By clicking the source link, you will find 150 gifs of Tobin Bell in the Saw franchise (2004-2010). All of the gifs were created by me from scratch. You may use these gifs to roleplay or as reaction gifs. Please do not repost or claim these gifs as your own. Contact me if you would like to edit these gifs for any purpose. I will most likely say yes. Like or reblog if you find these gifs helpful! Reach out to me if you have any advice or recommendations, as I am considering making gifs regularly, if people like these ones. Thank you!
Notes: The Saw franchise includes graphic horror movies with ample gore and scenes of violence. There are themes of manipulation and abuse involved in the context of some of these gifs; several of the gifs feature violence, blood, and weapons used to torture. However, most gifs do not feature torture scenes. Please open, view, and utilize at your own discretion. Tag distressing material when using these gifs.
Featuring: Costas Mandylor, Shawnee Smith, Betsy Russell, Matt Passmore, Peter Outerbridge, and Billy Otis.
Tobin Bell is an American actor and he is of White descent, so please cast him accordingly. While he is currently 78 years of age, these images are from multiple Saw movies, during which he would be between 62 and 68 years of age. Limited gifs are from Jigsaw (2017), in which Bell was 75 years of age.
Peter Puklus’ The Epic Love Story of a Warrior, published by SPBH Editions
Peter’s dense little tome is everything I love about people making images that at first seem like simple aesthetics, but when viewed in the larger body of work become something entirely different. The book is very weighted towards speaking about post-war European sensibilities in the flood of Western capitalism. It is by no small measure that Mr. Puklus comes from Hungary – a country that dealt with multiple tyrannies and multiple ideological perspectives over the last 60 years. His book is also the closest I have seen visually to Paul Outerbridge. ~ Brad Feuerhelm's Best of 2016 and 2017
And then there’s another get-to-know-me post thing
Rules: Tag 9 people you want to get to know better. Tagged by @rachaelmhill
Appearance
5’8”, slender, Caucasian, brunette, short-ish hair, no make-up, casual dresser, comfy clothes, no frills, no heels. I consider myself pretty average, I don’t stand out in a crowd.
Personality
I’m not even sure where to start. As per HBDI, I’m a 1221, but that probably won’t tell you much. I work mostly on a rational and very little on an emotional level. I don’t like big crowds. I have very little patience for people who can’t seem to get to the point. Most people see me as an extrovert, but I consider myself an outgoing introvert. I’m fond of snark and cheeky remarks, and I can be a potty mouth if I let myself be.
Ability
I’m told I’m pretty good at landscape photography, image editing, webdesign and visual layouting, fabric painting, creative writing, computer geekery, the English language (German is my mother tongue), project management, and Vinyasa yoga.
Hobbies
Pretty much the same as those listed in ability, with the addition of board games and tabletop role playing. I love hiking, but I don’t do it often enough. Does catching up with my TV shows and movies count, too?
Experiences
Traveling to different foreign countries has opened my eyes in lots of ways, especially to cultural differences and nuances. I consider myself pretty blessed where that’s concerned.
Some of the really amazing things that have happened in my life are meeting actors that I’m really fond of. I’ve had very special 1:1 up-close-and-personal meetings with Chris Marquette and Peter Outerbridge. You know, the kind that every fan dreams about, where they sit down with them and have a very in-depth, personal conversation. Those were incredible experiences, which I will treasure for the rest of my life. My 2013 Canada vacation was a dream come true in many ways.
Trying to save the Canadian TV show Bomb Girls back in early 2013 was also a pretty defining time where I learned a lot, and met a lot of really wonderful people. We weren’t successful in the end, but I still look back at it with fond memories and a number of really cool things that came out of it.
Of course not everything in my life is hunky-dory. I’m struggling with hard to pin down food intolerance issues that have a pretty big impact on my current life. But, you know, you deal with it. Somehow. I have chronic back issues from working a desk job most of my life. You deal with that, too. My dad passed away pretty much overnight in early 2014. That sucked. A lot.
My Life
I’m in my early 40’s, so there’s a lot to tell, although most of it is pretty boring. Had a wonderful childhood, great parents, no siblings. Career-wise, also boring. School, molecular biology studies at uni, subsequent career in the pharmaceutical industry. I have an average job, an average apartment, an average car. I have wonderful friends. All in all, I’m pretty happy with where I am right now, and that’s a wonderful thing to be able to say.
Random
I’m not a big fan of these chain letter type things, so I’m not gonna tag anyone. If anyone reads this and is up to the challenge, feel free to consider yourself tagged.
