âNo, Lestat. Just because you just woke up it does not mean itâs âmorningâ.â
I think I had not drawn Lestat in AGES. With the help of @i-want-my-iwtv I though he should wear some fancy Gucci or Balenciaga, but Gucciâs new collection was more appropriate with my ink colours, so Gucci it is.
My reference was Martin Rolinski (as suggested by both @i-want-my-iwtv and @joffrey-barathe0n ), and damn, if it was real I would totally follow the BratPrince on Snapchat (or even better, Instagram). I think that deserves its own mini-comic!
Nicolas has come to visit Lestat and Armand after such a long long time apart⌠Photoshop + Pencils. I know Nicki will never return to the Vampire Chronicles but LET A MAN DREAM, OK????
Lestat is less than enthused and Armand probably has a thing for leather jackets that he is really trying to suppress.Â
âOne of the simplest ways to make the audience like a character is to show him liking other people. One of the easiest ways to make the audience care about a character is to show him caring about other people. We care about Harry Potter in no small part because he cares so much about his friends. Itâs impossible to imagine Harry seeing Hermione get hurt and feeling anything but horror and guilt, no matter how terrible a fight they might have had beforehand. Katniss is by design a more prickly and âdifficultâ protagonist than Harry is, or than Moss seems intended to be, but we care about her from the start because we see how deeply she loves her sister and her willingness to sacrifice herself to protect her. Bad writers, though, often make the mistake of thinking that you make a character likable by showing that other characters like him, and make the audience care about him by showing that other characters care about him. This tends to have exactly the opposite effect. At a certain point the reader starts to wonder whatâs so great about this guy that everyone is showering him with praise, and starts actively wanting to see him fail or be told off.â
Maybe someone told her and thatâs why Lestat is in love with every character in the VC who doesnât actively try to kill him.
Literally Anyone: Hello
Earlier-canon Lestat: *judges them* What a pleasure it must be for you to be in my presence.Â
