Lookalikes (not for the 1st time either) Inflate your Upload Space

I'm sure there has been a lookalikes thread concerning the AC faction leaders. I cannot be bothered to look for it. Someone pointed out Star Trek Voyager's Seven of Nine could be Aki Zeta Five a while back, but that is really weak seeing as actress Jeri Ryan looks nothing like Aki. Also kass pointed out an eerily sinister lookalike of Pravin Lal.

Seeing as I have nothing much to contribute here, I am going see if I can find pictures of people I know look like faction leaders and post them on this thread if I can.

So far I am thinking the following...

Model Sophie Dahl vs. Aki Zeta Five
Michael Dorn (Worf without make up) vs. CEO Morgan
Brent Spiner (when in Independence Day) vs. Zakharov
A lot of Muslim terrorists vs. Pravin Lal
(I'm sorry, they all remind me of him!)
I myself can pass for Santiago, I'd like to think.

I will be working on finding appropriate photographs for comparison, again, if I can be bothered.

Alynzia.

(I have a photo taken in Deirdre style like a portrait of me. You can all laugh but it got me 11 replies on an internet dating service!)

Support Apolyton, buy Alpha Centauri

Alynzia,

Please post your Dierde-like picture to this thread! You will probably get a faction named after you, which someone will inevitably point out as being just a copy of the Spartans or the Gaians

BTW, Alynzia, I'd like to make a faction of you if you send the pic AND your playing characteristics + some personality traits (I do a little of psychology).

See, what'd I tell you? If I saw a true look-alike in the streets I'd be so shocked...there's something unusual and outstanding about each leader.

Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

If you de-aged Zak a lot (around 50 years), there's a fair chance he'd look similar to me. Odd, since I don't have a drop of Russian blood.

And of course, Morgan Freeman could pass for Lal or Morgan without the mustache...

No, I'm not a mean one, but I do get carried away sometimes...I was imagining what would happen if/when you posted your picture to the geeky Forums, knowing how so many have big crushes on Deirdre. Now we get to find out....(dah dah daaahhhh *insert suspenseful music here*)

Okay, well I'm not Corazon's clone, or her sister, or her cousin, but I think I look the most like her than any other *pig* on Apolyton. It's a contest, if you look more like another faction leader than I do the Colonel, you win. Are you brave enough to post your pics, Vlad & Cybergod?

Oops! The last one for today. Support Apolyton

I'm sorry, I cross-posted with Smack. You are not mean. I take it back. You know, I'm probably Deirdre when cheeky Zakharov spiked her gene therapy serum with pig DNA. Damn that Zakharov! His technicians claimed he was drunk, but I know it was deliberate!

In my edit, I have altered the 'Is Jeri Ryan more like Aki Zeta Five than Porcine Princess Alynzia?' to include Aki Zeta Five herself. I hope this is of some use!

That is me done until I can find Brent Spiner from Independence Day and Sophie Dahl versus Aki Zeta Five pictures.

Thank you for putting up with me.

Alynzia.

Unfortunately, I don't have a scanner so I can't post you a pic of moi. Actually, I look more like a cross between Svengaard with a haircut and Domai without a moustache (plus a dose years younger...).

Oh yeah, comment on the pictures:

Thank you kindly for the replies. Remove this text

Oh, you lovely people. Thank you for keeping this thread bumped long enough for me to put on my Sophie Dahl and Brent Spiner pictures. I implore you to look at the Brent Spiner one, it is amazingly like our good Academician.

Thank you to kass for putting on your picture. I felt silly doing mine on my own. I may not be Jeri Ryan or Marilyn Monroe but it could be worse, I could be a Sister Miriam Godwinson lookalike. Not that I would mind being a titian beauty like Rynn though *sigh*. Or a titian beauty like Smack who has obviously been busy reinventing gravitational laws to support his hair...

Put in my edit : Aki Zeta Five versus Sophie Dahl.

Aly's done! Put an end to popups!

This is my last lookalike I'm going to post. It's fine that the rest of you lookalikes don't have pics. I am very brave to have posted mine. Thank you for the offer of a custom faction Cybergod, but 'Alynzia's Pig Confederacy' possibly might not be that fun to play.

Okay. Independence Day came out in 1996. Zakharov's portrait was painted then, I am led to believe. The similarity is immense. Does anybody else agree?

The Brent Spiner pic is copyright ID4 Movie CD Encyclopedia, and I procured the image from Eileen Jahna's positively delightful website.

The Brent Spiner vs. Zak comparison is amazing. I don't think Morgan vs. Michael Dorn or Lal vs. Laden are very close though. I don't think I've ever seen anyone look like Lal in real life but to me he looks 1/2 Indian, 1/2 British Colonialist. Could he be Gandi's bastard son?

And what's all this about pigs Alynzia? If you're a Pig, I'm a muppet. Oh wait.....um.....

Nah, it was bad enough in quality... And I hadn't had a haircut in ages, and I was wearing my specs, so you won't know me even if in some way I'd run up on you by the street.
