Description A new series of photo manipulations.

The Seven Endless from Neil Gaiman's Sandman (which I have to upload for some of you - I'll get to it Ása, sorry!)
Each deviation will feature my manipulation, the original photo and a couple of pictures from the comics that I used as reference.

This is actually a little more than simple photo manipulation. I'm trying to come up with actors who could really pull this off and the pictures should resemble character posters for an actual movie series. That's because I'm thinking of adapting Sandman for a movie related RPG I play on [link] . You get to write your own movie, cast it, choose a director etc. and also make your own posters. I've been wanting to adapt Sandman ever since I read issue #1. Richard Kelly (Donnie Darko, Southland Tales) is my choice for directing the series, which should be a trilogy.

Anyway, for Morpheus I had only one choice, there's really no other actor who could do Dream justice. Fiennes has always been one of my favorites, decades before all the geeks around the world discovered him as Voldemort. And I was lucky enough to find a picture that just about screams Morpheus - I only had to mess up the hair a bit, darken the eyes and create the celestial background.

Next up: Death

(ps: yes, I'll continue the Gargoyles photo manipulations too)

You know, I really like Your vision of the endless. Faces and their styles are similar to the oryginal ones from comics.

Yes.

And...yes and no. You can't read them online, but I was going to upload the whole series...but my attempts to do so have so far failed. I'll let you know as soon as I manage to do that.
I'm not even sure you would like it, I mean, I think you would, but it's a little different from the kind of fantasy you're used to. But you should give it a try nonetheless!

Is that RPG the same one you did Extremely Incredibly for?

Anyway, this looks neat. I suppose I have to get that Sandman series eventually...didn't you say you could read it online somewhere?
