The shirt! The waistcoat! The pose! Can I have a t-shirt with FIRE UP THE HARPSICHORD, BARTHOLOMEW? I promise it'll be printed in the fanciest of scripts!

Isn’t it rather dazzling for a concept photo? Rakish, even.

If the background were a bit less less obviously twenty-first-century living room, I'd say you could share it as a teaser!

(You work with the mantelpiece you have, not with the tumbledown manor house you wish you had . . .)

No one wanted that manor house. Some people just have friends willing to throw a couple thousand pounds at its continued not sinking into the swamp.

...don't lean on the mantel maybe though.

It deserves nothing less!

*hugs* Is your waistcoat grey or green, or somewhere between the two? I can't tell with this screen.

Also every time you post a photo (Regency dandy, cord-clad boffin, swirling coat detective) I just want to write fanfiction for your Doctor. *deep blush*

Aw!

*hugs* Just had to say that.

It's sort of pewter-colored; there's actually a sheen on the material that is not really visible in this photo. I plan to get better ones by sunlight sometime.

[ashlyme]

Ahh! I couldn't even see that pattern properly until I saw the picture on my computer, and it looks like a dark sagey-green here. This screen needs a wipedown.

I should think so! An ancient and versatile metal.
