For Edward, it seems like there was a mix of descriptions because his eyes definitely weren't blue-green as a vampire. I recall them being described as liquid gold but they turn black when he hasn't fed in a while. Maybe the blue-green was when he was human? In which case it makes sense. His skin is definitely pale though

Love how the challenge was to draw the "perfect" teenage boy and you drew yourself haha

For Edward, you were given the description for when he was a human. Once he was changed, his eyes were first red and then honey-colored as he began drinking animal blood. His features were also sharpened and his skin paled.

Your reaction to drawing Frankenstein’s Creature was hilariously similar to Frankenstein’s reaction to creating The Creature in the first place.

How about a new twist to this: let someone pick a celebrity and have them describe that person, then paint them following the description, show the picture to someone else again and let them guess who this is. Would love to see the results of that experiment!

"You can see where I'm going with this" No Jazza, we cannot 🙃

I vaguely remember the book saying that Harry thought Umbridge looked like a toad, that would have been a very important thing to add to the description because the drawing you made of Umbridge is a little different to when I read the book. Still a amazing job they all looked great!!

Knew Sherlock almost instantly. He was always described as 'gaunt and eager' which is just such an odd pairing so I always remembered it. Watson always described Holmes so beautifully as if he were an angel

That’s interesting with the Frankenstein one. One thing they didn’t mention in the description they gave you (perhaps because it’s not said directly describing the monster) but Victor Frankenstein’s goal was to make an incredibly attractive person. Tall, long hair, bold features. So when the monster turned out horrific, it was in part the corrupted beauty (not just straight up hideousness) that made him particularly terrifying. Anyways, your monster was really neat! He wouldn’t have had a belly though, even being book accurate 😂

So, when he got to Edward, I saw his sketch and I immediately thought of Cedric Diggory from Harry Potter. They are the same actor so I guess I got some points for that, but I realized how similar the descriptions of Edward and Cedric are. Cedric is 17 years old and has brown hair. It said that Edward was described as soft I think, and Cedric is also kinda soft. Idk, I just realized that both of those roles are played by the same actor and they have some physical similarities.

Professor Umbridge was missing the tweed and it totally changed the era it felt like she was from. That lady looked more like a hobbit.

As soon as I read black hair, grey eyes and wearing a cloth cap, I instantly knew it had to be Sherlock. Jazza guessing Count Olaf and Ebenezor Scrooge made me start doubting myself a bit lmao

I was surprised I recognized Sherlock Holmes immediately from the description, since I've never read the books. Frankenstein's monster, while I never read that book either, makes more sense that I got it, because I've looked that up before. I thought Edward Cullen might by Percy Jackson, so it shows how much I didn't read either character's books.

That's going to be my new thing. Calling up random contacts, asking them an absurd question, saying "HA!!" and then hanging up without explanation.

Yeah I feel like for the movie they're like "they have to know he's a vampire. He should look vampirish " but the book is more like "he should believably be able to pass for a regular highschool student."

the first character really reminded me of the pigeon lady from home alone 2, the colour scheme is so similar too! I love the whole series, it's so creative and enjoyable to watch✨️

I've read Frankenstein recently for school, and I love how cursed your interpretation was the book description is way different from the pop culture, stitched together, with scars and neck bolts green zombie man. The monster's creator actually calls him beautiful

I am loving this series! It also makes me really curious how you would draw the Percy Jackson characters from their descriptions, so if you continue this series it would be really cool to see one (or more) of those.

I have long thought that it would be fascinating to see how people would illustrate Tolkein's work, uninfluenced by all the adaptations. This video is fun to see, even if it is with other well-known characters.

When you drew Edward and made the shorter parts of his hair darker, I- you can literally see in yourself next to your drawing, having the same haircut and since the hair is shorter and the skin is peaking through, short/buzzed hair appears lighter than longer hair, because it doesn’t throw shadows on itself.

To be honest, I studied Frankenstein to much during my studies and I immediately recognized the description. It is like the better-known passage of the book, so I had it when you said "black lips". Mary Shelley you're an horror Queen.

These descriptions are missing just a bit that would've really steered you in the right direction more. Like Frankenstein's monster is specifically beautiful with overblown proportions because Victor was trying to create a beautiful creature and thought he succeeded until the monster woke up and uncanny valley sunk in. And Edward is most definitely described as pale indeed, with gold/amber/black colored eyes depending on when he'd fed.

