“The man of business gave a short laugh — laughter which was clearly directed at Mr Honeyfoot, yet Mr Norrell did not reprimand him either by look or word, and Mr Segundus wondered what sort of business it could be that Mr Norrell entrusted to this person. With his long hair as ragged as rain and as black as thunder, he would have looked quite at home upon a windswept moor, or lurking in some pitch-black alleyway, or perhaps in a novel by Mrs Radcliffe.” -Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, Susanna Clarke

As you can see I was not quite done, though this is more of a glorified sketch I’m happy with it.

I’ve been drawing horses so often I really did apply for a job at my local stables. Here’s to hoping. Also can you tell I love John Bauer.

Need I say more.

@doktor-plague can I offer you a Childermass in these trying times

[doktor-plague]

You most certainly can

? based on your previous posts, I thought you liked him?

He's such an amazing actor, plus he's gorgeous, so I love his Lestat, personally.

I liked the first season but I didn't like the second, I feel like Sam's Lestat fails to understand what made him such an interesting character in the books. I don't think he's a bad actor or that he's bad looking, I just think he's not a good fit.

Also the wig they had in the first season looked so much better than his real hair

[doktor-plague]

Why is hiring a French actor necessary? Lestat is 140 years old at the beginning of the series and would have sounded like he was from 18th-century Auvergne if we want to be accurate, not contemporary Paris, and then Rolin talked about loving that Sam created a voice that sounded kind of alien and like a mixture of French, British, American, all the places Lestat has been influenced by over the decades. If they had a lot of scenes actually IN French, then that would be different and they should have hired French actors for Lestat and probably Armand. But there aren't, so it's hardly a priority.

The level of critical acclaim Sam has gotten, on top of the fan reaction, is because his performance is pretty brilliant. i love book Lestat but they were never going exactly for the books with Lestat, Louis, Armand, or Claudia in this adaptation, and I love the actors they've cast.

Valid points, I personally don't like him

Hot take

Sam Reid is not a good Lestat

[trixarefordix]

ive only seen the tv show, does tom cruise do it better or do both suck?

[doktor-plague]

I'm comparing him exclusively to the book

Tom Cruise did not dress like a homeless Harry Styles which is already a plus

[doktor-plague]

Your hot take is indeed very hot, and incorrect, he is incredible.

Why not hire a french actor

Ahoy, mateys! Here’s my first original artwork of Captain Sabertooth! 🏴‍☠️

Here’s the reason why I drew him: as an American, I grew up loving fantastically fictional pirates such as Captain Hook, Jack Sparrow, Guybrush Threepwood, and even Monkey D. Luffy himself, but I never heard of Captain Sabertooth until now. I watched the movies both in live-action and animated on Prime Video and I found this character very interestingly entertaining as a very proud swashbuckler! 😃👍

As an illustrator who loves drawing characters (Character Designer), I love the design on this character as he looks very menacing yet mysterious. I also learn that he’s Norway’s most popular character, wow!! 🤯 😮 🤩 🤪 Coolio!!

And that’s why I drew him! This took me 3 weeks to finish this — I used pencil, acrylic paint and ink to color this portrait. 😅😅 Let me know what you guys think in comments below if you’re a fan of Captain Sabertooth! Ta-ta! 👋😘

I watched a kids movie from the 90s where one character asks "what are you?" And a second character responds "the reason cousins should marry"

[doktor-plague]

I just realized I wrote should instead of shouldn't

[doktor-plague]

The movie is full of pop culture references and 4th wall breaks but this scene nearly made me cry laughing
