Who’s Who of the Murder Birds – Part 7

 

I’ll be doing a series of reveals of the Murder Birds!  The hows, wheres, and whens are coming.

Top Middle: Sean Pertwee – Macon

Bottom Left: Ben Daniels – Riose

Middle:  Dino Fetscher – Glawen

Bottom Right: Benedict Cumberbatch – Khan

Reminder – the character you see, though distinct to a particular show may not be the story used as we stole the ‘actor/character’ and took them out of the confines of the story.  

Note: This particular set showcases the leaders for this flock of Murder Birds.   Also it’s the one with the most hints of where they come from.

Who’s Who of the Murder Birds – Part 6

 

I’ll be doing a series of reveals of the Murder Birds!  The hows, wheres, and whens are coming.

Top Left: Tessa Thompson – Valkarie
Top Middle: Keanu Reeves – Wick

Circle: Hayley Atwell – Carter

Bottom Middle: Chris Pratt – Forester

Top Left Square: Bruce Willis – Korben
Top Right Square: Simon Pegg – Angel 
Bottom Left Square: Tom Cruise – Jack 
Bottom Right Square: Mila Jovovich – Leeloo

Reminder – the character you see, though distinct to a particular show may not be the story used as we stole the ‘actor/character’ and took them out of the confines of the story.  

Note: Probably have noticed that no one has last names, it’s just the single one they have either been given or took for themselves

Who’s Who of the Murder Birds – Part 5

 

I’ll be doing a series of reveals of the Murder Birds!  The hows, wheres, and whens are coming.

Top Left: Daisy Ridley – Rey
Top Middle (long): Michael Fassbender – Ghost
Top Right: Russell Crowe – Bud

Center: Pedro Pascal – Joel
Middle Right Top: Guy Pearce – X-Lee
Middle Right Bottom:  James McAvoy – Beast

Bottom Left: Pedro Pascal – Cisco 
Bottom Middle: Oscar Isaacs – Iago 
Bottom Right: Jamie Alexander – Sif

Reminder – the character you see, though distinct to a particular show may not be the story used as we stole the ‘actor/character’ and took them out of the confines of the story.  

Note: There is a reason that Pedro is on here twice as two different characters … not just because he’s a bastard who’s sneaking his way into storyline.  Let’s just say they were made to be identical.

Who’s Who of the Murder Birds – Part 4

 

I’ll be doing a series of reveals of the Murder Birds!  The hows, wheres, and whens are coming.

Top Right: Natasha Liu Bordizzo – Sabine
Top Middle (Circle): Clive Owen – Alton
Top Left: Leah Harvey – Salvor

Middle Right: George Eads – Lincoln
Middle Left: Idris Elba – Krall 
Middle Right: Val Kilmer – Montgomery

Bottom Right: Daniel MacPherson – Hugo

Reminder – the character you see, though distinct to a particular show may not be the story used as we stole the ‘actor/character’ and took them out of the confines of the story.  

Note: I normally don’t show case the fandom especially for the Murder Birds as it has no relevance to the storyline.   But Salvor & Hugo are from a show called Foundation.  There are also two other characters you’ll meet later also from that show.   It’s on Apple TV – Watch it you’ll enjoy it!  The main character is played by Lee Pace (our Cesare) and the one fighting him is Jared Harris (our Galileo) – you can see why we were attracted to it.

Sylum Advent 2024: Archived

 

All advent offerings have been archived!  So please feel free to check it out, and if want leave a note to the author or artist.

As stated last month, we’ll be slowly removing the stories/art from the blog, this is taking time.   

We will make updates as we go on which has been moved over.

Now – go enjoy the archive.   Check out some of the older works and let those know you’re enjoying them.  

After all some of us have been doing this for 20 years now (feels very old suddenly)

Sylum Advent 2024: Day Twenty Six


Sylum Aesthetic: Murder Birds – Part 7

Artist: Bj Jones

Artist Note: This series is going to take some explaining.  So read this before you click the read more.  A long time ago – before 2024 became the year from hell (Side note: taibhrigh we have 5 days).  I sent out a request to send in some of the most bad ass characters y’all could think of.  We got some great suggestions, plus we had a few on our own list.   The reason for this is for future storyline (at the moment the foundation of it is being laid down).  So these set of aesthetics and video will be showcasing these character – who got the nickname Murder Birds by me – which totally means that will be their nickname in Sylum.  Hints of their storyline and where they come from are in the Aesthetics

Okay now for the fun part – I’m not going to tell you who these characters are.  Some of them you will recognize, some you may not, some are very old school, some are very recent.   So for each aesthetic – I challenge you to see if you can name off the character if not the actor.  Now remember the character could be removed from the movie that is showcased (we just need the image) and they maybe exactly the character from the show.  *cackles evily*

Enjoy!
