I don't have very many watchers yet, so I doubt I'll have any responses to this journal (except maybe those few people that I am friends with on here).  But as you can see if you look through my gallery, I've been drawing a lot of characters from the Hunger Games lately.

Do you ever re-use character designs??  I mean, I've noticed that I pretty much imagine the same fellow for Sirius Black from HP, Gale from Hunger Games, Crowley from Good Omens... Pretty much any guy with black hair automatically appears in my mind this way.  I mean, sure, the appearance varies here and there depending on the age of the character, but for the most part the features are all the same.  It's going to make things a little awkward when I eventually get a picture of all these characters up in my gallery.

And I was thinking of Glimmer from the Hunger Games.  I kind of pictured her the same way I imagined Fleur Delacour from Harry Potter, and Nicci from the Sword of Truth books.  And since I mentioned Good Omens, my version of Aziraphale is pretty much my Remus Lupin's twin.

It isn't like this for all characters, just some of them.  Sometimes a completely new face will pop into my mind.  But I just wonder if I am the only one who imagines the same familiar face again and again in different stories.

Well, I have recently finished reading the Hunger Games, and I really liked it.  I am not going to see the film, however, until I actually get all the characters drawn.  When I saw Harry Potter for the first time, it was all I could do to retain my original ideas of what the characters should look like.  I don't want that to happen here...  I'm in no rush to see the movie.  I already know I won't like it as much as the books, anyway!  I'd like to at least get myself something to reference from my imagination before I taint it.

Here is the list of characters I plan to draw as a priority:

Prim
Haymitch
Effie
Cinna fav.me/d4y6kj2
Cato
Clove
Rue fav.me/d4vy1lt
Thresh
Foxface
Finnick fav.me/d4v3ew4
Beetee
Wiress fav.me/d4uw25r
Johanna
Katniss
Gale
Peeta

:bulletblack:  Notes:
- I'll probably save Katniss, Gale, and Peeta for last, since they are firmly in my head already.  Peeta is going to be his actor, Josh Hutcherson, as I was pleasantly surprised by that one and he was better than my original idea.


There are a few other characters that I would like to draw (Katniss's mother, Madge, etc) but I do not care if the films influence their appearances in my mind, so they are not important at this time.

So basically, I probably won't bother seeing this movie until it is out for purchase.  And that's all right with me.

Feel free to request somebody from the list above.  It doesn't matter to me what order I do them in, as I will hopefully get to them all eventually.
