This conversation has been really interesting. Obviously, my impressions of 
the "Shrieking Shack Four" are very different from most.

Sirius: medium height, strong in a wiry sort of way, could bulk up into a 
lightweight boxer, but small-framed
Lupin: slightly taller than Sirius, lanky, larger-boned but looking just as 
underweight
Pettigrew: medium height or slightly below, round face, balding, still 
thick through the torso with a bit of a potbelly
Snape: tall, average build but broad-shouldered, long fingers, fit by 
default (because of diet and metabolism, not because he works at it; no 
definition, but not fat)
James? About 5'10", built like a gymnast

Isn't imagination great? <grin>
