“Flowers were only of use to him to hide the sword”

I love you! Oh say it with paving stones! Is a slogan from the 1968 Paris protests and this is suppose to be for the Les mis across history week but I’m a bit late.

Grantaire takes flirting advise from revolutionary graffiti and enjolras is just a bit confused.

Other than the slogan I’ve had an attempt at 60s French clothes – Google images suggest turtle necks were in. And enjolras is carrying pamphlets as well as wearing a scarf to protect his face should he need to.

I will do a better quality version on the image when I have access to a scanner

welll…bbc are doing a musketeers series so this was slightly predictable

this is all courfeyrac’s fault and hes deffinitly the most into it, plus he canonically owns a sword.

enjolras quite likes the sentiment of the motto but would rather kill the king than be part of his guard (to which the corret response might be, you can be aramis then…sort of)

combeferre is just slightly bemused and a bit worried about how courfeyrac managed to get them all in costume.

Second set: Bahorel, Feuilly and Jehan

Bahorel is their first line of defense, mostly because he’s the best person for the job but at least partly because there is no way to stop him being out in front and going for it at all times. He is also not one to comprise on fashion for protests claiming his leather jacket is the right weight for if he needs to throw a punch and the waistcoat hides any body armour or cardboard he’s wearing under his clothes. Joly yells at his with reasonable regularity about remembering to put up his hankerchief or tear gas protector (he also has goggles, which i forgot to draw, as he tends to be the one shielding the others if that happens). Feuilly serves back up to both him and Courfeyrac and is responsible for pulling other people out of danger if they need it. He also designs and paints most of thier protest signs and flyers and is not entirely adverse to using one of those protest signs as a weapon if he needs to. he’s quite conservativly dressed (particularly in comparison to the other two in this set)  needing the anomility more than some of the others with a bit more social protection. Jehan is the secret weapon, being the best at providing a distraction and also providing the surprise of being able to hold his own most aptly if anyone sees through that. He’s another who likes to keeps his sense of ‘fashion’ so much so he sometimes gets forced to wear someone elses more nondiscript jacket over some of his crazier sweaters. Found of having different slogons on his face protection every week.

first set: here

I’m enjoying these, for this set Bahorel and Jehan are pretty heavily based of cosplayers I know. The waistcoat should be obvious! And jehan’s hair is based on luc’s jehan wig even if you can bearly see the plait cause its too scribbly. You can also see part of my table about metabolic heat gains next to him (sorry)

First set: Enjolras, Combeferre and Courfeyrac

Enjolras is leading of course, whether from the back or the front depends on the situation. He carries some fliers and such but tends to travel light. Hoodie deffinatily pulled up over the distinctive blond curls and directing everything. With the help of Combeferre who’s both his extra eyes and ears and positioned as such and serving as water and extra flier carrier and front line first aid person, knows when to fall back to be ‘person left for providing bail’ but doesn’t neccesserily like it. And, Courfeyrac bounces back and fore between them and everyone else and is always in about 20 places at once whether relaying messages or acting as emergency protection, he always seems to manage to be in the right place at the right time to be the glue holding the entire operation together.  

#I spy truth #freedom #justics #(and reasonably piced love…) #(I am glad there is a cutally a dw reference and not my mind making it up) (simulatedstars)

yep really there! shouldhave maybe put them on Courf’s background signs though, I feel like he’d get more of a kick out of it (and I just scriblled on his to finish before the end of the lecture)

this took ages I’m sorry, but your headcanon inspired this comic and it was really nice to recieve your request ask so here you are eventually.

I’ve included the pages cut up for readability (I hope)

also I changed my user name since my reblog last time so there’s a good indication of how long this took

Grantaire and Enjolras play scrabble together and Grantaire puts down ‘bar’ and Enjolras changes it to ‘barricade’

‘love’

‘noitulover’

“enjolras you can’t spell words backwards”

grantaire gets his own back by changing flag to flagon? as in ‘flagon of ale’

No no you should definitely do a scrabble comic.

I’m so sorry this is taking so long but I am doing it

mostly done pencils: (still haven’t got the first panel quite right)
