Oi, this was a difficult challenge! It required thinking about which canons (books, in my case) to icon, and then finding the right actors for the parts, and then manipping them to look the way I wanted them to. Phew. I hope I found good ones!

Now for our second round! It's quite a challengenging theme, I hope you like it!

This challenge was originally posted to [livejournal.com profile] theiconthrone in November 2016 here . Thank you so much to [personal profile] sietepecados for allowing us to use it!

If you yourself are a mod of an (old, closed) comm, and you'd like to allow us to revisit some of your challenges, let me know! I'm currently in the process of PMing mods of older comms, but it'll take a while. All the comms we currently have permission for are listed in the masterlist here.




Challenge Post by [personal profile] sietepecados




Who would you choose for the main protagonist if your favourite book was being filmed? You love a tv show, but you'd like to change the cast? Your favourite comic book hero should look like...?
Nothing more simple. In this challenge you can cast all the people you like. Create your own fancast for the roles you'd like to see on a big or small screen. If you feel inspired you can totally change their appearance to better match the role you're giving them. Change their hair color, turn them blue if you want to see them in the next part of Avatar, draw them a mask. Please let us know in your entries who will be who in your dream cast.



Astrid Berges Frisbey as Barbara Gordon | Claire Holt as Supergirl | Gemma Arterton as Evie Frye (Assassin's Creed) | Lady Gaga as Cruella de Vil | Lucy Liu as Nikita
