I'm not sure if this is the right place to put this but I need help.

I've been here for a little while now and am loving mizahar so far. I love the community and the world, and plan on staying here for a long time. However I have a problem. I created my character without thinking about finding a picture of her first. Now I am unable to find any pictures that really fit her, and I am wondering if anyone has any suggestions for like a specific actor or person that fits the description. My character has bi colored eyes but that can be subject to change as I know that incredibly rare. I would be greatly appreciative of any help anyone is willing to give me on this issue.

Hey there! I'll be happy to help you out since I definitely know what it is like to be in your position. It's always easy to build a character from a picture or a face claim but it's quite difficult doing the opposite (I'm still struggling to find a suitable face for Tanna).

I'd also like to add that I can happily edit the eyes for you so you don't even have to worry about the colour if you happen to find a face you like :)

Bi-colored eyes? Those can be easily edited and there are plenty of people willing to do that. For example, Tanna, who posted before me, or I, myself. If you do need to find a model, there is actually a wonderful tumblr blog dedicated to finding roleplaying models. (Linky)

It's actually where I found the model for Lisana!

I read your description and immediately wondered if an altered photo of Halley Berry might fit.

If that doesn't work, there is also the option of art (with permission from the artist of course) or one that gives permission freely, like such.

If neither of those fits, or if you do like one and would like it modified, give me a shout PM and I'll get you hooked up. :)

Don't forget that if you can't find a model with heterochromia, you can always photoshop the eyes to make them different.

Found a model, thanks to Jessor, for the actor, and got it modified and set up by Tanna. And got some boxcode from Lisana so I am getting all the cool stuff, thanks everyone!
