One Half Brian Blessed, One half Orson Welles, with the beard being not quite there yet.

Thank you Ser. It was just trimmed, so it's about right, but I had to do it myself. Once I have money (IE, once I start getting paychecks for this shit) I'm gonna go to a barber once a month to get trims so I can keep it growing and even.

And yeah... I basically am stuck with either, A, grin, and with my high cheek bones, I either look ridiculously high or like a cartoon, OR, B, scowl or neutral, which still looks like a straight faced annoyance, and people who take pictures like that online tend to be creeps.

Hurrah for Captain Morgan rum!

I don't have a webcam but I do have an older photo of me with no make-up, making an absolute tit of myself so I figure that will suffice.

Spoiler: I have much better hair now. Also, look how manly my hands are, arm-wrestle anyone?

I'm just weird, not creepy.
On the other hand, my "A" face simply shows too much age; I have way too much fun with life.
Forced smiles and grins are pretty creepy on me, however.

 

[trollnystan]

Touché.

Also, "cute" is "sexy" to some people.

You be pretty ^^

Not to sound incredibly creepy when I say this. However when I saw those pics I just went
"CUUUUTTTEEE".

Sorry bout that -hangs head in shame-

ok...you m'dear get two thumbs up...

1) cuz you're a cutie and we all like to hear that

2) your "sexy one" was funny...made me laugh...

Who said that was a compliment?

 

[ToxicOranges]

Take a picture of yourself EXACTLY as you look right at this moment.

So this means....no make-up (touching up at least, it's fine if you already have some on), no photoshop, no brushing out your hair, changing clothes or even moving from where you are.

Be brave, my fellow escapists and have fun. We're all going to look disheveled so there's no shame!

EDIT: Pfft....forgot to add my img for the challenge.

Spoiler

EDIT 2: Guys, seriously...I posted this for the fun of seeing what kinds of people were here. I added the unaltered thing because let's face it, when we're at our computers being lazy fucks in the middle of the night, we tend to expose what we really look like. I prefer attaching faces over s/ns and I'm sorry that some of you think that this is solely to be an attention whore thread...but that was never my intention.

My god... a girl? On the internet?! Take that mask off! Expose the lies! There are no girls on the internet!

 

[Seabear]

This photo required bribery.

Ooooh this sounds fun

Buuuuuuuuuut...

Well my camera is in a faraway magical place right now, but I do have this one from a while ago.

Basically that but with messier slightly shorter hair and tidier stubble... And a scarf... And less girly-lookingness...

Spoiler

And just because I am INCREDIBLY sexy!

Spoiler

I just can't keep the girls off me

I just can't keep the girls off me

This is probably the antithesis of your intent, but I've just discovered that blue eyes make me gay.

...

No, but seriously. Damn. Dude. I don't know if it's the lighting or what, but those fuckers jump out at you.

WARNING! WARNING! Faulty compliment loaded. EGOBOOST initiating emergency override.

Thanks for bursting my little dream bubble! D,=

*Eyeroll* Seriously? If I was a girl, you wouldn't take offence; it's because I'm a dude that it's assumed I must be implying you're doing this to seek male attention. Honestly if it was a hot guy I would be equally likely to assume he was showing off.

No actually. I've called out real attention whores and a lot of girls tend to get on the case of them too because they make the rest of us look bad. If you were a girl, I'd assume just the same.

Well good then. Neither of us are sexist.
But I will bet a million dollars/pounds/euro/yen/rubles/rupees that you made this thread to feed your deep dark narcissistic desires. If not through direct compliments, then to ensure you're one of the prettiest girls around the site. Search your feelings, you know it to be true.

I for one, actually like attaching faces to s/ns rather than icons (such a strange thing to ask for on the internet where the whole point is being anon 24/7, I guess). If I was fishing for compliments I would post my pictures more here and on other places. This is the 2nd time I've ever posted a picture of myself for this site and it was for a thread similar to this, asking for pics of community members. That thread was what inspired me to make this one because it was cool to see all the different types of people that came to the site.

The only other place that has pics of me outside of facebook is dA because it has my cosplay gallery.

I've seen much prettier gamer girls than me, both on this site and off. Hell, just look at ANY booth babe at a con. Their bods burn me up and leave me a pile of ashes...and I'm straight for crying out loud.

while Im not familiar with the whole "booth babe" thing, are they actually what you would consider a "real" girl gamer as opaosed to say a normal girl who happens to like games? I mean arnt they paid or somthing

anyway an interesting fact regard attractiveness, we over estimate it, our brain warps what we see in the mirror to be more attractive

so if you look terrible in a photo..its not the camera..its YOU

so then I realised...oh shit...I look like THAT (and for some weird reason I cant smile in photos)


and hey I will say we are all have a little narssicm at heart (ill be the first to admit) its human nature,

and I somtimes...only for a second now and agian feel a little narsicistic over the girl gamer thing...just a bit

C'mon, are you seriously telling me that you're actually going to remember anyone's face from this thread? Or that you're going to constantly have this thread open and cross-reference people's posts with their pictures? And why would it have to be candid and unaltered in that case? It just don't add up.

It makes a lot more sense that the other thread inspired you to make this one because you got like 10+ responses about how cute you looked. And who doesn't like to be told that? At the very least you wanted to see how hot the guys are who have been complimenting you.

Generally booth babes don't post on the Escapist. And they probably wouldn't look half as good unaltered. So you've got a very wide home-field advantage over them. I'm sure there's a part of you that's calculated all this. Admit it!

you forgot the most important point about booth babes - the fact that they are usually paid models and not gamers.

Haha thanks man

Well I do get compliments on them fuckers a lot, but they generally look far more grey than that, but in the lighting they really buff up
