GQ Ganesh

[tikific]

So, this is Arjun Rampal, Z's model for the Ganesh art:





The rest of the photo spread is here.

It's so weird! Ganesh is supposed to be a devotee of GQ, and I had joked in one of the chapters about the magazine calling him for style advice. This is like EXACTLY how I pictured he would look on GQ - he's even wearing a suit with no tie. And he even borrowed one of Charles' grey suits with a red tie in that third photo.



See? He's still pissed that he had to shave off the beard.

Mean, it's almost scary how well Z nailed this one.

Wowee, he's like the Hindi version of Skwisgaar, long and lean and dead sexy! No wonder Skwisgaar's gay for him. Oh geezy, now I'm picturing Skwis in Ganesh's pyjamas.

Happy pants are happy.

[tikistitch.livejournal.com]

NOOOOOO! Skwis can't have him!

Oh, wait, unless he's the AU Ganesh. :D

I can't keep all my boys straight any more!

(Well, they were never STRAIGHT. But, you know....) :D

Saaaaaaay...!

Oh, my. Sariel better keep a short chain on that one. I'm not above cross-dressing to get my way.

If you want more, here's the list I was choosing from: http://www.webindia123.com/personality/men/list.asp
I only went through the top 20, because Ganesh wouldn't rank any lower than that, right?

Hahaha, true that!

I think you found the prettiest one. IMHO.

Did you read the article with the pictures? This guy was discovered IN A DISCOTHEQUE! He was probably hanging out with Raziel! :D

[zsomeone.livejournal.com]

Ha, yeah I got the right guy for sure!

I may try Raz, based on those pics you linked me, but no gaurantees I'll get to it. And I've never drawn a female in anything but canon style... scary.

Gotta go kill ants not.

Dude, you've totally brought Mythklok to a halt! I wanted to get in a chapter this morning, but I'm totally staring at Ganesh instead! :D

Yeah, I'd be really interested to see your version of Raz. As I said, she's one that it's been really difficult for me to get a fix on in my head.

[zsomeone.livejournal.com]

Dude, you've totally brought Mythklok to a halt!
OH SHIT NOOOOOOOO!!!

Fine, I'll take a shot at her. Maybe not today though. But you have to help a bit this time: Is the hair okay in those pics you sent? If not show me the right hair (on anybody). Also, clothes. I'd rather do just a headshot for her so I can try to make her pretty, but some clothes would still show.

I always kind of pictured her sort of as Audrey Hepburn.

I've mentioned several times that she has long hair (long enough to French braid), so I think the one thing is that Audrey Tautou tends to wear her hair short. So more like:

She tends to wear ridiculous things, like this one I used for one of the fics:

This was the one I picked as her wedding gown:

(since you could go winged)

This is the show where she got the idea that ski goggles were couture:

I always kind of pictured her sort of as Audrey Hepburn.

Oh, yeah, Audrey Hepburn would totally work! She tended to have short hair too. But kind of Breakfast at Tiffany's era, with the sunglasses?

[zsomeone.livejournal.com]

There's no way in hell I can draw those dresses. Maybe one of these?

And maybe a color other than black, because with her black hair (or is it brown? shit) that will be difficult.
I think I wanna show at least partial body.

I'm trying to work up something I can use, but it might be a horrible failure yet. Can't tell at this point.

[tikific.livejournal.com]

Ooo, those dresses are pretty! Yeah, I can totally see her wearing those to a charity dealo.

I've always thought the hair was way dark brown-almost-black. I've always been a little vague about it though!

[tikific.livejournal.com]

And since you mentioned Audrey Hepburn, this is her Tiffany's number:

The dress is pretty simple, though there's all that jewelry crap to deal with.

"...still pissed that he had to shave off the beard..."

Funny, I could have sworn you posted another actor you had in mind for him who did have a beard. So that was kind of how I'd been imagining him before anyway. But I've looked back through this and I can't find it.

(I rather like beards...)

[tikific.livejournal.com]

The actor I've had in mind is Naveen Andrews (the bit in The English Patient? Where he lets down his hair? *sigh*), though as I told Z, he's not totally right, as I've said Ganesh is tall. I just think it makes a funnier picture to have Ganesh tall and Charles short. The guy Z found is almost perfect. The one thing weird detail is that I have in my mind Ganesh doesn't wear socks, because he likes to slip off his shoes and wander around barefoot.

[senoritafish.livejournal.com]

Ok, now I remember you mentioned him more than once; I haven't seen the movie, so I guess it didn't stick in my head.

Socks - I like to do that too, except my feet get cold. And I guess if you're a god, you don't have to worry about smelly feet... ;p

Gods wearing socks - for some reason that makes me snerk...

[tikific.livejournal.com]

And I guess if you're a god, you don't have to worry about smelly feet... ;p

Hahaha! Did you see Sprited Away? Kind of made me think of that stinky river god.

Oh, I was also going to say, I don't know how far you've read, but in the recent chapters, I had a bit where Ganesh grows a beard and everybody tells him it's a bad idea.

[senoritafish.livejournal.com]

I'm pretty much caught up except for what you just posted, I think - yup, that's kind of what I was referring to. I wouldn't have. ;)

Yup, the stink god. Wearing socks. Maybe with sock garters. Those have been coming up in BB a lot lately, so I've gotten them on the brain. But thank you for that mental image. Oh dear...
