Raoul Silva + Outfits

[trideca-art]

Silva in a new outfit :p

[nfstssmm]

i just finished my favourite project yet, the iconic shirt Silva wears. As soon as i saw him on screen i HAD to have this shirt.

it isn’t an exact replica (ie. the pattern doesn’t match up in some places, the circle details are larger, etc) BUT ITS PRETTY CLOSE.

i drew out the pattern and had it printed onto 100% cotton fabric.

this is going to become a staple in my wardrobe.

Silva being a like a panther who dyed his fur partially gold to disguise himself as a tiger…

Animal-ing characters is my hobby now guys

So uhhhhh, I've been hyperfixating lately🤭 I may be a little bit in love with Tiago/Silva and Safin....💓😮‍💨💓

I may have made an oc for Safin🤫

I have prosopagnosia so drawing real people is always scary to me, but less so if they're on screen as basically a 2d image. I can't see faces at ALL in real time so I'm pretty proud that I've managed to get them anywhere near close.

Anti-Valentine's Week: Day 4

What's Anti-Valentine's Week? Because romance is celebrated for most of the year in Bond fandom, we wanted to take a week in February to celebrate non-romantic love! From February 8-14, share your headcanons, write a drabble, post a fanart or moodboard, or rec a creation that you love.

February 11: Love of country (or any other greater-than-self cause)

You might explore Bond's Scottish roots, the way he's embedded in an England-centric workplace, or the patriotism seemingly inherent in doing a job like Bond's.

You might also explore Q's dedication to science, one of the Six Squad's dedication to the team, Felix's loyalty to America as a CIA agent, or perhaps what was going through M's mind when she decided to trade Tiago Rodriguez to the Chinese in the name of "a peaceful transition."

guys..... tbis fic fully made me tear up at the end... like whaog

also the lore construction is FASCINATING and it like consciously develops complexity to the concept beyond just a straight (re)telling of a selkie tale

ten out of ten, would eat this fic

i don't think there was ever this possibility but do you think that if M acknowledged the pain she caused/apologized to silva in any way, he would have still gone through with his plan? I don't think he would ever stop being resentful of her but seeing how difficult it was for him to kill her, I can't see him still doing it if he believed she had regrets about the trade. i'm curious of what u think (this is excluding the plot of spectre that kinda implied he had to do it for blofeld or whatever)

this is a really interesting question because i always saw silva’s mission to get revenge as something that he knew would culminate in his death. i don’t think the plan was to ever survive. i don’t think he could’ve, to be quite honest, especially after spending so long to obsess over her demise.

however, he is not a monster (as much as he wants to act like one and be perceived as such). the beauty of his character is that truly it’s not like he’s aiming at world domination. he’s aiming at getting back at his mother/handler. so the idea of him stopping, if m ever showed remorse for what she did, is not too far fetched. i am not sure it would’ve changed anything. but it is clear he still harbors a sliver of hope for her to acknowledge what she did (think on your sins). he says it himself, “no remorse, just as i imagined”. of course he knows her too well, he loves her too much, to play himself on the hope of her ever changing. but maybe— maybe there’s a small part of him that hoped until the very end. the part that makes him fly off the handle when she calls him mr. silva and not his real name. he asks, demands, to be called tiago rodriguez. and yet she doesn’t give it to him.

i think ultimately that is what cements in silva the idea that there’s no other way to end this but with total annihilation.

would he have entertained another possibility? was the pain blinding but not absolute? we might never know. but i bet he asked himself the same thing.

I want to talk about Raoul Silva AKA my favourite Bond villain and one of my favourite villains in all of cinema and why that is;

Silva (or Tiago Rodriguez) is a character I find endlessly fascinating, his charming personality and demeanor lead to him being incredibly likable from the start and how he speaks to Bond in a way that's friendly and honest yet with still a hint of menace is almost hypnotic to watch on screen. Javier Bardem plays this role to perfection and I feel he doesn't get enough credit for this performance, he is both a camp delight and incredibly threatening when he needs to be and I love every second he's on screen.

His design is also perfect, I don't know how they found a look that screams 'Bond Villain' but this is it, the way his suit is the inverted colour scheme of Bond's is a neat detail and his dyed hair and eyebrows are subtley off putting with how wrong it somehow feels hinting at that he seems well put together there is something off with this man.

The way he acts as the perfect dark reflection to Bond is so interesting to me, sure there have been plenty of characters like that in the film series before Silva i.e Red Grant, Scaramanga and Alec Trevelyan. But none of them are as well utilized as Silva in my opinion with how both he and Bond were betrayed by M and left to die but in Silva's case he went through literal hell whereas Bond just got shot. It's not hard to imagine Bond going rogue on a revenge mission to kill M if he were put through the torture Silva was. Another element to this is how Silva employs Bond's own methods to attack MI6, he attempts to seduce the closest ally to his target, deliberately gets himself captured to infiltrate his target's base to kill them easier and uses their own tech against them. All trademark tactics Bond uses against his villains but turned on him truly making it feel like Silva is three steps ahead of everyone.

The tragedy of Silva is so well handled, he's someone you can't help but feel bad for while watching Skyfall. All he really wants is revenge on the woman who left him to die, a woman he saw as a maternal figure. Like, yeah I get it and I love how Bond himself seems to understand and respect Silva with moments where it seems like he understands his pain. He's one of the few antagonists Bond has gone up against where it feels like he really respects them and probably doesn't even really want to kill him. And the fact that at the end of the film Silva wins, he gets what he wants and tbh, I'm kind of glad. Not that I hate M but it's just nice that Silva gets some closure after a lifetime of being denied that.

James Bond, Alec Trevelyan, Tiago Rodriguez are 00 agents in the same time line and they CAN and WILL set fire to Q branch.

Please write a silly little fic to cure my depression. Thanks.

Hey anon!

Thank you for sending in this prompt. Unfortunately, I’m not really a big writer of Trevelyan or Silva, so I’m going to lob this over to the wider fandom because I know there are some masters of those characters who would love this prompt!

Sending you all my love - depression sucks so hard. ❤️

Tried to draw Raoul from memory because I’m finally drawing again and like I said drawing characters as their assigned animals so y’all got Anton as a cougar
