call for reference

Hey there me Droogies!

I'm close enough to wrapping up this commission to start working on Stray Bullet again. One thing I've come to appreciate with this project is working from actual reference... most of the characters are actual people, or meant to look like particular ppl.

I think I'd like to do more of this, and I thought it would be worth my while to ask you if there are any people who you think may be a "fit", here.

Pictured above are the photos I based my characters off of. they were all from over a decade ago, so I don't have a large variety or in some cases decent resolutions.

On the left is Dr. Bonito. I think I grabbed these off of DudesOffCampus.com back when it was still a user focused site and not just a pay-wall porn site. I really like this guy's look, but these pics are awful and his likeness has proven very hard to capture... it's easy to make him look not so hot.

Next to him is Grant. These are an 80s/early 90s porn star names Dick Masters. Very little of him online, and it's often just a horrible resolution. Plus Grant has become quite a bit burlier since then... but I chalk that up to being a lycanthrope. It's like doing steroids and testosterone.

In the middle is Jay, the fireman Doug meets in Stray Bullet. Obviously Jason Statham.

Next is Doug. This is what he looked like in Hard to Swallow #2, but he's changed a lot since then too.

On the right is Mitch. He's changed the least, but since he doesn't age, that's appropriate. This character I think I can draw with my toes, so I am not in need of reference for him much.

So here's your homework:

I need Doug reference, and maybe Jay. If there's someone you think could play Doug in a movie and there's lots of great pic of available, run it past me, I want to see them. And for Jay, if there's someone who resembles Statham who isn't him, I would like to see that too!

Add your suggestions in the comments, plz!

Thank you, and happy pride.
