I've Got Ankh-Morpork On My Mind

[tealin]

Sir Samuel Vimes and Wossname Mr. Carcer:



I was watching Stargate SG-1 the other day and had the epiphany: it's not Bruce Willis I see in my head when I try to concentrate on what Vimes looks like ... it's Richard Dean Anderson. Because he is, at least in that show ... Vimes – In – Spaaaaace!* Hence the resemblance. I'm not going to pretend I don't see it. There's a bit of wonkiness because I drew it at an angle (bad me) and the back of Vimes' head is cut off because that was the edge of the paper, but these are occupational hazards when you're a doodle at work.

*To be said like the 'Pigs in Space' intro on The Muppet Show.

I don't see him quite like that, but still, I love how angry he looks! I also love Carcer. You can just see him saying, "I know where your house is..." in that nice, friendly way of his. Until you get close enough to see the demons, that is.
The thing I can't reconcile with Vimes is that he is very short, plain, and balding. Somehow, maybe because he isn't described clearly in any book, it's hard to know exactly what he looks like.

He's short?
