I regularly forget my first introduction to Tim Curry in voice acting was as Slagar the masked anthro fox slave driver in Redwall animated series
Art of Slagar, a villain I find highly compelling. When starting to watch season 2 of Redwall for the first time, there was a temptation to sympathize with Slagar due to his tragic past but he truly does make himself an irredeemable bastard and I do honestly enjoy him as a villain for that. That being said, I decided to make this art based on the cycle of violence and hostility that exists in the Redwall universe and how Slagar's life seemed defined by it.

Thoughts on Slagar
I was talking with my lovely partner about Slagar the Cruel. He hasn't read the books, but he's absorbed enough from my ramblings and things to form his own thoughts (:)). Slagar always seems to be a fan favorite of those who only know just some about Redwall, which I think is great. Slagar is great (awful).
The conversation started with me saying "Do you remember Chickenhound/Slagar?"
He says "Of course. He's the one with the cool checkered mask right?"
"Yes he's the one with the mask. So, same dude [Chickenhound and Slagar (spoilers, haha)], right? I HATE Chickenhound, but I think Slagar is so great I love him."
So that's point one, I think it's kind of funny about me. Slagar is so fun and evil and camp, but I will just never ever forgive Chickenhound for being stupid and the worst.
Then, boyfriend had some really interesting thoughts that I'd like to share! Thoughts from a new audience, if you will.
"The checkered mask and cape is so cool because it completely conceals the very defining features of a fox, like the shape of the head and the bright orange color, but it does it by replacing it with such a striking pattern that it also erases the shape of him. But it’s so unique and so bold, even more so than a fox. He stands out so much yet is so mysterious and anonymous. Very fey." I said, "AND it conceals his broken face. So it replaces something he hates with something recognizably scary but also costumey. I don't know how to explain, but it’s powerful and monstrous because it’s so fun but at the same time he’s so cruel." Boyfriend says: "It does more than that, it makes him a new kind of beautiful. (I’m just projecting and romanticizing though it’s your book you know more.)"
I wanted to share because I thought this was so interesting! Thank you, goodbeasts all!
i am so absolutely not sorry
The only thing worth watching in Redwall is the villains
Yes, they are generically characterized as being evil for the sake of being evil, yes, the broad message of which species is good or evil is complete bullshit, but they are at least entertaining in their own right as opposed to most of the heroes who are bland as hell.
It's never directly stated who killed Friar Hugo, but considering Friar Hugo was the one who caught Chickenhound stealing then raised the alarm when he killed Brother Methuselah and also the mouse who ran out into the woods to try to stop the fox's band after the feast, my money is on a pissed-off Slagar.
