[dream-this-nightmare-over]

i just know after watching first movie, that they are gatekeeping eva green's potential as milady for second movie. that woman was made to deliver slay explosion to this adaptation.

I finally watched Les Trois Mousquetaires: D'Artagnan, and why on earth did nobody ever tell me that we had a canon bisexual Porthos??? Like, my dear musketeer is bisexual now!! I love him so much.

explaining! my main goal was to make them different and colorful. everything else is secondary. i didn't really try to make them realistic, i didn't really try to make them historical. this is character design, right? so, the main thing is that everyone is readable and unique among others in their environment. if you don't confuse anyone, then i've made it, hehe!

i made them colorful because, firstly, i just like it that way, and secondly, it's customary to exaggerate book characters for illustrations so that the image is brighter and more recognizable. if i were drawing as if for a movie/series, i would have done it differently. but this is a book. and, as i like to say, am i studying to be a theater artist for nothing... 🤫

also i was laughing so hard at the song from bratz that i used for speedpaint because it was too funny to finish the work with. enjoy JHSJSHSHDH

a few words about each one, not in the order in the picture:

i had an idea to draw aramis a popular type of lovelock at that time - with a ribbon of his beloved's favorite color. this hairstyle was also worn together with pearl in the left ear. i learned about it from another artist, and then i read about it on the internet in more detail. and when i sketched him for the first time, i drew it exactly like that, but this time i already came to the idea that, unfortunately, he would hardly wear such a hairstyle in reality. in the first book he hides the woman's identity until the end, when everything has long been obvious to everyone 😭 so there would hardly be any hint in his appearance about his lady. fanfact, his heel is slightly higher than the others. aramis, the man you are 💅 and i also really ask you to take a closer look at aramis's hairstyle, i left a tiny detail there. it's right there in plain sight and it's hidden in the styling!!

porthos is associated with warm colors for me, because he's such a silly, but together with aramis and d'artagnan it turned into one spot. so i went with the second option - blue, because i really liked that he appeared in sky blue before d'artagnan when they galloped after the duke, even though it was already in the second book. he turned out so charming, wahaha.

i think olive is the perfect choice for athos in the first book. depressive, long-term drunkard, but a nobleman undercover. matching? also, i have a headcanon that athos is this much 🤏 shorter than d'artagnan and aramis. just because it's funny. and those two are about the same, because it was specified in the book that they have the same size

d'artagnan is simple, yellow-brown - a young provincial, even the collar does not really match the shirt. where will he get the money for a collar for each shirt... but he's the only one with a bright feather, the mc after all! if you look closely, the feathers of all the others do not stand out so much. that's how it was intended. btw, his shirt is a little yellowing, if you look closely, you can see it

i really like it when all the characters has their own little things. their own collars, their own way of wearing jackboots, their own little details of the sleeves. i drew simply, but put my soul into it. i tried to put a lot into the form, both in general and in the details, and although i could explain absolutely everything, i would like you to look closely at it yourself 💝

Magnificent Musketeer Tournament

King Louis XIII Poll 2 - Round 1

King Louis XIII - Freddie Fox The Three Musketeers 2011

He's just a sweetie who loves his wife, and is socially awkward. The friendship between him and d'Artagnan was unexpected but leant into the universality of being a young man, slightly out of your depths. Plus he's very pretty, wears lacy tights the whole time and the most wonderfully over the top period ensembles.

King Louis XIII - Louis Garrel Les Trois Mousquetaires: D'Artagnan 2023, Les Trois Mousquetaires: Milady 2023

I really appreciated that this was a King Louis who clearly had political acumen and was very aware of the tangled political web that he was trapped in!! Even if he was still pulled along with the whole diamond necklace scheme and eventually declaring war on the Protestants, he KNEW he was being played and he was frustrated by it!! This man is a king who does NOT walk backwards and he WILL make sure you know it!! Also love that the actor's name is also Louis I think that's fun

The complete list of entrants can be found here.

Additional Propaganda under the cut

Freddie Fox:

i just think hes neat. a surprisingly sweet and earnest version of the character/historical guy

he looks like he stepped out of a tresemme commercial and i love that for him

Louis Garrel:

[dream-this-nightmare-over]

loved loved the french adaptation

d'artagnan is such a babe loved him he is so cute and fearless

eva green as milady-no one can top that ever again

aramis in eyeliner speaking that sexy french - yes RIP me that hoe was death of me

porthos bi!!! cupcake muffin love him sm

i did find athos a bit too old but hey trust in french vision i guess (I cant see fandom falling for him the way we all collectively did for tom burke's verison, but he still has pretty much nailed that grumpiness and 'oh life why thee test me again' nonchalant vibe)

cant wait for milady and athos having a face-off in sequel

soundtrack music was amazing

cant wait for second movie!!!!

conclusion: def give it a try, gotta support national cinematography

Who here has seen the new 2023 French adaptation?

I haven’t yet and I need reports from the front!!!

[coquelicoq]

i just don't understand what milady has done that was so bad. sure she killed and she kidnapped, but who hasn't? sure she's a terrifying demon of vengeance, but she deserves it? good for her??? all these men treat her so reprehensibly and she's smart and talented and she should kill them all if she wants to. i support her.

Athos, Porthos et Aramis se rapprochèrent à l'instant les uns des autres, pendant que Jussac alignait ses soldats.

Ce seul moment suffit à d'Artagnan pour prendre son parti: c'était là un de ces événements qui décident de la vie d'un homme, c'était un choix à faire entre le roi et le cardinal ; ce choix fait, il fallait y persévérer.

DO YOU KNOW THIS CHARACTER?

[0039pf-third-blog-hooray]

there are 2 types of people…

it says there that aramis was almost crushed 😮‍💨

bonus:

i. repeat; hold still

ii. now you may, but be gentle; that’s better ⭐️

and silly little porthos, but i drew it almost without thinking about the design, just a quick sketch after his brilliant red-green look in the second book
