I’m very glad to have finally finished my waistcoat! Will write a blog post on it soon.
Update: Here’s the blog post!
(it’s all hand embroidered and hand sewn.)
Check out their blog post on it bc this is where the inspiration for the design came from:
Illustration for “the rape of the lock”, Aubrey Beardsley, 1897.
Indeed, I had that thought, too! The resemblance is uncanny…

I’m sure someone could write up a more elaborate comparison of these two, but I’m drained, can’t do it. Anyone is welcome to reblog/comment on this!
♛Surely you will agree that this Peter Griffin character looks nothing like me, but yes, he gets some credit for trying. His “smolder” needs quite a lot of work. And for the record, my shirts do not ripple in the wind like that, is he taking lessons from Fabio?

Your crisis doesn’t seem like that much of a crisis to us. The musician Sting is a fan, I’ve met with him and he’s a lovely person, delicious, too. The creators of this Family Guy show appear to be fans, they had another character in another series dress up as me on their American Dad show. Come to think of it, I, too, am an American Dad!
There seems to be a renewed interest all around with the news of my books being adapted into film, and with the latest novel from our ghostwriter due in a week’s time. Seems like good attention all around, and all I had to do was sit around and wait for it *grins* Louis wants me to add that I’ll take bad attention over no attention, and yes, that’s true, too. Attention is attention! I’ll take it.
What project are you doing on Louis’ book? I hope you’re tearing pages out and making them into origami figures, that would make better use of it… Alright, I’m not being serious… there is some truth in his book; he describes my physical beauty very accurately *smirks*.
Yes, drown in our stories, like a fine wine. We love you, too.
Bowie’s his brother from another mother! Lestat loves him to bits.
There’s definitely some David Bowie in Lestat (fashion, looks, attitude, musical prowess, etc!). Especially Jareth!Bowie.

There are a number of spooky tales from Louisiana, but one of the most enthralling is that of Manchac Swamp. First of all, Manchac is rumored to be haunted. It’s also rumoured to be the haunt of Rougarou, the Cajun werewolf. As well as that, it’s said to be haunted by Julia Brown, a once practicing voodoo priestess, who put a curse on the entire town the day she died. Legend says that on the day of her funeral in 1915, a deadly hurricane ripped through the town, destroying three villages and killing a number of people. A number of curious visitors to the swamp have reported hearing shrill screams from a disembodied woman.
^This could be the swamp from IWTV! It’s in Louisiana, it stretches to Lake
Pontchartrain.
“Claudia had wrapped Lestat’s body in a sheet before I would even touch it, and then, to my horror, she had sprinkled it over with the long-stemmed chrysanthemums. So it had a sweet, funereal smell as I lifted it last of all from the carriage. It was almost weightless, as limp as something made of knots and cords… I went deeper and deeper in with Lestat’s remains, though why, I did not know. And finally, when I could barely see the pale space of the road and the sky which was coming dangerously close to dawn, I let his body slip down out of my arms into the water. I stood there shaken, looking at the amorphous form of the white sheet beneath the slimy surface. The numbness which had protected me since the carriage left the Rue Royale threatened to lift and leave me flayed suddenly, staring, thinking: This is Lestat. This is all of transformation and mystery, dead, gone into eternal darkness.” – Louis de Pointe du Lac, Interview with the Vampire
So he’s thinking what we’re thinking?!

“On the plate, the tarts are menacing, a pastry spear jutting out of it. That is Poon’s design.“I want to create as much fear as possible on the plate,” she says.
“I keep reminding people these plates are made from bone china. It’s
called bone china because it’s bone, ground up. Everything is life and
death.”

Preview from “Dàimones – Prima Lux”, our vampire comic series. When we drew this panel we thought of IWTV movie scene in which the
Théâtre des Vampires was set on fire by Louis.
Chapters 1, 2, 3 and 4 available at amazon now.
