Highlander - A Character Study

So, I never found a better screencap and time is running out. I would love for the image to be a bit clearer, but have cleaned it up as much as I could. The wonderful [livejournal.com profile] sidhex3 is to credit for the original, and apparently fought with the poor quality Season One DVDs to get it.

Enough with the stalling, here's my bad sense of humor at play...

Title: Highlander - A Character Study
Size: 560 x 425
Notes: For the [livejournal.com profile] cliche_bingo entry "character study"
Warnings: Slight slash undertones. My sense of humor.
Disclaimer: Neither the image nor the character is mine.

Hopefully the coding works...

i went looking for a better quality pic, but sadly, we don't get anymore scenes of duncan half-naked with his sword (some half-naked, but no sword). nicely done though! :D

Thank you! You were truly a lifesaver. I looked everywhere for caps and could not find any with a full body shot of him with a sword. Then I happened across your wonderful resource and hit the jackpot! Thanks again!

AHAHA THE LAST ONE, BB.

You make me want to hug you. And re-watch the first Methos ep. Where are my DVDs? *paws through shelf*

Hee! Thanks!

You should have seen the emails between [livejournal.com profile] threnodyjones and me about some of the suggestions. Wish I knew coding better to get some of them to work (like Amanda claiming the front of Methos gets the back and a debate between then agreeing to share). In the end, it was kept simple, which was probably for the best. *g*

Er, meant "Amanda gets the front *if* Methos gets the back". Then again, knowing Amanda, she'd probably claim the front of Methos as well....

He so totally is... *g*

ROTFLMAO! From the preview, I thought it would be all serious, like a collage of Duncan moments or something. This is much better!

Thanks! The snarky side kind of won out on this one. :)

Poor Highlander. Forever a fandom stuck on the cusp of being online, but without much in the way of images, because we didn't have the bandwidth for HQ back in the day. Not to mention TPTB did poor quality DVD copies so we can't fix it now. [pout]

they're releasing blu-ray's of season 1 this month....*crosses fingers* hopefully they've improved the quality to justify the effort. :)

It's a fandom TPTB didn't know what to do with. Everything was changing and they wanted to stay with the time, but really and truly didn't know how. *sigh* Still fun to play with though. *g*

There were several shows out around that time where TPTB were just figuring out fandom existed, much less what we do, and the poor dears were ever so confused.

Then add in the change in video prices that allowed for fans to buy TV shows by the season, then the change to DVD, and they were extremely confused by what was going on in the industry.

LOL, appropriate character study is appropriate.

Yeaaahhh, too bad about not having a better pic too. *pouts*

Thanks!

[livejournal.com profile] sidhex3 just posted some season 2 caps that are a bit higer quality, but I needed to get this in before the deadline. Besides, I'm kinda not minding the half-naked sword fondling... ;)
