Colon didn't reply. I wish Captain Vimes were here, he thought. He wouldn't have known what to do either, but he's got a much better vocabulary to be baffled in.

Terry Pratchett, Guards! Guards!

Just finished listening to Guards! Guards! again and the scene with the Watch asking for compensation really hit me this time around. Vetinari does his big speech about the absolute evil and darkness in humanity and then Fred Colon and Nobby Nobbs, who we know are not heroes, are not particularly nice people, are not, in short, “good” and they ask for barely any money and a new kettle and a dartboard and they worry that they’re asking for too much.

And Vimes just laughs and laughs at all the upper crust diplomats and Vetinari who can’t understand it. Can’t understand ten dollars a month raise. Can’t understand a kettle. Can’t understand a dart board.

I forgot how much I loved these books.

Sergeant Colon owed thirty years of happy marriage to the fact that Mrs Colon worked all day and Sergeant Colon worked all night. They communicated by means of notes. He got her tea ready before he left at night, she left his breakfast nice and hot in the oven in the mornings. They had three grown-up children, all born, Vimes had assumed, as a result of extremely persuasive handwriting.

A penny could drop through wet cement faster than it could drop for Fred Colon.

I'm knee deep in the Night Watch series for the first time and I'm in love with this ragtag bunch.

"We saw the fire--" Carrot began, running up. "Is it all over?"

"Mr. Vimes saved the day!" said Sergeant Colon excitedly. "Just went straight in and saved everyone, in the finest tradition of the Watch!"

"Fred?" said Vimes, wearily.

"Yessir?"

"Fred, the finest tradition of the Watch is having a quiet smoke somewhere out of the wind at three a.m. Let's not get carried away, eh?"

I never really noticed this before, but Colon and Vetinari have a hilarious dynamic. Person who is used to loops and loops of word traps vs person who wouldn't know a loophole on his shoes.

Just finished Guards! Guards! - Aka the first book in everyone’s favourite discworld series, if you’re to beleive the polls. I can see why it would be.

The skeches here are a bit rough, I know. But they’re sketches!

In the bottom corner of the second image I experimented a bit with Carrot’s hair - Everyone always draws it cut short, but wouldnt it be longer like the dwarves’?The bottom right hairdo is inspired by Aragorn from Lotr.

I tried to draw their profiles more caricature-ish than I usually do, since discworld feels very exaggerated in general. That is why, for example, Carrot is built like a barge and Vetinari has a waistline that would make victorian ladies cry tears of jelousy. I have a hard time making characters ugly in general, but I feel like i accidentally made Sybil look like a godess? Then again, the book does say ”Aincient men would’ve worshipped her”, so I suppose it’s fitting.

Also, the dragon looks like a horse. Sorry all dragon-lovers out there, they are very hard to draw.
