"A mass of filthy, matted hair hung to his elbows.  If eyes hadn't been shining out of the deep, dark sockets, he might have been a corpse.  The waxt skin was stretched so tightly over the bones of his face, it looked like a skull.  His yellow teeth were bared in a grin.  It was Sirius Black."

I completely messed up the neck.  It's absolutely horrid.  I managed to make the hair waxy looking, and plan to give the skin the same treatment, but am far too lazy to scan this for a third time.  I don't reckon he's thin enough about the face, either.  Perhaps I'll redo this whole thing one day.