Honestly, my respect to Rob Pat for playing a character he hated lol

I love that you’re blindly drawing these characters from their book descriptions, they look awesome and exactly how similarly we’d imagine what they’d look like

I am far too pleased with myself for guessing Sherlock and Frankenstein out from their descriptions and the pictures Jazza drew, so well done there! You managed to not know where you were going and get the absolute correct vibe for these classic and oft-reinterpreted characters.

"You're not supposed to ___, but I was having so much fun that I just kept going" is some grade A wholesome. Starting the day off right

Ever notice how drawing from imagination brings gradient shading whereas drawing from a reference entails more random, naturally realistic shading?

i love that i immediately recognized the description of the creature the second i heard “pearly white teeth” and “yellow skin”, so to see ur unknowing drawing of the creature is so fun to me, i love how you went about it it’s fascinating

I remember reading that Edward's description was based on Henry Cavill in his teen years 🥰

This just turned into a challenge of how often jazza can mention his brushes in one video

it's the fact he makes the characters happy when most are stone faced

I think people get Edwards looks wrong. Twilight is written from Bellas perspective and she was madly in love with him. So Edwards description was very tainted by Bellas positive opinion of him.

I thought Sherlock right away and was so happy I got it right, I always pictured him nobler and less aged, but maybe it doesn't describe him like that.

I'm guessing the last one is Frankensteins monster, based on victorian era and disproportionate body (which could just mean a longer torso or arms compared to expectations); but he's described as incredibly beautiful, eerily so. So I can be way off the mark. Edit: woohoo I was right! hahaha. I think the part of unnatural beauty is missing from the description. He's supposed to give an uncanny valley sort of feel, even though he looks really good. Because Frankenstein wanted to create a "perfect" new lifeform, but it goes against the nature and ended up creating a monstrosity in a human shell. (I mean we can argue all day who the monster is in the books, but Adam looks the part)

Really captured the Holmes smile there. In the books is often described as "slightly unsettling to see him smile"

Green and pink is a lovely colour combination!

The Frankenstein one was very easy for me, mostly cause I recently rewatched a video on the original story. He's actually described as being generally fairly good looking, iirc, apart from you know, having yellowed skin and visible arteries and really creepy eyes. But his teeth and proportions are nice!

Confidentially guessed Umbridge, immediately guess Edward Cullen but then the more I thought about it the less I was convinced, had no idea with Frankenstein’s mister which confirms what Jazza was saying, knew it was Sherlock, and screamed that it was Jazza till the reveal.. haha this was fun I love this series!

I think your creators missed the mark on Edward. Like all the vampires in the Twilight series, Edward is described as being impossibly beautiful. At various points in the series, Bella compares him to the mythical Greek god Adonis. His skin is "like marble"-very pale, rock hard, ice cold, and sparkles in the sunlight.

As soon as you said “pink cardigan” I immediately thought of Umbridge. I love it! Great work!!! 😁

Knew sherlock right off the bat. Just from the "gaunt, eager face and bushy eyebrows" part. Ive read ALOT of sherlock holmes stories 🤣🤣 guessed Frankensteins monster pretty fast too. I was surprised when you drew the belly being so big though, that threw me off for a moment and I started to wonder if I was wrong but I kept going back to the thin black lips part and just knew it had to be the monster. As a bookworm I really enjoy watching these videos and think it would be cool if this became a longer series

Since you started doing these and she's been doing them for a while, I'd love to see you and Lavendertowne do a collab versus type video on drawing characters based on book descriptions. I think yall would work well together.

Your Energy is SO contagious, mate. Beautiful work

Thank you, Jazza; you are bringing back my interest in what I used to love doing when I was in high school and that is creating great artwork. Thanks for bringing my passion back and showing just how cool and awesome artwork can be!!!!

