KA2OTH CELEBRATION | Day 7 - Endings

AN: For today's @ka20th prompt I decided to focus on Guinevere's wedding dress. All the costumes in this film are absolute stand-outs but this one is so undeniably beautiful! Simple and elegant, extravagant and just well made!

It was my life to be taken! Not this...never this! My brave knights, I have failed you. I neither took you off this island nor shared your fate.

AN: Gosh Lancelot's death in this film just kills me because I wasn't expecting it at all. I knew Tristan would die when he decided to face Cerdic alone, but Lancelot's death just hit me right in the heart. He didn't even get to see Arthur one last time nor did he get to say goodbye. How cruel is that? Well you know how these ancient tragedies go...no-one gets a happy ending. (P.S. I'm really happy with how this turned out💙)

KA20TH CELEBRATION | Day 5 - Sacrifice

AN: For today's @ka20th prompt I decided to dedicate it to Arthur's ceremonial armour that he wore during the Battle of Badon. Not only did he stay behind to fight the Saxons so that his Knights could finally go home and be free, but he looked INCREDIBLE! I must say though, I am bias to the armour that he wears with the red cape, but gosh this one just stands out. Doesn't it?

KA20TH CELEBRATION | Day 4 - Home

AN: How can I do this series and not include The Roundtable? Gosh the empty seats are a gut punch to the heart. So many men sat around this table but only six survived. So many years lost to an Empire that hey were forced to serve and to cause they didn't even believe in. But they all believed in Arthur and that's all that matters. (P.S. I love that Arthur and Lancelot are sitting next to each other 🤭)

Also to anyone who's writing fics for this film, feel free to use this has visual inspiration if you're struggling with imagery or what-not💖

KA20TH CELEBRATION | Day 4 - Home

AN: Here's part II of the Hadrian's Wall series for today's @ka20th prompt. This one was interesting because we never truly got to see Arthur in his own quarters. I know we had the scene where he slept with Guinevere but that was it. Wish we got to see more!

Also to anyone who's writing fics for this film, feel free to use this has visual inspiration if you're struggling with imagery or what-not💖 (P.S. This was probably one of the hardest things to gif, the colouring/lighting in those scenes are horrible 😭)

KA20TH CELEBRATION | Day 4 - Home

AN: You know, at first when I saw today's @ka20th prompt I wasn't sure what to do. But then I thought, why not get a closer look at the place that the knights have called home for years. Let's zoom into the details because the set/production design is incredible in this film. Hope you enjoy this series!

AN: During my re-watch of King Arthur for the @ka20th event, I noticed that Lancelot had this re-occurring expression whenever Arthur did an act that was selfless or towards Rome. I just thought it was interesting because no matter how hard he disagreed with him he always stuck by him, and I just think that's neat. Don't you?

KA20TH CELEBRATION | Day 2 - Love

AN: For today's @ka20th prompt I decided to focus on an underrated pairing. I know that a lot of people ship Galahad with Tristan because of Hannibal but there's something about these two that make me ship them instead. Maybe it's the little smiles that they share, or Gawain's glances, or the fact that they're always side by side on screen. I can't put my finger on it!

KING ARTHUR + Google Searches

AN: Happy 20th Anniversary to this amazing film! I'm super excited to be celebrating with you all and I can't wait to see what you've all created for @ka20th. I know we're a very small fandom but it's nice to see that we all love and cherish this movie (even though it get's a lot of hate💖)

I decided interpret the today's prompt loosely and have a bit of fun by creating something I've always wanted to make for a while now!
