Description
The other day my friend and I watched Thor and she remarked that Loki is unique from other Marvel villains because while you can see in their eyes that they simply ooze pure evilness, Loki's eyes had this permanently mischievous look in them no matter what kind of nefarious act he was committing, almost as if he didn't really mean them to be evil but as petty tricks (I know killing Coulson is NOT mischievous). And this is almost a measure of skill because apparently Tom is such a good actor that he can simply compress the character of a person into his eyes. I mean I read somewhere that he could have just portray Loki as a two dimensional villain but he choose to look deeper instead. I threw in Captain Nicholls because he had a 360 character change in WarhorseSorry this became an essay in my defense I was busy cramming for law and history which simply ask for analytical thinking and I'm still sort of trapped in that mindset

It's probably a bad thing when I can recognize whose eyes they are from the thumbnail before being able to read the captions next to them...
Bad for me, great for you because they are so realistic! Great job!

I love when you can tell exactly who a person is just by looking at their eyes. That's the kind of actor I want to be.
This is gorgeous!!

This is amazing! I absolutely agree with everything you said. Tom's eyes always get to me whenever he's on screen. ^^

"almost as if he didn't really mean them to be evil but as petty tricks"
YouΒ΄re so right about that! I have no idea how he does that but heΒ΄s so good at showing that!
The way you drew the eyes is beautiful! And I really love how you can see another picture through the paper, the other one is looking good, too!<3

This is brilliant and so true in the comments, I often just watch his eyes... I don't know what it is, but it's spectacular.
Tom is a gifted man.

Ξ€hose eyes~! And I competely agree with what you said. He is a stellar actor, ith just one look he can show you his character's most inner thoughts, fears and insecurities. And that's just amazing acting.

I know; although he had quite a short screen time on warhorse his face was so expressive when facing his death that the numb feeling stayed with me throughout the whole movie.

FallenAngelItachi In reply to jyongyi [2012-05-24 11:48:26 +0000 UTC]
Oh yes! Exactly. It haunted me how he just looked at that momentwhen he knew he was dying...in fact, if you'd seen his interview he said Spilberg had said, imagine that you suddenly lose ten years of experience and you turn into a kid again.
