PIC: Zoomorphic Revolutionaries

Yes, yet another joke on Thermidorian propaganda. I promise to post the other two Vampire Hunter Rousseau pictures soon, they're more interesting. ^^;; [livejournal.com profile] maelicia and I were talking about various depictions of revolutionaries in Thermidorian propaganda, and the popular description of Maxime as a cat came up.

I commented that it's a good thing no one who had read that particular story had then gone onto a career in anime, or else we'd be faced with catboy!Robespierre and other such things...

Inevitably, I actually did draw it. ^^







I'm contemplating continuing this, because it takes me about two minutes to do each one. Any ideas? Snake!Marat? Something for Saint-Just? And what is Camille - some sort of pigeon???

Suggestions welcome, please. Accuracy to Thermidorian preferred for the joke value, but not required. ^__^

My view is that hunting with dogs is not only morally correct but also a natural expression of mans' nature as an omnivore.

Question: ...can we eat foxes? Because I doubt we do. And thus the whole argument fails.

We could eat them, in case of dire need, but we don't. But obviously, the argument still fails, because they're hardly in dire need, now are they?
