Elysian Icons

Note: I had picked Shanina Shaik out for a personal rpg character, but somehow she just didn't quite... fit. So I hope somebody else can use her, because she's just lovely.

Note: I really enjoyed looking for photos of her. I may go back and dig up some screencaps of her Bollywood stuff to make more icons out of, because there just are not enough photos of her in traditional dress, which I think accents her beauty so much.

Note: Another pin-up model/burlesque dancer. She looks alarmingly like Dita Von Teese in some of these photos and I swear by all things, (since all photos were taken from Vienna's site) that not a one of them is Dita.

Note: I have a thing for burlesque dancers I think. They just have a classic elegant beauty to them that I can't get enough of. Expect more as I find ones that pique my interest. As for Gwendoline, I think it's her hair.

Note: I've stopped doing black borders. I used to really like them, now I don't so much have an opinion on them anymore. Anyway, as I've probably said before, I really like iconing her. She's beautiful, even if some of her picture sets are on the odd side.

Note: 3rd set. I still continue to find more iconable pictures of Dita and I absolutely love iconing her.

Note: Thin black border on all. This is a second set. There will probably be one or two more sets as I have more originals to dig through yet. From now on, for simplicities sake, if I have more than 120 icons of someone, I'm breaking it into two or more posts.

Note: Thin black border on all. If you saw me, you'd think it was a riot that I read Gothic Beauty with regularity. I am probably the most vanilla looking girl on the planet that goes to goth bars and stuff. Anyway, that's where I saw Drastique and I love her with a similar love that I have for Dita Von Teese, though not nearly as strong. I don't know who the model is in 27-33 with her, but it looks like someone who could pass for a younger Dita if that's something you need. In 47-49 she is holding a white apple, and there really was no way to bring it out any better. I suppose it could be colorized if someone wants.

There will be more sets in the future, this is just a small sampling.

I've really let my fellow Asian females down - I haven't done a set on any of them yet and I'm the one who gets annoyed with seeing Lucy Liu/Gong Li/the Crouching Tiger chics being used for every Asian female character. Enough ranting - here is an icon set.

Shin Eun Kyung is a Korean actress, and most of this pics were from the movies "My Wife is a Gangster 1 & 2." She looks the part of a gangster, so that was why I was very disappointed when they replaced her in the third movie.

I really wish there were more icons of her... She's a lovely change from the usual Aishwarya Rai/etc. Lakshmi is Bangladeshi Indian.

Photoshoots and some screencaps from Cleopatra. Expect more, as there is some self-interest involved!

Note: 2nd set. Expect more. I am at the point where I think I have the most Dita iconed photos. I have more of her than anyone else in my photo stores and I keep searching for more. She's gorgeous, I can't help it.

Note: Thin black border on all. I currently use Katy for a pb and honestly, it was her hair that drew me in. In so many pictures it just has this overly frizzy look that makes me giggle like mad. I cannot help it.

Note: Thin black border on all. This is my second set of her. I like models, which I've said before, which I think has to do with my seeing their photographs as a kind of artwork instead of some malnourished pretty girl posing. I think, at this point, I have cleaned out the internet for decent iconable photographs of her. I have about 90 I had to scrap because they didn't icon well at all.

Note: I love Dita. I have this ridiculous stash of pictures from Dita.net, thanks to knowing someone with a paid membership there.. heh. Expect more as time goes on. I have so much love for this woman, it's insane. I'll probably icon Betty Page and Veronica Lake in the future, since that is a majority of who Dita bases her look on.

This is a large batch.

Please note - I do a fair bit of text removal, colour adjustments and some noise-removal for all the bases. As for Yasmin - she's gorgeous, but models tend to have a limited range.

Former Miss Universe who beat Aishwarya Rai in the Miss India competition! Expect more sets in the future.

This set doesn't have a wide range of emotions, as it's difficult to find images of her.
