Revising the breeches for period relevance. I never realized how dorky our forefathers must have looked. Dorky and deadly- a sword will make a mess of you and they knew how to use them.

THE MEN OF SHERWOOD FOREST (Dir: Val Guest, 1954).
An early production from Hammer Films, The Men of Sherwood Forest is a low budget but spirited romp with Don Taylor as the legendary Robin Hood.
The simple plot involves Robin attempting to thwart an ambush attack on Richard the Lionheart on his return from the Crusades.
More famous for their Horror movies, Hammer also did a nice line in swashbucklers; the studio produced four Robin Hood movies, of which this was the first.
Although clearly working with a meagre budget, director Val Guest makes decent use of outdoor locales and the movie feels less studio bound than might be expected. It also benefits from being shot in colour and whilst the action is not as well staged as in a more lavish production, Guest generally elicits decent performances from his actors, not all of whom are perfectly cast.
Don Taylor makes for a slightly bland leading man. There is nothing essentially wrong with his performance and with an athletic build he certainly looks the part of Robin. However with an accent that is more Hollywood than Sherwood, Taylor lacks both the authenticity and charisma of earlier Robin Hoods such as Errol Flynn or Richard Todd. Likewise, Leonard Sachs is not ideally cast as The Sheriff of Nottingham, lacking both the authoritative air and any real sense of menace to make a truly memorable villain.
The best performances are to be found in the supporting cast. Maid Marian is inexplicably missing from The Men of Sherwood Forest; her replacement here is Lady Alys in a nice performance by Eileen Moore. A loyal ally to Robin, she holds her own with the best of the Merrie Men, but there is no romance between the two. Robin’s most significant relationship here is with Friar Tuck. As the wily man of the cloth cum con artist Reginald Beckwith gives a marvellous comic performance which is arguably the movie's highlight.
While The Men of Sherwood Forest is no masterpiece, as an example of the sort of boys own adventure that once filled matinees, it is invaluable. Cheap and cheerful maybe, but also engagingly innocent, old fashioned fun.

Exercising a guilty pleasure of mine in-between commissions. Designing snazzy outfits for my swashbuckling rogue: Captain Fix Infaustos
The first three being his common clothes. The last picture is with the ‘mayor/pimp’ coat he has stolen & a fancy dress option. ‘Cause I luv pretty stuff :3
When I’m bored/tired/stressed I sketch hairdo’s, mostly for my swashbuckling rogue. He needs more fancy hairstyles, like any respectable very girly looking half-elf should.
Good honest fun in between of work.
Random modern AU, with some made up professions and backgrounds. Mostly just an excuse to doodle some clothes…
