Too short? If you mean Wally Szczerbiak, he's 6'7". If anything, he's too TALL for Guts (Guts is ~6'4" according to a recent stat in YA, thanks Aaz). Apart from that, what visual cues make you think he's too short? What's your frame of reference, Donnie?NightCrawler said:And the most obvious point, he's too damn short!
Few problems here. a) Rutger Hauer doesn't look anything like Guts to begin with... b) Lundgren was born in 1957. So, he's now teetering on 50. c) The "perfect" chin? Lundgren has a square jaw, so much so that I can literally hear Jay Leno frothing at the mouth in jealousy. Besides, it's too defined for Guts. Guts' face is far more sinuous.Personally i would've chosen Dolph Lundgren as The Punisher for the model (body & face), he looks like a younger Rutger Hauer, and has the perfect chin and that natural washed out expression for Guts.
NightCrawler said:It doesn't look like Guts too me, he seems too young and pretty, needs more scars and "roughness".
NightCrawler said:Aazealh i don't know what are your standards for beauty, but i don't think Guts is that handsome.
NightCrawler said:when i mentioned Dolph Lundgren i was talking about his Punisher character, and if you saw that movie you know what was my point. Dolph in that movie has a rough, scared and dirty look, and deep vengeafull eyes
NightCrawler said:(some small asian dude cosplaying)
NightCrawler said:Oh, and Rutger Hauer was just a small reference (albeit a dubious one) much like that actor was a model for Miura.
NightCrawler said:In the end, i still think Dolph's chin gives him that somewhat sarcastic edge, oposed to the boyish looks on Szczerbiak.
CnC said:I think the hieght problem would go away when you take away what we're relating it to. Perhaps shrink the size of the background or the plants?
Since he's in front of a black background mostly you could probably get away with a little transforms.
"Griffith No More!" said:What problem, though? You're telling me those plants make him look unbelievable at a rather meager 6'4"? It's totally relative. He could be 10 feet tall in that shot for all one can tell, but people obviously don't think that way.
