Welcome to Hogwarts!

Harry's first train ride to Hogwarts and the Sorting ceremony in the Great Hall with its floating candles are two truly magical moments, which is why I chose to combine them.

Behind Harry are the four Hogwarts founders with their respective artifacts: Helga Hufflepuff with her cup, Godric Gryffindor with his sword, Salazar Slytherin with his ring and Rowena Ravenclaw with her diadem. Harry is sitting between Gryffindor and Slytherin, portraying a defining moment in his story as he has to decide between these two houses. Of course, Hedwig is watching Harry from above!

On the back, we get a glimpse into Harry's future, as there are important elements from all the novels/movies: the Philosopher's Stone, the Basilisk's tooth, the Grim, the Goblet of Fire, the Prophecy, the Half-Blood Prince's potions book, the Elder Wand and Nagini.

This is only the second MOC I've ever built, so I'm very much looking forward to your feedback to improve future builds. Thank you!
