What makes DHT in costume incomparable to recreations?

How is it that David Howard Thornton cannot be recreated in costume? I’ve seen goodness knows how many TikTok’s and social media posts of people trying to be Art, but I have yet to see anything that would look exactly like him. It’s the eyes raised and the smile wide, and I know there’s extensive makeup put on, but has anyone even come close yet?

Mods, please don’t ban me for this part: on the ever rare chance that David ever sees this post, just know you have my monetary support for a war chest if you ever start a charity in Alabama for supporting kids in acting!
