I've run out of decent photos for one character, and I've been thinking for a while that I wouldn't mind changing his look just a little. It's the sort of character I won't change unless it's exactly right, so I'm coming up against brick walls...
I'm looking for a guy, of about forty. Can't be too clean-looking, should give the impression they've done their fair share of wood chopping, the character is the son of a farmer, turned educator.. myess indeed, his Headmasterness himself, not that it stops him spending half his time trimming trees on the grounds.
So a strongish looking bloke, not grey yet, but starting to age. Open, honest, a bit of a joker, much grinning... the sort of bloke you can imagine painting racing stripes on a herd of cattle to see if they run faster. Pretty informal sort of chap, talks with his mouth full on dates.. you get the idea.
If anyone can help me, much love and cookies I swear.. if anyone even UNDERSTOOD that, you may call yourself a genius. I hope we have geniuses on RPGD...
Sean Bean maybe?
Or Viggo Mortenson? (I probably spelled that wrong.)
James Marsters.
Oh, wait. This isn't a contest for the sexiest man over forty? My bad ;)
I do think he'd suit, though, at least given what you've said. I'll also second Sean Bean and throw in a Clive Owen.
I second Matthew Fox and Sean Bean.
Josh Holloway might work too.
Yeah, Sean Bean rocks. How about Mel Gibson?
