Okay, so i have spent hours searching for images on the web to make a cover image for an SGA story i have had in my head for over a year now.
I figured if i made an image, it might inspire me to write it...which in a weird way it has because this is so bloody frustrating!
I've got a couple which are perfect.  What I need now is an image of Rodney (/David Hewlett) looking kinda dark? Its rather a dark story in which Rodney takes on creature of the night-ish tendencies... Anyway i cant find any good quality images of DH (anything from Clutch would work but all the ones i found arent particularly high quality).  I also like this image and a few others from Darklight, but again, not really good enough quality to go with the other images.  A bit bloodied up would be good? or even just kinda a striking photo, like blue eyes or goodlighting (not to bright, kinda shadow-y) or something......... Argh its driving me mad, i cant think of any SGA episodes where there'd be relevant images... Help?!

Also one of Sheppard on his knees (like in Submersion or season 2 two-parter, the hive???), or looking shocked/horrified or both would be helpful.... :)

This is driving me nuts.

I was also looking for a photo of an anonomous original character, male, he had to look kinda scary but attractive at the same time, and again dark lighting would have helped...pretty much given up on that one though....

*wanders away to bash her head against a brick wall*

So I've pieced together a rough image/cover pic for my yet to be penned SGA story (also pairing yet to be decided, we've got the options of gen, McShep & McKay/MaleOC or McKay/Female OC)
Its nowhere near as pretty as I wanted, so I shall hunt for better photos and the such and try and improve my completely inadequate photo manip skills.
Also, the title is likely to change, I kinda like the idea of 'Something wicked this way comes'... but it seems a little ott??

Anyway:


I kinda wish I'd left a little bit of colour in Sheppard and McKay (top left)
As for the other characters, the male is named Yante, but he'd supposed to be a bit older (actually being an Ancient so like thousands of years old), but I kinda like the idea of looking young but being old...
The pretty lady in the corner, (whose showing us a bit too much...?)  is Karrai, also older than she appears but not as much so as Yante.  Rodney is the latest addition to their 'group'.
God I want to write this so much, but it would be epic and I dont think I could do it justice.... *sigh*
