My DeviantArt may be gone but I’m still recycling it anyways. Please welcome back the long dead: 

JAMES MCAVOY APPRECIATION POST [ Deviant Art Migration - 6]

[Reason and History] Original post date: 21/04/2019

From Glasgow to Narnia. From Atonement to X-men. From Macbeth to Split.

Every year on 21 April, I celebrate the life of some people who share the same special day as me, and I do a painting of them. After some light research, I decided to do one for the Irish actor, James McAvoy for his very diverse set of roles in his career.

He was Mr Tumnus from the beloved The Chronicles of Narnia. He then took the role of Young Charles Xavier (which was the best take ever) and later took another superhero role, as Kevin Wendell Crumb in M. Night Shyamalan’s Split. (which was quite questionable in terms of accuracy but still good performance on his end.) 

He was also in my personal favorite, 2015’s Victor Frankenstein as the mad doctor himself. Now in his late 30s, It looks like James will not be stopping anytime soon. Two years after the original date of the post, it turns out I was right.

Despite how last minute it was, I think it turned out ok. Added more layers including the Cerebro entrance blue X sign. I know all this drawing and stuff won’t get that much attention but, I thought of filling some gaps with more visuals rather than text and yes. This is just recycling but, Alea iacta est! Happy Birthday to James McAvoy and to all you April born people out there!

“Those with the greatest power… protect those without. That’s my message to the world.” - Charles Xavier.
