Thanks everyone! I'm dead chuffed at how it came out, for my first 'real' project.
I'm, of course, not counting the accidental sanding of a layer of skin as a negative.

ecl put together a great textblock for it, and you can order it from blurb. Here's the link to the order thread - check the back page for a coupon code to use.

Where did you get the "marble" paper for the inside front and back covers? That looks sooo cool. Also I have to say that the wand you made it totaly crazy looking. One of the coolest fan mades I have ever seen.

The marble pages i just Google imagined " marble paper" and looked and looked for a pattern that i liked. the pattern i used is a Berretti Florentine Marbled Paper - Red & Black Veined. but there are 1000´s if not more
The wand Thanks i really enjoyed making that, i have always said that i like to carve natural wood shapes then force the wood to do what i want it to do

Just bought your book from blurb. I see there have been no recent updates on this post since dec 2012. Is the blurb version still the "clean" version? Or will you be making available a "snapes/used " version with snapes notes, not just on that one page? Would love to see other books available on blurb, are there?? Like the Defense against the Dark Arts? Thanks

Hi! Thanks for buying the book. It is the clean version with no notes. I just figured that if someone wanted the notes they could write it in themselves for authenticity. I don't have plans to do another version. As for other books, I haven't really thought about it, although I think some people have been working on some on the forum. There is a thread somewhere about that. I'll try to look for it and link it here! I just don't have any time to work on something like a book anymore

Thanks! It was a fun project I took on years ago. I don't think the sale thread is on rpf anymore, but here's a link.

Thanks!
Looks like the photos got disconnected again. I'll go through my references and upload what I can to rpf directly so that won't happen again. Files move around all the time when they're hosted on imageshack, etc. I'll try to do that when I have time this weekend.
As for adding snape-type notes to the book, I only have a few references of what was seen on screen, but you could use those as a style guide. When I made one with the notes, most of it was pretty much gibberish, as a lot of the notes in the screen one seemed to be too; very hard to read, to almost illegible except for a few key words that stood out!
