Here's a look at some of the other characters from the first arc of Ramsden...
Inuit NWMP scout Taliriktug. I think his name means "strong arm" unless i did the homework wrong. I based his look on young Charles Bronson mostly.
Amongst other things he should be useful for telling readers and other characters all about the culture and mythology.
Constable William Dunn... a naive farmboy type from New Brunswick, whose idealism and faith in his fellow man will be tested by the reality of the situation he will be thrust into.
I suppose for want of a better term he is Ramsden's sidekick.
Captain Drummond. I was going for a mix of Ray Winstone and Ian McShane with this guy.
I don't want to say much about him other than he is bit of a bastard.
And that's all for the time being.
Very nice ! Especially Captain Drummond. Have you ever read Jesuit Joe it might prove interesting reference.
ReplyDeleteCheers James!
ReplyDeleteNo i had never heard of Jesuit Joe actually. I googled it this morning tho and it looks fantastic.
Is Jesuit Joe an actual mountie tho? I ask because Wikipedia seems to imply that he is just some guy who steals a mountie uniform or something.
While googling that this morning i stumbled across Rodolphe's Trent series too, which also looks fantastic.
It's times like this i wish i could read french.
