    A new thread where you can post your lookalikes :)

    Simply find two similarly featured famous people and post a link to their photos here, then we can judge how much they look like each other :grin:

    Here's one to start you off:

    Arsene Wenger and http://www.gillian-cross.co.uk/images/demon4.jpg (The Demon Headmaster)


    Aplogies for the uncut link, I can't seem to get it to go behind a cut :eek:

    I don't know what you're seeing. The hairstyles are clearly different. :p

    EDIT:
    Now the Drew Barrymore one I see. Just thinking about Drew Barrymore when looking at Nalia's picture makes me wonder if they got her to pose for them.

    Actually I've been wanting to point the similarities between these two, for a while.

    You'll only recognise the first one if you play BG2.


    Nalia and Drew Barrymore

    I actually think the small version pic of Nalia looks a lot like Drew but I couldn't find a really good comparison photo.

    That'd be because most of those game portraits were made by drawing them over the pictures of real actors and actresses... some were just more cleverly disguised than others. I've read that a number of NWN portraits had to be recalled after the fact because the real people beneath the fantasy exterior were too obviously visible (or people found the exact pictures the portraits were drawn over). Tsk...

    I tried for similar poses and hair styles.

    So you look like some guy who's been dead quite a few years? :p

    Apparently I look alot like an ex-English football captain whose name escapes me at the moment, or it was some up and coming star or something. *shrug*

    Sadly, I never met my clone (yes CLONE. Not lookalike). At one point during my MS I kept having people I had never seen who would come up to me and engage in conversations over topics I had no idea about. It didn't take long to realise they thought I was someone else, and apparently they couldn't tell the difference even AFTER coming up to me and striking a conversation. This happened several times, and I found the whole thing quite funny eventually. I decided I'd meet the guy just for the fun of it, and see whether we really were so alike. I never did. A few weeks later I learned he'd passed away :(

    This got in my head after seeing a biography on Sean Penn. As he's getting older, he's looking a lot like Robert Deniro.
