Yes .... the pose and facial expression really creates a sense of menace. The collared waistcoat and the scarf looked exactly as how I picture the character based on Oliver Reeds interpretation

Yep... I reckon it was the "Parcel" left by Bull's Eye in the corner of the block base.

Yes. My idea of Bill Sikes is a mix of images. One of the most influential is, of course, Oliver Reed in this role.
Dickens describes him as: "The man who growled out these words, was a stoutly-built fellow of about five-and-thirty, in a black velveteen coat, very soiled drab breeches, lace-up half boots, and grey cotton stockings which enclosed a bulky pair of legs, with large swelling calves—the kind of legs, which in such costume, always look in an unfinished and incomplete state without a set of fetters to garnish them. He had a brown hat on his head, and a dirty belcher handkerchief round his neck: with the long frayed ends of which he smeared the beer from his face as he spoke. He disclosed, when he had done so, a broad heavy countenance with a beard of three weeks' growth, and two scowling eyes; one of which displayed various parti-coloured symptoms of having been recently damaged by a blow."

Talking of Bull's eye, are you going to do him too?
