Moongirl: Any Takers?

So, I finally bit the bullet and made a female character. I always swore I'd never do it, as I didn't think I could "play" a heroine, at least not well enough to do her justice. But then I was handed a cool name, and I *did* have a powerset combo I wanted to try out...

...and then I thought, "What if Kristen Bell got superpowers and ran around in a variation of Emma Peel's leather outfit?" After recovering from that visual, I made this little lady.

The ladies seem to be awfully popular with the artists here, so if anyone wants to take a crack at her, that'd be fantastic. I'm quite sure I'll be commissioning some pieces of her, as the thought of a sort've photorealistic Kristen-Bell-in-Emma-Peel-leather picture is just too darn good to not happen.

That's a neat look. If you want to consider a photo manipulation in the future, check our my DA gallery for the couple pieces frfom chillyplasma. That might be one way for it to actually look like the actual person.

Nice concept, I love it when people pick actors/actresses for their toons, as a portrait artist primarily, it really helps me define the final piece. However I'm a little confused, you say, " I'm quite sure I'll be commissioning some pieces of her", but yet you're asking, "so if anyone wants to take a crack at her"...

Do you mean take a crack at her for the commission? Like we do the piece and then ask for payment? Or did you want a free piece with any kind of likeness, just to have a 1 shot piece of art? I agree with the photo manip, if you want the actual look and can't wait...

Being both a Bell an Peel fan, I'd love to do this but I'm swamped... Darn too! I foresee a jumping into a chasm of buildings version ala Daredevil, with 2-3 smaller faded gymnastic shots behind the main figure to show movement...

Good luck with this one!

heh I read the first post and thought of DarkEther's past photo manips as well lol.
Daredevil... hmm... that's a different angle than I woulda thought of. Due to the name I thought of the usual either sidekick to Moon Knight or a someone inspired by him, or someone taking up his mantle.
At any rater, nice concept. I know the feeling about not being able to make certain characters. I can't make male characters very well for some reason. *shurgs*
That's cool idea about picking and actress/actor to fit ones character. I saw that Comrade Hero does that, never thought to do it myself, but I hadn't thought of it from an artist's point of view. Might have to go think about my chars for a bit. heh

Seeing as how you still got 7 in my queue, it's not too late...

damn, double pwned lol.

I'll think of the actresses that fit my chars, at least the ones you haven't done yet. This might be a little harder as I'm not usually a good judge of which celebs would be right for a roles but I'll figure out something.
Making the mini summaries have helped me tighten up some character back stories. Some didn't make sense the way they were, or weren't even complete. And it's really defined the chars a bit more, at least in my own mind. Picking the actresses that go with them should refine it even more.

Greedy? Me? nahh.. damn... got caught... lol *tries to form some sort of defense* at least they're not all in a row.. they're staggered in LJ's list... which he suggested, but I still went with it *hopes that flies*

Doesn't matter to me, if you want Phyllis Diller and the Golden Girls as the Heris/Wherls, I'll DO it! It's what the client wants, not what I want... so much... hey if you got a thing for cougars, I will try my best to make you happy, though there might be a slight surcharge for upchucking...

OMG pwnage AGAIN!

Srsly, it helps to envision an actor/actress, or model, when commissioning art.

And as for cougars... I've got a 2500+ year old succubus, you think Kim Cattrall is too old?

No, Kim's ageless, from her debut in Porky's which I will never forget and her glorious run as Samantha - Kim will always be hot!
