Today I have three more real life actors/actresses that match characters from my original novels in appearance. As an occasional reader, I'm a big fan of visual aids, so I like knowing what characters resemble. Helps give my imagination something to build from. *grins*
On to today's characters~
First we have the character Wesley Graves from A Thousand Words, my collection of short stories. Wesley is from the first and sixth snapshots. The actor I've chosen who resembles him is Alex Denisof best known for his character from Buffy: The Vampire Slayer. Their resemblance is uncanny.
And our last character for today is from the same fic Fallen Angel, Fallen God. This is the main character Seiji/Radwan. He's a very androgynous character so it took some time to find the right male who had the same androgynous type-looks without looking too feminine. The actor I chose was Drew Fuller of Charmed fame. Now this pic right here is perfect. The hair cut, the stare, the body size. Drew is totally Seiji in this picture, except for the shade of hair since Seiji is a redhead.

Next up we have a female character. *gasp* How unusual I know. This match up is Malaika from my slashy short story Fallen Angel, Fallen God. I chose Tilda Swinton as the actress who best pulls her off. If you've seen her as Gabriel in Constantine then you'll know why I chose her. Plus, she was an awesome White Witch in The Chronicles of Narnia: the Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. This picture, I think, best suits my idea of what Malaika resembles.

Well, these are all the ones I have for today. More to come as soon as I find them.
