Joe Corroney (@joecorroney) on Facebook (post on July 19, 2014): "Isaacs wasn't specifically requested for the model reference for the character, I made that call... I needed a more realistic looking model reference for a jumping off point to fit my realistic style of the other characters. Tyber Zann looked like Malfoy to me so I just found some photo reference of that character that worked for my artwork with his face in the angle I needed at the time." (backup link)