This video concept was originally done by lavendertowne a few years back. They're interesting.

part of it is that you drew pre-vamp edward, bc vamp edward IS pale and causes the uncanny-valley effect in humans bc of their general "otherness," "humans can tell that they're not" or whatever, and, particularly, vamps have either red eyes (human-eaters), black eyes (hungry), or gold/amber eyes (animal-eaters), human ed had the blue green, but that is from edward's (or Carlisle's??) own admission, bella never actually saw him and described him herself

Jazza started drawing handsome squidward for the perfect angular features, lol

i had an illustrated book of frankenstein in the fifth grade and the frankenstein’s monster in the book did indeed just look like an average tall guy with black lips.💀

As always everything came out looking amazing! For Edward, it looks like you got his human description from when he was 17 in 1918 :)

Can you do a video with book characters adding details about their personality? For example, Umbridge is described as "irritating" in the book, and Edward is "distant". You could do it by using descriptions of their tones: Edward does not actually smile but "chuckle" (that word literally comes up 25 times per page). It would be so fun to see how the personality affects the appearance :)

I’ve just taken up painting and I’ve always been somewhat artistic. I’ve learned so much from this video! Thank you for this!

In the Edward Cullen, The image with Robert Pattinson and the drawing, the drawing looks more like Jasper

I enjoy these sessions alot, the creative process and character....guessing.... is too fun. Great video and I'm not even at the halfway point yet.

I would love to see Jazza draw warrior cats based of either their book or wiki descriptions. Keep up the great work!

Watching this makes me realize how good of a drawer Jazza really is.

Wow! I really like your art style! As someone who's always drawn outside in, so to say, I love watching artists who start with the base colouring and work their way out. It's a really interesting technique... I'd love to try it! I think you're very talented!! But, whoever gave you the description for Edward missed the mark. They seem to be taking descriptions from when Edward was human and as a vampire. In the books Bella describes Edward (and the rest of the Cullens) as having pale white skin and golden eyes - with her descriptions for Edward's eyes adding more detail like liquid amber, and warm butterscotch. His eyes are green as a human, and he'd have a warmer skin tone too. As a vampire they are described as being "almost unnaturally white".... maybe your team thought those descriptors would make it too easy for you to guess who it was?. Still, it did a disservice to you and your version of Edward (Edward would never wear a letterman jacket)..... perhaps you could revisit Edward and do a second version that's more true to his vampire nature?

You painted the human Edward :P his looks before turning were described once in the series. Bella really wanted their kid to have his green eyes. But the after look was accurate in the movie lol

Hey Jazza! You'll probably never read this but I've been a big fan of yours since forever. I've been more of a silent watcher but I just wanted to acknowledge the hard work and effort you put behind your videos to make them entertaining for us. I really admire the fact that you stand by what you stand for, yanno. And just know that we support you and are always left amazed by your artistic abilities. :)

I got obsessed with Frankenstein after I read it in high school, and I got so excited to see how you drew him blindly from the book description ahhhhh

I love this! I am so envious of your talent. I could watch you draw all day. I love seeing the art come together! I can’t draw at all, I don’t have any talent.

Would love to see him try to draw Erik from “The Phantom of The Opera”!

Looked at the thumbnail and title and thought it was a new video from Lavendertowne at first X)

DUDE, i was a avid watcher of your channel about 4-5 years ago; So glad I came across your channel again!

I'm proud that I got Sherlock instantly, I knew I'd read that description before. You got the energy for sure!

EDWARD turns into The BATMAN❤️!

09:55 why am I seeing him draw handsome Squidward Edit: Handsome Squidward Cullen

I just found your channel recently and I just want to say thank you for something fun, with all the negativity on the internet this is a breath of fresh air

You are so talented! Thank you for sharing!

Ooh, I'd love to see you do some of Jane Austen's characters! I know the descriptions aren't always that detailed, but it'd still be cool. Dickens has some excellent descriptions of characters in his stories.

15:43 I thought for sure it was going to be Quasimodo from the Hunchback of Notre Dame

Love these videos Jazza has such a positive infectious energy

The first one, I immediately thought it was a Harry Potter character, especially when you said wizard. Second one, I knew right away it was Sherlock Holmes as soon as I saw the description of a tweed suit. Third one, without looking at the comments, I probably would have guessed Edward. I did not figure out the last two. This is my first time watching one of your videos and it was pretty cool. I am amazed by digital artists. It seems too complicated to me. I just like my paper and pencils and the simplicity of it.

I absolutely loved Frankenstein's creature, mostly because we got to draw him by the book for an English class back in my Sophomore year. As soon as I read his description, I immediately started losing my shit bouncing up and down with joy and excitement to see what Jazza would conjure up. I was crunched for time when I made mine, so I cut corners by depicting him wearing the cloak he finds, which actually helped me tremendously in getting a haunted look in his eyes by covering half his face with hair from the clock's hood being pulled up.

