igenlode: The pirate sloop 'Horizon' from "Treasures of the Indies" (Default)
I spent a happy evening attempting to grab some screen captures of Porthos and d'Artagnan to go with my new fic (since the "Twenty Years After" film conveniently provides footage of the two of them together at Bragelonne, as per my story, although in canon Porthos doesn't ever come there (and hence is implicitly seeing the house for the first time in my AU)... :-p)

This was a rather hit and miss operation, given the hefty shutter delay on screencaps: I did coincidentally grab a halfway decent image of Porthos, Raoul and d'Artagnan at Bragelonne without Athos in shot, although I was actually trying to get a usable picture of Porthos at the time! Low resolution footage )

So after that I went back to the scenes of d'Artagnan and Porthos together at Pierrefonds, and got quite a few decent shots of the two of them together which could potentially be used as an AO3 illustration, and some better vertical format close-ups of Porthos on his own for FFnet. Read more... )

I had forgotten how endearing the morning-after scene is! )

I now need to decide on (probably) one horizontal and one vertical image out of the sixteen. I'm tempted to add the fortuitous Raoul-in-frame pic as a 'happy ending' illustration, although it has to be said that it isn't objectively very good.
