cups is truly brilliant. <3

This is too good to comment on eloquently... I can't say anything except that it's just heartbreakingly beautiful.
