Description Right, ah...this would be the albino guy from Cold Mountain. Why? Because he was my favorite character. Alright, because aside from Ruby and her dad, he was the only one worth watching when he got some screentime. There's something about skipping and humming while your torturing somebody that I just find...well, adorable is too strong a word, but funny works. No, not in real-life, dangit. But as a scene it was like "...That character's nuts!"

I also liked what I read about how they developed his character. All they knew from the book was that he was a young, pale guy. The director wanted to spice his character up by adding in the backflips and all, but then they were like "well, if he's so fit, why isn't he in the war?" and he had Charlie Hunnman research albinos and they were like "okay, this could work."

Dunno...just found it intrestin.

He's hard to draw since his eyes, hair, and beard are just too pale to look right in a black-and-white. The two hatless ones would be him being told he's not fit for service. Awww...he wants ta kill sumthin'.
Bottom one's from a little fic I was working on. No, it does not involve the pyschopath getting reformed by the love of a good woman or any tripe like that (already done that with my Toad!fic). It's about the psychopath being a psychopath and what made him that way so there. .


...why can't I just like characters I don't feel the need to defend?

I thought Bosie was funny and kind of cool until he killed Inman. Because Inman is my smex. XP

Really? Bosie was my favourite so I was upset when Inman killed him! But I knew it will happen, I knew he was gonna die xD

yeah, I reckoned it would end like that, too, even just the first time I saw Bosie in the movie. I was like "Oh God, I think Inman's going to be against this evil little bugger. Hmm, I wonder how It'll turn out." because he's just that sort of character. XD

Haha, I loved the book; Ruby is one of the most indirectly funniest character I've ever seen. I hated this little bastard though, hehe.

YES! And he rigs in another one!

I love Bosie. He's a wonderful character. I love villains and albinos, so why not mix in two great tastes that taste great together? (well, it still doesn't do anything for sympathetic albinos in films, but hey)

Great sketches.

KING OF KINGS!!

Heh. I love you even more now.

I was unaware than anyone else gave a flip about Bosie. Good to find someone else does! *sniff* Why do cool minor villians always die? Breaks mah young heart.

Exactly! And it wasn't his fault for being wicked. He was just embittered and misunderstood!
I liked the fact that Charlie Hunnam mentioned in an interview that he felt Bosie was so mean-spirited because of being an albino and being shunned in society for being such. How cute! He added dimensionality to the character!
I also love that Charlie did his research. He's the one who suggested to have Bosie bleed from the nose whenever he was agitated or exerting himself.
