Me when I learn something new about Lee and have a reason to yap about him
Sergio Leone / 1966
This is so accurate WHAT
Angel Eyes and Col. Douglas Mortimer. I watched For a Few Dollars More and immediately thought of this drawing trend.
Did them a few months ago for keychains and totally forgot about them😳
“Angel Eyes is mine.”
Another one
Here are some close-ups
gulp
the hand gesture...
Ways that Lee Van Cleef characters might have lost their fingertip (just guys I've seen and have ideas for):
Cudlip (Beyond the Law): Bit off by horse.
Ryan (Death Rides a Horse): cut off by Walcott for disobeying him, told it would be his trigger finger next time.
Mortimer (For a Few Dollars More): Old war wound. He usually refuses to explain it any more than that. (The full story is that he got a badly infected splinter and had it amputated. during the war. so you know. technically not a lie. He shares this with Manco apropos of nothing several months into their renewed partnership and Manco appropriately interprets it as a proposal and accepts by silently offering him his cigar. Which Mortimer takes even though he is actively smoking his pipe at this moment.)
Angel Eyes: Kills anyone who asks or acknowledges it in any way. (It was actually from a normal carpentry accident just like the real Lee Van Cleef.)
Hey! I post stuff here that I love and my favorite old men! Down bad for Lee Van Cleef.
