XP: New PB for Yvette

[deathpixie]

So, some/all of you may know I play Penance/Yvette Petrovic in X-Project. For a long time, since I started playing her, I've used Jodelle Ferland as her icon. I'm thinking of changing, however. So, two images for you to choose between, or, if neither turns your crank, who would you suggest for a small, slightly-built and young-looking 17 year old from Albania (answers in the comments since I forgot to add an "other" box...)?


[Poll #1537422]


Pic 1 - Dakota Fanning


Pic 2 - Jodelle Ferland

Fanning image is creepy.

Also - and this is not a suggestion, but rather a random fact - did you know that Eliza Dushku is ethnically Albanian?

I don't think Dakota Fanning is a bad pick, but I am resistant to change! And torn which to choose...

[deathpixie]

I'd stick with Jodelle in a heartbeat if she didn't keep taking "little girl" roles. That's the real issue - Yvette looks younger, but I can't justify using icons of a 14 year old any more!

Here I am being unhelpful, but Albanians don't have Slavic surnames like Petrovic.

Re: the icons, Jodelle Ferland looks more Albanian, but Dakota Fanning looks more like Penance.

[deathpixie]

Very unhelpful, given I've been playing the character for four years! ;P

[redmonster.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm unhelpful. Sorry.

I wonder from time to time whether XP people would be interested in/receptive to a quick'n'dirty Photoshop-for-dummies tutorial on changing skin/hair colour/other frequent manips that need done - maybe one that could be stuck up on the wiki... Thoughts?

I did one aaaaages ago for Jazz and Sil, but it's been long deleted. A new one would be ace.

Also, Jodelle. I just saw Dakota in PUSH and thus am freaked out by any other notion.

[frito-kal.livejournal.com]

YES PLEASE I WILL CLING TO YOUR ANKLES.

That would be awesome. I mostly point and click and hope.

[deathpixie]

Definitely! Go for it!

[frito-kal.livejournal.com]

I think if Jodelle looked like that in EVERY picture she'd be perfect but most of her pics she looks like, eleven.

[deathpixie]

Yeah, I was saying to Bounce last night, Dakota and Jodelle are actually the same age - the difference is Dakota is taking on more "grown up" roles, while Jodelle is typecast as the little girl. Makes it hard to get new pics for her!

[frito-kal.livejournal.com]

Dakota's got more maturity to her face, although that may be the roles and not the person.

You know, I really like the Dakota picture that's done up there. If you are going to change it, she's a really good choice.
