Having looked through those, facial expressions on offer also matter a lot - particularly having a few different icons where the person isn't looking at the camera, is staring off into space, is looking at the camera but not at the viewer, etc. Dusk doesn't do much eye contact and I definitely feel the need to show that - having a super intense but fairly expressionless eye contact option is also a plus. Adele fits the bill, and Emily Browning isn't bad, but the rest of them basically don't work on that front.

Pretty sure that is Nick

Also it is just me or Rafael Cardoso (brazilian actor) looks like a possible Bell + Miles spawn?

I mean, yes, but on the other hand I don't like his face.

I think I suggested him for Nick, but wasn't sure he'd actually been used.

My characters will probably all have one face unless there's a really compelling reason to not.

Margaret Qualley kinda reminds me of Elspeth, or maybe another Bellsibling.

She has a couple Elspethy faces but doesn't fill a niche.

Hello! So I'm about to start glowficcing and want to facecast a character that exists on Second Life.

They are a metamorphmagus from the potterverse, this is what they currently look like:

Their most frequent facial expressions are expressionless, wicked/mischievous grin, belly laugh, and annoyance/frustration.

I can take more pictures of their SL existence if you like, though engine constraints mean that if I try to show you any facial expressions they will look like the grin of the devil.
