Which author has the best studio?
>>7966706
Douggie Hartland's writing office is pretty nuts in a brilliant, eclectic sort of way. Not that it comes as any surprise really.
me lol
>>7966706
Saw a couple pics of Ronaldo Reinhardt's a little while ago. Was sort of sparse and tasteful and minimalist in a really appealing way
Reggie Chrysler's studio looks pretty cool, if a bit nerdy. There's a lot of limited edition figs etc
Jennifer Kissin has a pretty neat setup iirc. The whole room is like blues and purples
i like the look of clarissa vikander's, but id probably get irritated/claustrophobic after a while
kaspar arturo's looks like some kind of creepy medieval dungeon which is probably a pretty accurate reflection of his own character/writing t b h. i do like it tho
I was actually reading some lit zine a little while ago about this. Rocky Davidson's stood out to me the most. Everything is very precariously placed and there's all these weird theater props strewn about.
>>7966706
What brand cigarettes are those?
dennis brawner had a ton of old movie posters completely plastered over the walls. there was only like one bookshelf with like 5 books on it lol. weird dude
didnt roman hammersmith have some seriously bad hoarding problems everywhere in his house except his writing room? it was like notoriously disgusting everywhere and was a total fire hazard, but his studio was pristine. i think thats pretty funny
Tammy Rylance's was furnished like a baroque sitting room or some shit. i love that a lot. apparently when she got burned out/writers block shed get up and play for a bit on her harpsichord to clear her head and then go straight back to writing. she was such a valuable person in literature :( rip
michael dubois was some kind of obsessively anal germaphobe who couldnt write unless he was completely sure he was in clean, sanitray, sterile surroundings. most of his studio is like, stainless steel/chrome to make for easier cleaning. weird but cool, google if u wanna see i guess
>>7966706
lucien butler had his whole house styled in that 60s/70s mod hip aesthetic, which i guess reflecting his writing pretty well.
>>7966706
Hester Dunmore was obsessed with Shakespeare and had like 10 bookshelves, each one containing the same play printed in different editions or academic pieces pertaining to the play in question. I like that concept
brian telmann's looks exactly like op's pic, but i just like his more because he's brian telmann lol.
abbi roberts has a ton of commissioned art portraits of her characters on her wall. a little self indulgent, but i like it
he really loves hitler, doesn't he?

tabitha barkley, who i used to be really into, had a ton of plants - plotted and hanging - everywhere in hers. pretty beautiful setting, probably great to write in

Philip K. Dick was known for taking a cocktail of amphetamines and psychedelics and then locking himself in his study and writing an entire book while high as balls. He would be in there for up to 36 hours, I believe. I've always wondered what his study looked like after one of those marathons. Must have been a fucking mess. Where did he use the bathroom?
>>7967578
Have ya read him? He's pro-life and anti-imigration.
>>7967586
Bullshit. He took amphetamines. Sometimes. And yes, he would turn out up to six classic novels a year. He died of a brain hemorrhage, though he had quit for some years. He only did pyschedelics once or twice in his life.
>>7967586
I love amphetamines. They make me both more productive and much happier.
The world is brighter. I'm more enthusiastic. It's great. I get more done in a day on 10mg of Adderal than in a week without.

Beckett's bookshelves in Paris

Nigella Lawson actually has quite patrician tastes.
>>7969390
But undoubtedly, the greatest library of all is this one.
Coincidentally, I was just looking at pictures of Eco's library last thursday. Look at this, nigga had rare medieval editions in his living room
garretcore for life
>>7969447
Eco is pretty renowned for his book collection. You should read "This is Not the End of the Book", a conversation with Jean-Claude Carriere in which he discusses it. Pretty interesting, and a very fast read.

He had like 16,000 books between the Berghof and Reich Chancellery but he never had them inventoried so not much is known about his private collection. I think US soldiers ended up finding a few thousand books of his after the water.

His Hitler biography in My Struggle 6 is actually pretty entertaining to read. He criticizes a lot of earlier works on Hitler for being too judgemental of the young Hitler. No idea why he spent 400 pages saying that, but it was interesting.

belle is 6 feet since disney gyals are model tier them, so anon was quite write with her being twice a book in your perspectivo
>>7970173
That's obviously not true. Even if you added a zero by mistake it seems like too much. 20k books would be 265 books per year from the age of 10.
The guy from The Complete Review "reads" this much, but he doesn't write books and teach courses and all that shit.
>>7972313
>belle is 6 feet since disney gyals are model tier
>assuming
There is no way they are that tall. They are all shorter than their male counterparts and most guys are not over six feet tall. If she were six feet that means gaston or prince adam were fucking giants.
Why do I know their names. I haven't seen the movie since I was like 6.
>>7972369
>gaston
>not a big guy
>>7972313
>>7972369
even then she is not "twice a book". About 3.3 of the bigger books (the ones on the bottom shelf to the right). and about 4-4.5 times the size of a smaller book.
Which is a normal size of a cartoon book. The books would be about 1'3" to 1'8. A good sized encyclopedia or cartography book would be about the larger size and anything else would be normal for cartoon.
is this nerdy. Is this an internet topic to talk about? The sizes of the books in beauty and the beast.

That looks like an extremely un-cosy bedroom.

hes a big guy just not 7 to 8 feet fuckin tall man.
>>7972402
He's a fucking huge guy. Here is a pic of him surrounded by average people.
>>7972418
Wew.
>>7972383
>>7972418
That girl looks like a very short girl, so around 5'4". Given perspective and the fact he's standing on a table, gaston would be no more than 6'6"
Which fits the scaling of belle as well. She would be about 5'5-6" tall.
>>7972478

that's just not a good picture for things to go by. A bunch of old men and short fat guys and children. You can't see the ground and everyone has their legs bent hardcore. Look at the guy on the left. You can clearly see hes hunched over.
Also for composition sake they would make him stand out more.

Here's one with them standing up straight. He's a gigantic guy, the 'everyone else is just really short in comparison' argument is not going to work here, because that's pretty much the definition of being tall.
>>7972728
sorry mate you're just wrong.

>>7972778
>>7972728
I adjusted the perspective of the tower building because it's different than the one the people are on. if you use the perspective of that back tower the horizon ends up being further up and makes that dude in the foreground a giant compared to gaston(would would be tiny in comparison)
So given alllll this data gaston is between 6'-6'.6", bell is about 5'.5" and no higher. Meaning those books are normal size god damnit.
>>7972789
In Europe, is Hitler regarded as having successfully achieved his 'Final Solution'? I mean granted, the guy was kind of a spaz, but there aren't exactly a ton of Jews in Poland anymore, am I right?
>>7972778
>>7972728
also did you know how many specific effects jobs I have done that require this very skill? In order to find the size of obejcts in a scene to recreate a prop or CG animated version of that object takes a lot of perspective measurements and comparison of known sizes in the scene.
It's hard to do in cartoons because they can change widely between scenes. But still, pretty confident in knowing what I'm doing and how tall gaston and belle are.
also I'm a competitive long distance rifle shooter. Mildot calculations are fun as fuck.
>>7972812
Yeah I think he considered himself very successful
>>7972812
He took out 87% of the Jews here in the Netherlands. Decent efficiency, but not a success since there are still high ranking politicians and other powerful Jews.

Excuse me, I just want a source for that very specific number of 87%. Surely if you are so precise in your percentage, you should be able to provide me with a source.
