VISUAL REFERENCE

OK SO because Miles' appearance is actually pretty distinctive and unusual, I thought I'd post some visual refs for what he actually looks like. He doesn't actually look like his PB, but it's damn near impossible to find someone who actually looks like Miles and wow can I say actually more. Iddo Goldberg's about as close as I can get to someone who looks like Miles, but the expression set is pretty much dead-on.

Miles is most often described in canon as a man of a height of 4'9 and a crooked spine, thanks to his brittle bones, though he has a head that looks like it belongs on a man of 6' and a rather short neck; his face is prematurely lined with "pain lines around his mouth and laugh lines around his eyes" and makes his age semi-indistinguishable, somewhere between 20 and 40.

Here is some pretty excellent fanart of Miles (and company) to give a visual reference, because this artist draws Miles the closest to how he's described in the books the most I've seen. All art is by [tumblr.com profile] maria_ruta.


Baby Miles with Ivan & Gregor


Miles & Bel


MORE Miles & Bel


MILES HUGGING HIS DAD KILLS ME EVERY TIME


the artist's caption for this was "there is nothing worse than when your paranoia turns out to be perfectly working intuition"


Miles (right) & his clone brother Mark (left)


the bottom three sketches are Miles -- I really like this artist's take on his body type


this will forever be my favorite picture of Miles, Ivan and Gregor
