Photo Friday: Emulate a Metachatter Make yourself up/dress yourself up/pose in a way that flatters or lightheartedly pokes fun at another member, suggested by seanyboy?

Before postings start, should we do it like a guessing game, or say who it is right off? I think it'd be fun to guess!

I wouldn't be shocked if I was the only one who did this, either. Heee.

These first two were inspired by one mechazen. The second shot gets her pretty well, I just like how the first one turned out.

This is the other Inspired By.

I was truly inspired by the project. I hope I didn't offend. I thought of some more I could have done, but they would have just been immitations, not inspirations. These are clearly me, just me in the style of. . . who?

I didn't do this, mainly 'cause I can't think in this way. I'm really good at imitating peoples mannerisms, but dressing up and stuff? I dunno. Naturally our actress will get this!

I'm thinking the last one is ethylene? Not sure about the first.

Oh damn, you FINALLY do my theme from like 2 years ago and I'm totally caught unawares. I NEED TIME TO GROW MY HAIR OUT! AAAAAUUUGGGGH!

*runs out of the room screaming, frantically trying to will his follicles into overdrive*

I only dressed up and stuff for. . .yeah. . .the ethylene one. That's amazing, I thought the only person who might see it was her.

Awesome, rainbaby. And I completely forgot about this. Sigh.

Did I suggest that?
If so, I've completely forgotten that I did.

I'm thinking the first ones are taz.

posted by elizard 25 April | 11:59

Oh man, I'm so not prepared for this.

posted by rhapsodie 25 April | 12:05

The first ones have not been guessed. I don't have the low light technology she does, so that may be throwing it off. Put the expression in the second one in the setting of the first one, and make it night time, and make the bathroom cooler. No?

Could one be Lori? I'm not thinking of a specific photo, more of an expression thing...

posted by gaspode 25 April | 13:18

Matildaben?

rhapsodie.

Ah geez.

It's the lovely lady that has a penchant for self-portraits in public and private bathrooms. She tends to look down at her viewer and slightly concerned (probably about the shot composition). They were inspired by mygothlaundry. I agree that in the first one, I do have good rhapsodie-like posture for some reason.

Thanks for playing guys.

Somebody else do one!

posted by rainbaby 25 April | 13:47

Damn. I *knew* I'd seen it somewhere before. You did pull it off, rb...we're just dumb.

I thought the bathroom ones were Pie!

posted by Specklet 25 April | 13:50

Argh, I thought it was me and then I thought that I was being all egotistical and stuff so I didn't say anything! Thank you! I think! You look better than me in bathrooms!

And damn, I just now realized that I always do have that same expression on my face in bathroom self portraits. Hee.

posted by mygothlaundry 25 April | 14:17

I also lamed on this one - forgot. But hey, I hereby suggest that everyone do a bathroom (preferably public) self portrait. I like them. They're fun!

posted by mygothlaundry 25 April | 14:19

Hey! I have a public bathroom self portrait!
