Quiet on the War Front (Project Update)

Still no news from the studio on the application I've sent, but no worries for me because I'm diligently studying finals.

As for the CG project, I was considering the potential individuals to reference for the models and came to a selection on one of the two.

To represent my favorite character in Atlas Shrugged, my choice was the actor/singer Jared Leto. I'll provide the book's description of Francisco D'Anconia and afterwards an image of Mr.Leto.

Nobody described his appearance as Latin, yet the word applied to him, not in its present, but in its original sense, not pertaining to Spain, but to ancient Rome. His body seemed designed as an excercise in consistency of style, a style made of gauntness, of tight flesh, of long legs and swift movements. His features had the fine precision of a sculpture. His hair was black and straight, swept back. The suntan of his skin intensified the color of his eyes: they were a pure, clear blue. His face was open, its rapid changes of expression reflecting whatever he felt, as if he had nothing to hide. The blue eyes were still and changeless, never giving a hint of what he thought.

Another reason why I chose Jared Leto was because his performance in the film Lord of War displays many of the mannerisms held by the character Francisco D'Anconia.

Now to search for an actress that resembles Atlas Shrugged's protaganist Miss Dagny Taggart.
