VISION: 5/5

Dropping water balloons from, I like to think the Astronomy Tower, is a believable scenario for the Marauders.  Each of them embodies the personality I see in the books. It feels like tension before the action. Everyone is expecting a different outcome. I especially love the expression and body language of Remus.

ORIGINALITY: 4/5

James is cast as the leader, but his expression and body language are relaxed, as if Sirius, whose manic expression also shows dominance, is the mastermind. That's not a bad thing but the contrast is noticeable.

It's also highly realistic for Peter to be cowering, drawn inward rather than showing  blatant enthusiasm.

TECHNIQUE: 5/5

Blocking: Everything from the eye-lines to the background works to focus the eyes to the water balloons. While also directing the viewer to see the location as part of the moment.

Individual Personality: I get a clear read on all the Marauders' thoughts. I could probably add dialogue bubbles and it would make sense. You clearly have a passion and clear vision of Remus, James, Peter and Sirius.

Texture/Color: Your detailed bricks, wrinkles even the inflation of the rubber balloons add character and cohesion to the piece as a whole.

IMPACT: 5/5

For me, The Marauders represent four fraction of myself, impossible to meld together. This frame captures also their youthful innocence. It tells a story, each Marauder interacting with both the view and each other.  Creating the wonderful illusion that the viewer is a fifth Marauder.
