Snowflake Challenge - Day Seven

[ithildin]

Fandom is filled to the brim with all kinds of talented people. From writers of both stories and meta to reccers to artists who have some awesome skills. Some of us have a blast creating, but might not be as vocal about wanting fannish things.

Today’s the day to say “You know what would be greatness? If someone made (blank) for me.”

I have a hard time asking for stuff, which is probably why I've only participated in this sort of thing a total of once before. But I'll screw myself up to do it today.


I'm not an artist, or good enough at graphics, and one of the things I've wanted for a while would require me being. [points to icon] My character, Charlotte Sparrow, is based visually on a nineteenth century opera singer, Lina Cavalieri. There's a fair amount of photos of her in period opera costumes, which is terrific for historic images of Charlotte, but I have nothing for modern day. Okay, so this is farfetched, but doesn't hurt to ask, right?

An Avengers fan mix - if everyone had a most played song on their MP3 player, what would it be? And speaking of Avengers, someone with mad banner making skilz making a banner for avengersblend. That would be awesome!

Last, I think would be cool to read what happened when Loki joined the Halloween party after my story, Variations On A Theme For Cowboys, ends. I'm pretty sure others could come up with much more fun scenarios than I could. Female!Loki and Natasha perhaps? They'd sure be pretty together!

Okay, I did it. Now to hit post....

You asked about Avengers music. This is my Loki song, hands down. It just fits hims so perfectly. The video isn't bad either.

More detail, please. Because I love to draw, and could totally work something up, but I need more than "modern day." Hairstyle, fashion sense, time period, age, etc. If you go to my galleries on LJ mizface you can see a couple of my drawing styles. Then, if you like what you see, feel free to send details, questions, etc to me at mizface at comcast dot net

That is a great idea for an Avengers fanmix! I may have to try that idea out soon. I just recently made a mix for Clint Barton; I think the second track on it would be the most listened-to song on his iPod. But now I am seriously tempted to figure out what I'd pick for everyone else!

:jumps up excitedly: I want to make a banner! But I have a favor to ask - would you consider changing the current layout/background? Because the current background is very noticeable when I scroll and is making me dizzy. :( And if there are enough comments on a post, eventually they will end up being all smushed together. :(

Other than that, whatever dimensions you decide upon, let me know. And perhaps also if you have any ideas about the banner, you could tell me something about them as well.

As for modern day Charlotte, could you elaborate? Do you want the image of Lina to be photomanipulated onto modern day clothes, or did you mean having someone do actual hand drawn art? Because I'm working on getting my skills improved, and I'd be happy to give it a try. Can't promise it would be finished soon, or look great, but I'm willing. :)

Not sure how successful I was -with the first one, I think I tried too hard to update everything, including the hair, and she's almost unrecognisable. The second one, I peeled that back a bit and I think works slightly better...
