Anne Hathaway, Y/N?

She's got that sort of awkward pretty going on, and the benefit of using an actress is that I get lots of expressions. But is she too recognizable? We had a Christian Bale and currently have a Jonathan Rhys-Meyers, so... is it an issue to use someone recognizable?

Sample icons here.

Ben's PB is Malcom in the Middle, so personally, I don't think it'd really be an issue--especially since you're turning her green, anyway? And I'm not just swinging in to say this because those icons are so incredible, honest.

Literally, the only problem I have with her is that she has bangs sometimes. I love her smirks and she's got the right nose (what is with so many actresses/models having button noses) and yeah, the awkward-pretty. She looks good in green, too. XD

Bangs can be a problem?

I think I'm going to run with them. The book is nonspecific, and while I didn't picture her that way, I'm happy with this iconset.

I think unless someone objects, I'm going with her.

III say go with it? I mean, if someone apps like, The Princess Diaries, you might have to work something out, but it shouldn't really be a problem otherwise.

I'd just have to find someone else. Not the end of the world.

It's winding up looking like a Wraeththu set anyway, because I decided to keep in the other models. Oh well. Pretty.

For the record, Anne Hathaway fits perfectly IMO. And I don't think it's a huge issue, even if someone did app The Princess Diaries, because... well, what's to stop someone from apping Daphne from the Scooby-Doo movies, even though we have a Buffy in camp, or say someone wanted to app from The Prestige -- does that mean we could never have a Wolverine or Bruce Wayne in camp? I think most people would be all, "OH WOW STARTLING LIKENESS" and then let it drop, because everyone knows camp itself is The Specialest Snowflake, and nothing should really surprise anyone anymore.
