CURIOUS

I made the following for a friend, to help clear her mind of bad art. It got me curious. The art is different for every arc, so we get a different Tony and a different Steve every few issues, but most people who read fic, or even just think about characters while they aren't reading comics, have a picture in their head that is their own representation of the character.



alright I decided to change them to links since they're stretching the screen and I hate that :||

Tony in my head collage. I thought I preferred Tony with a more long/lanky/angular look but uh lol apparently not!

Steve in my head collage.

Steve didn't surprise me at all, I am very aware that I like him to look like a fucking tank. xD
I was gonna be more comprehensive but life D:



Who is Tony and who is Steve in your head? What are your favorite looks? There are so many different variations of these guys, I'm really curious to see what some of you picture when you write and read!

Agreed again, couldn't have put it better myself you know this drill, we've done it before.

But I think even worse for me than the perm, because everyone needs to learn from that mistake at least once and Stark is no exception, is that fade he had for a while. What the hell was that? If I was Rumiko I'd have been like... grow your hair out and then we'll talk. Disgraceful.

Haha, I have no Steve voice at all... which is why he is probably sucktastic in my fic. But whatever. I'll be fine playing Tony for the rest of my life... which is weird because somehow it's translated to real life when my ex said I reminded her of him after seeing the movie. And my Starkness intensified.

I mean, it was the nineties, it was an innocent time, and the facial scaping prevented it from looking too poncey. He couldn't wear it now, because the naughties is a different time. But I like the look because it captures a time.

which is weird because somehow it's translated to real life when my ex said I reminded her of him after seeing the movie.

Oy. RDJ really impressed me. Like, really, really, really impressed me with the Starkness. Props to the director who was brought up on the comic and the screen writers.

When's the second IM movie coming out, btw?

I've never been a fan of the fade style on anyone. It's just goofy. But again, if anyone can marginally make it work...

RDJ, I loved him before IM and after I considered becoming him.

I believe 2 is slated for May of 2010, same year as Thor and then Captain America and Avengers will be in 2011. So we have a year of hype for IM 2 to look forward to, and two years of Avengers and Cap hype.

May I friend you? I think I'm in love. (or as close as I'm willing to admit to such)

I'll friend you

The thing is, I stopped using my LJ ages ago (I was in the HP fandom), and I only use it for posting fic on this comm. :D' I'll friend you because I read my flist. Are you on twitter? I'm jazzypom I'm like, there everyday.

I don't know if Twitter works on Mac. I use ichat which essentially is AIM.

But I'm not opposed to new messenger systems. I am a fan of chatting with people about random things in replacement for doing important things.

Ah, so that was AIM is

I tend to twitter stuff about Tony Stark, and bitch about the fanfic I'm writing. It was supposed to be 100k, but I'll be lucky if I can get 25k of fic that I actually like. I've done 5k (that I like), am an another 5k (but side eyeing Steve because he wants a part of that action, and that ain't gonna fly. I just haven't told Captain Underpants as yet).

Fun, it is. I'm also knitting socks. Oy.

Well I will check out this twitter thing and send you a little message when I figure it out. I've got nothing important to do today (which means I actually have a lot of important things to do today) so it'll be a time filler.

IF you ever use instant messenger. I am literally on it all the time. I also have yahoo messenger.

Ah, I'm on gmail messenger

It doesn't crash or act up like my bloody MSM, and yahoo is problematic. I tend to be on gmail and twitter most times. Or reading online comics, and looking at twenty pages of longhand Stark fic to type on my google documents.

Once you go gmail, boy...

iChat has been faithfully behaved. It sometimes has it's issues and I tell it to stop being such a bitch and it behaves again.
