Ok, here's the thing. I'm trying to draw Tom Riddle but I am having a huge huge problem! How did he look? It is fact that he had red eyes it is a fact that for some odd reason he was able to trick teachers that he was a normal person. So what do I do? Do i draw him evil like a maniac or do I draw him to look like an evil person who looks calm and reserved, where if you were to see him you wouldnt be able to guess that he is indeed evil.

Also his hair, I just cant remember if it was straight or wavy. When I think of him I think of the actor in CoS. But was that accurate? I dont know but I need some serious help, I have about four different versions of this guy already drawn out and I dont know which one is true to the book and which one is just a copy of what he looked like on the movie.

So please tell me what did he look like and how did he act on a normal basis. It would be nice if you would tell me how YOU think he looked because this is for a competition and I would like to score high by keeping him true to the book.
