Weaponry Chapter 3 - All Adrift...34 — Description
Ninja action.

So, I got carried away with casting Weaponry with modern film actors. Keep in mind this is not perfect (ages are definitely in need of a little adjustment). But the most challenging aspect was finding non-white actors. Unfortunately I ended up casting a few of the browner characters (the Nonians, the Uvatsperan and Sperans) with white Actors simply because their features fit, or at least mostly fit. If anyone out there has better ideas for some of them (Gun, for instance) - please let me know!

Arrow: media.screened.com/uploads/0/9…
(He looks as close as a real live human is going to get to the stylised way I draw Arrow - the huge brown eyes, the slender girly look, the alabaster skin, he just needs the right hair)

Blade: 31.media.tumblr.com/0ccaa02193…
(for the endless pages of blond actors out there, it was hard to find one that was the right combination of handsome but still a classic example of Aryan beauty)

Gun: upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia…
(This was the hardest one. He's got the bright eyes, the shaped jaw, the right build, but he needs the right hair, the darker complexion and a sharper point to his nose)

Trebuchet: 24.media.tumblr.com/e13d133601…
(Give him the right colours, shape his eyebrows, but he sure has the right jaw, nose and cheekbones)

Target: images.fandango.com/r91.2/Imag…
(specifically him when he's more tanned and younger, and obviously, give him freckles)

Shrapnel: hellogiggles.com/wp-content/up…
(The man that started it all! Though, alternately Rodrigo Santoro, though he's a little too finely featured and chiseled, but his hair in 'Love, Actually' was bang on.)

Shield: static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/G…
(this guy is actually so perfect, I don't have any other comments!)

Cannon: static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/G…
(Build him up to be super muscly and give him the right hair and a missing tooth?)

Sights: www.interviewmagazine.com/file…
(obviously, he'd need to be a little older, but the features are about right once you add all the scars)

Grenade: www.hairstylepedia.com/images/…
(He's got the chin, the bright eyes, the round features. Give him the heterochromia and the silly mustache)

Anyway, that's what I picked out! I'd be happy to hear your thoughts!
