Current mood:

I need a manipulative bastard...
I'm in desperate need of assistance, mostly because I suck at finding PBs and for this, I really need the perfect fit.

Basically, I want to create an account for Reineke Fuchs, for Reynard the Fox and whatever else he's called in various countries. The fox from the fables that makes life a pain for everyone else, especially wolves and lions. ;)

So, I need a PB that's expressive, because he's manipulative and a good actor. Definitely one that smiles a lot, grinning, smirking, all of that. It'd be a bonus if the hair had some fox-colored tint to it, reddish or whatever. Since I'm going a lot by the original German stuff, a white, caucasian guy seems most appropriate.

I'd want him to be good-looking, that kind of rugged charm someone who gets by by manipulating others needs to have. Definitely charismatic...

Additionally, if anyone knows whether anyone ever iconed pictures of foxes, that'd be useful, too. ;)

Thanks!

Found!

Thank you for all your help, gave me a better idea on what I'm looking for and now I've found it in the shape of Garrett Hedlund!

	When I think manipulative bastard I think John Glover in Smallville so he might work? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Definitely up the right alley, but I'm thinking a bit younger for what I have in mind. Maybe there are pictures of a younger him around... Thanks for the suggestion! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Ive looked for younger Glover for something else and found nada. But for this fox. What about Tom Hiddlestone? He played Loki in Thor and I have no idea if Loki had the entire movie plotted out or not. He has plenty of icons around IJ (Reply to this) (Thread)

Andrew Scott basically plays a similar character on Sherlock. He's got a great variety of expressions, though he borders on psychotic most of the time. He can be a bit more smiley as himself, though.

Benedict Cumberbatch plays a less psychotic, but equally manipulative character on the same show. He's quite smiley and charming in real life, and also naturally ginger.

Also seconding Tom Hiddleston.

	I'm considering Andrew Scott, but I have a similar problem like with Tom Hiddleston that I just see their characters. Thank you for your help though! I feel so ungrateful. ^^; (Reply to this) (Parent)
