Thank you! I'm looking forward to seeing where you take Bond. In one of my earliest and longest forum roleplays, I had a character who inspired the Fleming to write the Bond books so I'm excited to see your portrayal.

And as I don't think anyone else has plans for the character I'm going to go ahead and already approve!

Fantastic! I'll have my first post up tomorrow I expect.

[@Half Pint] of course, if you wanted to make him book accurate, you would have used pictures of David Niven, who Fleming famously envisioned Bond to look like.

I hate to be a pedant but it's actually Hoagy Carmichael that Fleming envisioned him to look like! He's described as resembling him in Casino Royale. I always thought Oliver Reed was the great Bond actor that never was which is why I used him.
