PB SUGGESTIONS

Re: PB SUGGESTIONS

howdy anons. looking for a drawn medium pb for a stoic, adult tengu woman. regular humans are totally fine, since i'm mostly trying to nail down the right calm/serious/mature vibes.

not fussed on other details, though the ideal would be short/medium-length, light hair and some traditional clothing. the default art for tosa from azur lane would be perfect if it carried over to everything else, for (hopefully) some idea of what i mean.

thanks!

Hiya, anons.

I'm looking for a PB to a similar vibe to the character in red here: https://i.imgur.com/kqcA7vO.jpeg

Sadly in almost every panel he appears in the panel composition or other details block him or the hide the gestures that make him expressive without a visible face. Not great for an icon set. Source is Walter Simonson's Ragnarok,for those curious.

So, the basics are a burly, faceless either by helmet/veil sort but with more of a magic user energy than a brute. I also considered Agahnim from Zelda, or Golbez from FFIV.

golbez did get an updated version (sorta) in FFXIV; you could check for screencaps from that if you like the design

Re: PB SUGGESTIONS

not a suggestion, but... would you consider it awkward to use a pb from an ongoing, relatively popular canon? i haven't really seen anyone play this particular character around dw, but the canon itself is a "probably at least one per page on any big meme" one, so i'm worried it might ruffle some feathers somehow, lol.

Re: PB SUGGESTIONS

[(Anonymous)]

yeah

Re: PB SUGGESTIONS

[(Anonymous)]

Short answer: no.

Slightly longer answer, maybe. Using a super popular character with a distinctive appearance that everyone would recognise could be a bit awkward. If it's a canon that is flashing in the pan right now, don't worry about it.

Re: PB SUGGESTIONS

i'd be disappointed if the pb is from a canon character i want to tag only to find out it's not that character. i think most people would be. better to use a more obscure pb than bucky barnes.

Re: PB SUGGESTIONS

[(Anonymous)]

It depends entirely on who the pb is. Like, thinking about characters rarely played from the MCU, if you used Liv Tyler or Guy Pearce as a pb, hell yeah, go for it, people forget their movies exist and they're relatively minor characters. But probably don't use someone like Paul Bettany (distinctive make-up), Aaron Taylor Johnson (close relation to a character people often play) or Patti Lupone (the show she's in JUST came out).

Re: PB SUGGESTIONS

[(Anonymous)]

yes, it tends to smack of someone who wants to ride the wave of popularity with the face while getting out of dealing with the actual popular canon

Re: PB SUGGESTIONS

[(Anonymous)]

i think it's weird to get ruffled over someone's pb but as you can see here, it happens

Re: PB SUGGESTIONS

[(Anonymous)]

not really? people do this all the time on dw esp if it's going to be for an oc. opinions differ on this tho

if you have good skills with Photoshop you can also edit the pb so the eye color or hair is different for that character. or if it's from a manga it makes it easier to color it in whatever way you want

[ithacant]

a pb that would fit odysseus of ithaca. something like this fanart but any tired, long haired old man would do!

[(Anonymous)]

Ooh, I JUST started reading something with a face that will work well!

https://mangadex.org/title/6532bfa8-1a83-47f6-bec2-38fb2444f3e3/re-cervin?tab=chapters

Very tired old man is a main character.

Looking for a live action blonde woman in her early thirties. Ice queen and defrosting ice queen expressions appreciated and if there's a woman like that with a blonde chin length bob, that's even better. However, the main priority is the expressions.

Thanks!

hiiii, anons

i'm in need of a stoic/grumpy/generally linefaced, teenager-young adult adjacent, drawn medium guy. black or dark hair, fluffy, bit of a brat, angst points, not toooo mature.

i was thinking about the guy from hyouka but the style is a tiny bit on the moe side :(

female character, white, 20s-30s, very very short brunette/red hair, as in recently shaved and just starting to grow back short. original plan was jena malone in mockingjay part 2 but she doesn't have enough screen time. la preferred. tia

natalie portman in v for vendetta?

Re: PB SUGGESTIONS

[(Anonymous)]

hoping to get some help tracking down a pb for a mid- to late-forties guy of romanian, bulgarian, or turkish nationality. preferably thin in appearance and starting to gray. less conventionally attractive than sebbystan.

Re: PB SUGGESTIONS

[(Anonymous)]

best i could come up with is Hal Ozsan, who played Trish's boyfriend Griffin in Jessica Jones. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1230639

there's also Noah Reid who played Patrick in Schitt's Creek, tho he's a little younger than what you're looking for. might work if you take him from his most recent role Murder In a Small Town. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0717383/

[cattlefodder]

With EPIC the Musical wrapping up soon, I def wanna play Eurylochus more and need a good pb for his icons. I may end up simply splicing through the videos the creator uploaded showing the progress to make icons of the singer for him. Something close to this fanart, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Re: PB SUGGESTIONS

looking for a pb! specifically need to note that the character is a female immortal, think highlander; gets into a lot of damage but survives regardless.

she's an oc, so i don't have specific appearance pinned down, what i'm looking for are caps of characters likely from horror movies where they get beat up/bloodied. basically, i need a final girl for this, and i'd rather not use anyone too well known (so no jessica biel in texas chainsaw for instance).

Re: PB SUGGESTIONS

kiana madeira from fear street 1994 immediately came to mind

Re: PB SUGGESTIONS

looking for a female character who wears a blindfold or really dark glasses. medium doesn't matter.

i know of 2b and there's the one in honkai: star rail but i'd like someone less flashy and with a simpler design, and not so well-known (in the case of 2b).
