Frame Redraw!
Not seeing many people talking about it, but for me this scene was more touching.
Aziraphale's love for humans and Earth was more visible here than in episode 2 in my opinion, and I really wanted to make some art out of it. So I redrew the frame, though with some other interpretations.
Anyways, loved doing this, spiced it with some art-nouveau style.
Also I have the linearts too if you want to color it. I know, Tumblr isn't the best with HQ quality. But if you want to color it, comment and I'll add a link to reach them. ^^
And here's the fully rendered painting, with the frame too.
(Sorry I removed the beard, I couldn't stop myself. But the bowtie stays on)
(I had a strong will to paint the bebe's hair/wing color black/yellow because of the Bentley, but it reminded me too much of Castiel then)
Here's the drive file for all you lovely people who'd love to color it too!!
With PNG and PDF files too either with or without backgrounds ^^

Crowley before The Fall
Ok, so I love angelology, it's so interesting to me and is one of the main reasons I found out about Good Omens.
We all know Crowley used to be an angel and helped build some nebulas, but that was it from season 1.
I found interesting this comment from season 2
"You'd have to be a throne or a dominion, or above".
- Muriel (S2E6 07:32)
Crowley had access to the files, meaning he was a very high ranking angel, let me explain:
In christian catholic angelology there's 9 chorus (types of angels) divided into 3 ranks (being the 1st rank the highest) so we have:
1st rank
• Seraphim
• Cherubim
• Thrones
2nd rank
• Dominions
• Virtues
• Powers
3rd rank
• Principalities (Here's Aziraphale)
• Archangels
• Angels
Considering the duties from the 1st rank and dominions (from the 2nd rank) I consider Crowley was a throne, here's why:
- Seraphim are the caretakers of God's throne, continuously singing "holy, holy, holy", they have 3 pairs of wings and they use one of the pairs to cover their faces from the light of God. "The Burning One".
- Cherubim protect the entry into the garden of Eden, and they continue to guard holy spaces where God dwells and Heaven and Earth overlap. "The One who Blesses". (Aziraphale has the characteristics of a Cherub, but I'll explain that on another post).
- Thrones hold the throne of God, they're depicted as great wheels containing many eyes, and reside in the area of the cosmos where material form begins to take shape. They mete out divine justice and maintain the cosmic harmony of all universal laws.
- Dominions help keep the world in proper order, they're know for delivering God's justice into just situations and help angels in lower ranks stay organized to perform their work well.
"Let there be matter, let there be gravity, let there be everything from pages 11 to 3,000,602 inclusive".
- Crowley (S201 01:10)
"I wasn't the original concept designer, but I worked very closely with upstairs on it".
- Crowley (S201 02:10)
Crowley: Gravity, it's, umm... A thing that happens when objects are pulled together. In this case, they're all pulled downwards because the earth is the largest thing around.
Jim: Why?
Crowley: Honestly, I don't remember. Seemed like a good idea when we were all talking about it.
- (S2E3 16:35)
Crowley made the nebulas Elephant's Tank, Carina and Horsehead (with Saraqael); also helped create the star factory (universe).
Also, at The Fall, some angels from every chorus fell, so it would be no surprise if a throne fell as well.
