Ya gotta realize that I love getting Asks, no matter who they’re from (well I don’t like trolly asks but that goes w/o sayin’), when it’s from someone who seems like they’re not necessarily in our fandom, that’s fine, too. Not everyone has to be as obsessed with this to the level that I am ;} Any interest is good interest!
^fanart by@garama, who must have seen it live or the video of it, and has drawn fanart based on the musical, so he must have liked it! This is one of my all-time fave fanarts of the little family ❤ i just want to buy a whole graphic novel in this beautiful heartfelt style is that so much to ask *cries*
Re: Lestat the Musical, I am so sorry to say that I didn’t like it and I can’t even enjoy the videos of it *sobs* I vaguely remember one funny joke Gabrielle made about childbirth, something like that was the first of many bellyaches Lestat caused her… ? I don’t remember 😛
Some ppl loved Lestat the Musical, and more power to them! I am jealous of you. IDK if you saw the SF version or NYC version, live or video of it, but I saw the NYC version live and I partially blame the NYC producers for how bad it was for me, bc they apparently stripped out alot of the flair and gay stuff, maybe they were afraid it was pushing the envelope too far? But isn’t that what theatre is supposed to do? *sigh*
You can find ppl who enjoyed it, and other stuff about it, in my #Lestat the Musical tag.
Sadly, I mostly feel second-hand embarrassment for Lestat the Musical bc I made the mistake of inviting my cousin to go w/ me. She was not in the fandom, and she was uncomfortable the whole time *facepalm* Idk I thought she’d be into it, but the NYC version we saw was stripped so bare, and there was little to engage with. I can’t even listen to the soundtrack! It just brings me back to how disappointed I was in the bareness of the production, at the whole audience’s lack of enthusiasm… much cry, very sad.
So I have to be cautiously optimistic about the adaptation in the works and hope that they considered Lestat the Musical and can avoid its pitfalls.
Well Armand probably wouldn’t like you, if that makes you feel any better! I feel that he is essential to the series and he’s my best friend’s spirit animal so I have to defend him.
He has very specific reasons to have tension w/ Louis and Marius, you might not have gotten to that info yet 😉 Maybe you’ll change your mind about him when you get more of his background.
This is why I loved earlier canon so much more than the recent stuff, there were rich layers with characters like Armand. We first meet him in IWTV as the mysterious leader of the Theatre des Vampires, he’s unlike anyone else Louis has ever met and they are enthralled with eachother. Armand is as alluring as Lestat was to mortal!Louis, but in entirely different ways. The more we learn about Armand as we go on through canon, the more we find that he wasn’t simply a survivor of horrible crap that’s happened to him, he’s actively tried to improve his circumstances, he learns from experiences, he is a sponge for knowledge, he has major trust issues with alot of other characters, he’s got a great sense of humor but he’s also really bitter, he craves love but struggles with receiving it, just, ARMAND. SO MUCH MORE than meets the eye.
Anyway if you like Louis at all, ya gotta remember that Armand rescued him from being walled inside a coffin upside-down for eternity so… y’know… there’s that.
Keep in mind mortal!Louis suffered from claustrophobia, and still felt it as a vampire sometimes, so this would have been an even worse punishment for him.
Artist VS Art meme thingy. I saw this being quite popular at this summer and I jump into the bandwagon fashionably late.
Just like I pose in every photo, characters in my drawings – for the 99.8% of the time – are being presented from the ¾ point of view as well. What a educational meme.
My photo is actually in the middle of the first row.
The last one has transparent background so you can meme together with Lestat. Now that there’s the original screen cap I see how I didn’t even manage to catch the original expression goddammit
But I’m lazy so I’m not going to fix it, forgive me , THankyou & good night!
Can we just have this animated movie already? These look like stills from an animated movie and wE NEEDS IT
Hey, everyone! School and other things keep me busy, so I haven’t
been around for awhile, and probably will not be in near future.
I
want to wish you happy upcoming Halloween, and thank people who are
part of my life. That includes all of you guys I’ve met in online and
talked to, and received messages from.
Special thanks to VC fandom in the form of this illustration (*˘︶˘*).｡.:*♡
“Now it’s time to celebrate the truely “King of the VC-Illustrations” garama! None got the point right in drawings as he does – mixed up with great humour, a fabolous line art with its speaking characterizations just in the drewn lines and coloring. Surely, he should be supported for a new comic /grafic novel adaption and I would buy ever single on. Never I will quit follow this greatness of this lovely human he also is.”
Oh no, I’m in tears here, this is too sweet and kind and I’m no worthy and holy poop, I sure didn’t expect anything like this to be found from my tag
I love the VC fans, they’re so, so creative and open-minded people and I’ve been happy to read you guys’ RPs and view the new fanarts, gladly there have appeared more of it these past years…!
I was just about to go sleep, but then sketched these and didn’t dare to upload them but HERE YOU GO, I WILL DO THIS NOW, INSPIRED BY THIS pOST (and the cat gif i-want-my-IWTV reblogged)
