Heh. Just remembered this. I've always said that if anyone ever plays (Marvel Comics' character, and the girl in my avatar) Illyana Rasputin in a film, it should be Anna Kournikova, and, well, I just had to prove it, didn't I? ;D The hardest piece of photo manipulation I've ever done, but I believe my point is proved ;D

Curious Elliot. What kind of photo manipulation did you do? The horns I know but anything else? Good job. Shan

The background, Shan. I needed something to show the blood red skies and stark rocky landscape of Limbo - Illyana's demon-filled home-away-from-home The goat horns were murder to add, but the skies were surprisingly easy - I found a picture of sunset in Arizona, and it was perfect! Right bare rocky landscape, and you can see the blood red skies Anna was on a beach in bright sunlight - which would never do for Illyana Not bad, I think, for MSPaint

Elliot, if you did all of that with MS Paint, you did a fantastic job. I've never been to impressed with it for jobs like what you accomplished with it. Yeah, she would make a good Illyana. Shan

ROFL janggut ;D *** Shan - the first time I saw Anna, I would have sworn she was Illyana stepped right out of the pages of the comics. She still seems that way, now

What are your plans for the pic, Elliot? Shan

Plans? Errr... None really, Shan. Did it for my own amusement

After all of that hard work, you really should find some way of using it. Maybe turn her into a game character or something? Shan

I think the main reasons I created it were: 1. To see if I could. 2. To prove that Anna really was THE perfect choice to play Illyana I didn't realy think much beyond that. I used it as an avatar for a while at HR, but then decided to use a 'universal' avatar, and on sites where the majority of people have no idea who or what illyana is, it could be a LITTLE hard to explain an Anna with horns against a blood red sky... ;D Doesn't mean I don't like my 'photograph' of 'Illyana' - on the contrary, I am rather proud of it

I know what you mean, Elliot. I've done alot of pictures that way just to see if I could do it or to see what they would look like if I changed them some. Image manipulation is something that I enjoy doing. Shan

And my guess is that you're having so much fun doing it, Phil. So much that you'll even do it some more. Shan
