Results Day #5 - King Richard Armitage Fan-Art - GizTheGunslinger

The King Richard Armitage Website (KRA) is highlighting the artwork and the artists who contributed to the Fan-Art Event in October.

Today the KRA artist in the spotlight is:

GizTheGunslinger

Below is just a small detail of her amazing creation for KRA:

Taking our inspiration from GizTheGunslinger's KRA artwork we wonder what the best dressed king or knight was wearing for battle or ceremony in the days of Richard III?

Below are a few examples of the armour fashion of the day:

It wouldn't be very difficult for us to imagine how well Richard Armitage would look in his medieval armour as Richard III.

Please support Richard Armitage’s effort by signing the petition and encouraging potential financiers and production investors to support the “Richard III” project.

What a great idea - an armour fashion show for our King Richard. Your selection is great and I now really can imagine him in his royal role and armour, thanks to you and Guy of Gisborne ;o)

Hi Fabo, I started to know Giz as a fanvidder, few months ago. My favorites are the 40th birthday celebration and the one on Captain America. She has a special talent in putting both sparks and feelings in her videos.

Later, I discovered she is an artist and an excellent one. This Richard III is amazing, fierce and mesmerizing. I'm not an artist, but I perceive a special allure in her drawings of Mr. A, the actor. Don't know why. Just my impression.

@LadyCassia Hello! I also know Giz first as a fanvidder and agree with you that as an artist she captures Armitage's personality and his characters in a special way. I think you're right about her "special allure" for Mr A :) Thank you for your lovely comments.

Hannibal: Season 3 Review by Eric Goldman Love crime -IGN

And wow, was this version of Red Dragon awesome. Yes, it streamlined some aspects – we didn’t get any of the Dolarhyde flashbacks (one tiny glimpse aside) and Will’s role was altered, to some extent. But this was creepy, intense storytelling through and through, with Richard Armitage bringing just the right mix of scary and semi-sympathetic as Francis Dolarhyde, a murderous, delusional monster who was at war with the potentially loving man somewhere deep inside him – a war amplified as Dolarhyde fell for the blind Reba (a strong Rutina Wesley), even as “the Dragon” was coming to life within him, compelling him to kill.

" I GOT A THORIN STAREEEEEEEEEEEE. Then Sebastian walked over and whispered in his ear and literally it was like night and day. His face went from “imma kill" to “Flowers and tea, yay let’s go play" And I got up and walked over to him. He said (in the mst adorable accent on the planet) Hello there, I’m Richard.""

North & South and Spooks (MI-5) Win Top Spots in BBC America's Top British Drama's of All Time

North & South wins the #2 spot in BBC America Anglophenia Readers Poll of the 10 Best British TV Series of All Time.

I hope BBC America and PBS (US Public TV) will look at the results of this poll and will broadcast this wonderful series in the U.S. It aired only once in only select PBS stations back in 2005, I know because I was one of the lucky ones that saw it then. I don't recall that it ever aired on BBC America.

Also great news that Spooks or MI-5 in the U.S., won the #7 spot in the reader's poll. Another series that has never been allowed the time to find it's American audience on PBS or BBC America.

The time is now PBS and BBC America for US audiences to see these two great British programs.

For the results of the Anglophenia/BBC America poll click on the link below:

"The Hobbit" Question of the Month: Sexy Dwarves or Bearded Dwarves?

Unless you've been under a rock lately you know that Peter Jackson and "The Hobbit" group have been very busy making casting announcements about the film. Because of the casting of several very attractive actors (talented actors all) for the Middle-earth dwarves (Richard Armitage, Aidan Turner, and others) there's quite an interesting discussion developing between Tolkien purists and fans of the actors in question, or just movie fans in general about whether the look of the Middle-earth dwarves should remain true to the book, or maybe changed to provide some eye candy for us ladies.

There's a marvelous and very funny article all about this issue on www.theonering.net by Maegwen. You can read the entire article by clicking HERE.

I was just inspired by the article and RA Central (on Twitter) to post the unscientific poll below. So how about it world, do we want sexy dwarves in Middle-earth or hairy, long-bearded, dwarves?