This is so much fun watching we need definitely more!

It would be so fun to see you draw the character of Artemis Fowl! Especially since most of them are Irish mythical creatures!

This is the first time I've watched Jazza in over a year. Me and my (super toxic) ex used to watch Jazza together and I finally was able to come back without feeling triggered. Jazza is just to amazing to forget. I love you, Jazza!! I missed you 💔

I loved seeing your interpretation of The Creature from Mary Shelley's _Frankenstein._ I knew who it was from the description straight away (since I'm an English instructor, and I default to _Frankenstein_ when I have to teach how to analyze a literary work), and it was a delight to see how befuddled you were when you put together this smiling strange character. Ahh, he looks like how he could've been had Victor spent one millisecond welcoming The Creature into the world rather than running out of the house to hide in the courtyard until morning... But then we wouldn't get the court case, framing for murder, and the chase through the Arctic, so....sacrifices, sacrifices. Great video!

this is my favorite art video i had so much fun guessing!!

Him: Seventeen year old boy My brain: EDWARD!!!!!!

As someone who mainly does digital it's so cool to see jazza digital paint! Digital painting illudes me so I'm low key taking notes

I needed this today it's super early here in America and I'm awake bc anxiety sucks jazz is the best medicine to try and calm down!! Edited to say I've read twilight a lot (millennial don't judge) and knew instantly it was Edward and what u drew was what I used to picture in my head until the movies came out ur amazing

Yes, after keeping it in watch later for so long, I clicked. Thank you!

Id like to admonish the team. They left out multiple key visual descriptors for both Umbridge and Edward. Also my mind kept jumping to Edward bc of the thumbnail, but i said "it cant be Edward, he doesn't have blue green eyes"

Did anyone briefly see handsome Squidward at 10:01?

When the phrase 'thin, eager face' immediately triggers a memory of reading those exact words in the book lol. Clearly it made an impact lol

Danm i love jazza's happines

Thanks! That was so much fun 😃 I picked Sherlock Holmes from the description, but I'm a big fan of reading the Arthur Conan Doyle stories. You're super talented - you obviously put a lot of work into honing your skills.

I knew the next to last one. There isn't many other choices. I really enjoy these "Painting characters EXACTLY as described in the book" videos. a lot. They are part drawing and a bit of trivia.

Great Video! *I love this artwork, it's so pretty and cool*

I came looking for your channel due to a couple two year old videos from Ace of Clay review of your boxes. The inky box captured me ! He says he didn't have a clue of what he was doing! He made digging in look fun and doable! Thanks for sending the boxes to him. Am interested in both the clay and ink ones. They seem like it would be fun to play with i them!

I love this series. When you said toad, black velvet bow and pink cardigan I knew it was umbridge. Also, I thought of Edward Cullen, Percy Jackson or maybe Jason grace for the Edward one, I don’t know why I guess it’s just my own fan girl instincts. You should definitely do some Percy Jackson characters. I mean, the adaptations (movies) were the least accurate you can be, and the show is not focusing on appearance being accurate, whereas the plot and the essence and personality of characters. Even if there’s pretty accurate fan art, it would be really cool to see your way of doing some characters, since some changes are made in fan art. I definitely want to see that

Man I was so stoked when I read the description for Frankenstein's creature (I will not call him a monster), I've read the book twice so I knew it immediately when seeing the gigantic height and yellow skin, and the Victorian setting just cemented it haha

Can I just say... I found your channel today and you're a fantastic artist to watch! Love these types of vids my friend. The yellow skinned monster immediately made me think of Total Warhammer 3!

I really liked this video! You draw amazingly!

You should do this again with more cartoon/anime character descriptions, I feel like when its actors it's harder to disconnect the book description from how the actor looks, yano? Still love this idea though!!❤❤

The lavendertowne inspired thumbnail really sells it

This… is absolutely amazing!!! I remember getting a tablet just like this at only 13 but was easy to master and fun to use

I thought Gaston... not Frankenstein's Monster, thinking maybe they just cropped his hair in the movie adaptation. But it was interesting to see you basically equate gigantic = massive beer belly 😆

This gives me happiness somehow, because when we imagine them via description, in my mind they all have this voice and face and what not. Now im seeing them come to life
