Blood Moon Series - Extras

SWS Face Claims 2

Since there were added images, I kinda ran out of quota room, so it got split into two pages instead of just the one. I could have added a couple more to the previous one, but it would have been too lopsided so meh, more for this page. 

Lady

Lady never got a collage because...I kinda forgot to make her one, heh. Her face was made right through artbreeder, based off an image of Ruby Rose. Obviously the red in her hair and her dual-colored eyes aren't shown here, but this is close to what I see for her. 

Orion

Yeah... But who doesn't like Jason Momoa, seriously? He just seemed to fit the roll, especially when working in artbreeder produced this:

While sure, I guess there is a handsomeness there...if you look long enough, but it just wasn't clicking for me. While looking for something else entirely, I happened upon something that kinda had the lightning striking my brain and...well, we'll leave it at my brain -

Just kinda makes your brain flatline for a second, right? Ha! Knew it. Anyway, this model's name is Brock O'Hurn, and he's pretty spot-on as Orion, just missing the darker tips in his hair.

To be honest, when I'd originally made Orion, I didn't have a face pictured, even when I made the collage. Coming across the picture of Momoa seemed to kinda of fit, but it wasn't a perfect one. The height was there, the bulk, even the attitude, just not...something. I donno. That Brock does fit more visually though, even discounting the whole sensual factor he gives off. 

Xavier

This is the only one I have for Xavier (Sad face), because there just is no finding or making him, I've tried lol. He was one that I built, he wasn't based from anyone. The guy in the collage was just a body reference, and even it falls short(still perdy to look at though). The anthro in the top corner was what actually gave me the original idea for him(His Were form looks pretty much akin to that, just without all the clothing/accessories). 

I have since kept an eye out for any that would/could portray him and I just cant find him. Maybe I'm being too picky, but he is one that I have a more clear image of, piece wise. It's still 'blurry', but still clear, if that makes any kind of sense. I see his face, but at the same time, there isn't one. It's confusing, even to me. And don't even get me started on the maddening part. 

Benjamin

Benji's collage; I was amazed I was able to find a tiger with the eyes I needed(from what I understand, that's the actual color of that animal's eyes - although I'm sure it has been brightened for photos). Just as with Xavier, the body is for reference, as are the tats(not those specific ones obviously, and not in those spots, but really close). I did find a model that sort of fit him, not sure why it clicked in my head though - 

Obviously missing the right haircut, tats, and the goatee. Model's name is Ed Skrein; may recognize him from Deadpool or Battle Angel; Alita. He makes a wonderful bad guy, lol
I don't picture Benji quite so stern looking, but definitely has that devil may screw off look about him lol 

There obviously were other characters, but these were the ones that were the most interacted with. The most important anyway. The model images came into play way, way after I'd finished the book, didn't even occur to me to use them till I'd seen others on here doing it. While I don't base my characters around their looks like others do (aside from Lady), it is interesting trying to hunt down images to match a face with what I see in my head. Does get hella frustrating too though lol

What about you all? Did any of them match what you saw in your head? Who did you picture?
