#PERFECT JUST PERFECT

Re: to the nonnie who doesn’t want more movies. I have to agree partially because I feel that Kristen, Brad and Tom will always be the best. But I would be okay with some animation or CGI to make them look ten and 30 again.

Yes, you are preaching to the choir about Brad, Tom, and Kirsten *u* As for de-aging them, it worked for RDJ in Captain America Civil War.

[^Digging this up again bc it gets funnier to me every time I repost it so you can all DEAL WITH IT]

It could work for the dudes but I don’t think Kirsten could be de-aged that far. As much as I loved our dream team, I’m also excited about the idea of casting fresh ppl, even if it’s ppl who are lesser known; they won’t carry the baggage of other characters we’re already familiar with. Give some new ppl a chance ^____^

We could cast ppl who are closer to the ages they were meant to be in canon. Brad and Tom were 30 and the characters were 20-21 (Lestat) and 25 (Louis), there was some difficulty finding a 5 yo talented enough to play Claudia, so I wouldn’t mind if they aged her up to 10 or 11. If they cast a 5 yo who looks perfect but can’t act like the frustrated adult inside, it won’t really work. 

… or we could do it as an animated feature and then cast the original voices zomg… 

No matter what, I would want Kirsten, Brad, and Tom (and Stephen Rea plz!) brought in to work with their replacements, at least to give them a few pointers, bc they nailed it. 

As someone who studies jewellery and silversmithing (first year, so I’m no expert. yet :D) I think it’s unlikely to make one as detailed as Lestat’s and yet keep it at reasonable price. The design is very filigree indeed. But I’ll keep this in mind for next year’s workshop time, and let you know if I come up with something. (Also, in what way is yours fragile? Pewter generally is quite study.)

OMG A JEWELRY PERSON! [re: Lestat’s thumb ring] This was exactly what I was hoping for, that a jewelry person would see that post! I want to take hot jewelry classes so bad omg

(I can do coldworking w/ beads and wire, might try to sell those here at some point).

It could be done with moldmaking. You’d make a master ring with all the filligree detail (tbh idk how filligree is applied) and then cast copies of it in an affordable but durable metal. Maybe mine isn’t pewter, that’s what I thought it was, like those little figurines you get at Renaissance Faires… (like the dragon here) but if pewter is strong, then mine might not be pewter bc it has at least one hairline crack in it as you can seeee 😛

Yes, keep it in mind for next year’s workshop, message me privately, I could help come up w/ a design that might be easier to make. Like I said, I headcanon that Lestat has a lot of these, so it doesn’t need to be identical to the one in the movie ^______^

These are gorgeous and this is the VC merch we deserve.

^This Lestat doll was posted to AR’s FB page in response to her request for doll suggestions, but she hasn’t liked or commented on it as of this posting.

A custom Lestat doll head made by RedLorna [X] for a ball jointed doll customer, (who must have the body, bc there aren’t any pics of it that I can find). One of the best custom Lestat doll faces I’ve seen.

“Photoshoot Yorick. Doll belongs fox-a .
Thus. Minimi Tom Cruise as Lestat from “Interview with the Vampire.”
My third mejk for minimization. The most difficult and most interesting to me.”

Anne is so cute and sweet.

YES WE WANT ACTION FIGURES PLZ *grabby hands*

She wants “mass produced and readily available action figures …that might pass for Lestat, so that anyone could have one for a few bucks” !!! Anne, do you know how much Barbies cost these days? More than “a few bucks” but still, I like where she’s going with this.

There was a post that went around about a month ago re: VC action figures, here are some of the responses on it:
