Re: Facecasting

I feel like Jensal deserves a facecast. Her hair color would obviously have to be Photoshopped, so that doesn't matter, but that leaves a lot of choices that are just really not there. A Jensal must be light brown skinned and brown eyed and look constantly exasperated with you and have bangs and look generally Jensalish. Cast page.

Aubrey Plaza is insufficiently brown and so is Kate Earl. Collien Fernandes is insufficiently exasperated and so is Hannah Simone. Zoe Kravitz doesn't have the right face. I think right now my best contender is Shannyn Sossamon but she's not really quite there unless bluing her hair makes her look browner. Or Kat Graham, but her face is just subtly off for Jensal. Help?

http://hellobeautiful.com/2012/08/30/bl ... ris-brown/ I found a picture of Nicki Minaj with blue hair. and K Michelle too. I don't know who these people are but there are pictures of them at the link and it says they're celebrities.

Alas, wrong shade of blue and wrong underlying hairstyle.

Jessica Parker Kennedy is one of my faves. (http://www.insanejournal.com/tools/memo ... filter=all) (http://www.hollow-art.com/category/acto ... er-kennedy) though she doesn't have a fringe. She does make a nice exasperated face though.

She's very cute, kind of too cute, and the bangs are not particularly negotiable, Jensal is for some reason very attached to the bangs.

Velile Tshabalala has a good face but too dark and curly. Jameela Jamil I googled and there's... I don't know, a twinkle in her eye? Jensal does not hold with twinkling eyes.

If any face wizards would be interested, I am looking for a face for Steve Carlsberg, from Night Vale. Unfortunately, I don't entirely know what I am looking for in his face. He is an adult, probably not wearing a suit, and needs to be able to look really scared at least once, and making a variety of faces is better. Does anyone know of a face that would suit?

Stephen Root's face is sometimes okay for Steve Carlsberg, but there don't seem to be any existing icons of him, and I can't find him making the right faces in image searches either. Thank you, though!
