Title: Put a face to this character?
Post by: Jelena on January 08, 2012, 02:50:29 AM
Ok, so I'm mighty jealous of all those awesome banners I see on the forum, and would love to make one of my own! Only, I can't for the life of me find a picture of someone like Parme. Does anyone have an idea on who I could use for her?

This is her sheet:

I like the laugh lines around her eyes :)

Now, I'm not into assigning faces to my personas just because I'm really old fashioned and I like to use my imagination  :hiding:
But it does make me curious...  If you were going to choose a picture for my personas, who would you choose?  Maybe go for these guys:

U'kaiah (http://www.triadweyrs.org/persona.php?ps_id=78)
Hygalia (http://www.triadweyrs.org/persona.php?ps_id=707)
Morin (http://www.triadweyrs.org/persona.php?ps_id=764)

Or any of my other personas (http://triadweyrs.org/member.php?mb_id=23) for that matter!

Hehe, yeah, I don't usually put actors/actresses on my characters either, but I love those pretty banners and would love to have one of my own, hehe! :)

As for you chars, I'm thinking really hard, I know I remember some fitting Hygalia's and Morin's description, but I can't remember any names or movie titles. I will think on it. It can be a fun game!

Edit: And yay! My egg just hatched! *g*

I write with U'kaiah quite a bit and have to say that in my mind he looks like Joe Mangiello (http://urbanmogullife.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/joe-manganiello.jpg) from True Blood.

Now for Hygalia the closest Ive been able to come in my mind is Odette Yustman (http://wallpaperpassion.com/upload/4012/odette-yustman-wallpaper.jpg)

And Morin, again when I write with someone I like to picture what they look like in my mind and for him I've always seen Kurt Russel (http://img.listal.com/image/7077/500full-kurt-russell.jpg)


Oh, and I"ve made quite a few of those banners and would be happy to help you with one for your persona's Jelena.

With U'kaiah's sheet, all I can see is that JAW! Which makes me think of F1's David Coulthard (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:David_Coulthard_2007.jpg).

I think this is the link (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:David_Coulthard_2007.jpg) you're going for there, Caladria ;)

You would? I'd be very grateful! What fonts do you use? I really like the one with the swirly capitals :)

Ha ha, that one DOES look like a drawing of U'kaiah!!

Now now, ladies, let's remember that U'kaiah is a SWIMMER.  I would picture him looking more like this (http://www.sauvagewear.com/mm5/graphics/00000001/M131_4.jpg) but with a bit more body hair ;)

Oh sure! There are a couple of fonts that I use for that.  "Precious" is the one I used for Benani, and Eutemia for Cyradis. There are quite a few others as well depending on the effect you're going for.

Poor little personas, hehe. Hardly room to breathe!

LOL, like Suzee, I enjoy creating banners. So if anyone ever needs one just let me know :)

Well, I'm not having much luck with my banner... I'm just not that much of a photoshop person, I'm afraid. So if anyone feels like taking a stab at a banner for me, I'd be forever grateful :D For Parme, I really like this picture (http://www.kathynajimy.com/photos/images/KN00003.jpg) and the one Eimi posted above of Kathy Najimy. Naton would be portrayed by Nathan Fillion, hehe :)

Edit: Look what my sister made me! *bounces and points down to sig*
