Always keep your fangs sparkly clean! I commissioned this from the fabulous @lousysharkbutt as a gift for @gairid/ @vampchronfic, one of my fave fic writers in the VC fandom, for her birthday today! It’s
Gairid’s OC Brian Callahan, with Lestat de Lioncourt and Louis de Pointe du Lac.
I headcanon that the vampires don’t always bother with this sort of thing but when it’s been a really messy evening, as they get ready for bed, they might want to brush their fangs, too. Brian is a very close mortal friend of theirs, and he lives with them sometimes, and even though he knows what they are, seeing those fangs is always a little unnerving.
A++ to @lousysharkbutt for including in all these little details I asked for, including Brian’s Night Island tourist tank, Louis’ ripped up nightshirt, and his mom-style showercap, and Lestat wearing nothing bc reasons ❤ Their expressions are perfection and this is a wonderful artist to work with, fast turnaround and delivers more than requested, can’t recommend them highly enough ^______^
Thank you, thank you, thank you @i-want-my-iwtv and @louysharkbutt for this hilariously lovely gift! (The NIght Island tank is particularly funny b/c my hc for Brian is that Armand presses a lot of his suspicion button (andArmandseems to like scaring B). Naked Lestat and sleepy, neat yet raggedy Lous complete the joy! XOXOXOXO!
We need an AFFORDABLE set of VC dolls, for sure, and it would be great if they were like this one <333
EDIT/UPDATE: saint-rouge informs us that this BJD (ball jointed doll) “for anyone interested it is the sculpt ‘Infernale’ by DollIOS ! Another good vampire sculpt is the ‘Gluino — Vampire Alchemist’ by Soom.”
Thanks @saint-rouge ! 😀 I’m on mobile so I can’t easily link to those but anyone can reblog this and add the links and image(s) of the other doll and I’ll reblog it if I see it.
Peter Capaldi as Jonathan Harker, Daniel Day-Lewis as Dracula, Half Moon Theatre, Stepney,1984.
(Seen on the twitter of MrGodfrey.)
WOW SO MAYBE THIS IS (at least part of) THE REASON WHY David Geffen (and/or others in charge) wanted Daniel Day-Lewis to play Lestat in movie!IWTV.
Apparently Cruise was approached by Geffen through Creative Artists Agency head Michael Ovitz after leading contender Daniel Day-Lewis declined the part.
And you know what I can totes see DD-L being great as Lestat… but he probably felt like Been There Done That, having already played a vampire *cries* but I’ll console myself to the fact that he was also older and maybe too old for the role, too
PS. @gothiccharmschool, let me know when your time machine is up and running, we gotta see this show!
