Doppelganger

DNA might be unique but our appearances are less so. Our faces and physiques are made up of a myriad little bits and pieces that combine to make us look the way we do. So it follows logically that we might have a few of those features in common with many others.

And it would also make sense that if we were to have many features in common with an unrelated other, there might just be enough for a very close resemblance to be noticeable.

Think of:

Harrison Ford and Nick Faldo;



Samuel L Jackson and Clarence Williams III;



John Howard and Mr Magoo;

So when a mate emailed me recently with news that I have a double out there on the web, I wasn't surprised. He sent an attachment as proof. Unashamedly kidding myself by expecting to see an image of maybe John Malkovich, or some other not-really-good-looking-but-still-very-attractive bloke in the early stages of middle age, I opened it up.No such luck. Instead, my doppelganger turned out to be:











Hardy fucking har. I find this most offensive and objectionable.

Bauhaus 93 and Benguiat Frisky should NEVER be used together.

Try Face Transformer

A very short, slack post today. What were you expecting, the New Yorker?

Anyway, this post comes to you thanks to PomGirl, who provided the link and the inspiration. You’ve just got to try Face Transformer. Here’s how it turned out for us:

This is Lad Litter and TLOML: I’m on the left, silly.

This is Lad Litter and TLOML rendered as Manga characters:

This is Lad Litter and TLOML as if painted by Botticelli:

Face Transformer will also change your face to: its Asian equivalent; its African equivalent; a simian equivalent (plenty of laughs there, but very unflattering!) and more, some of which work better than others.

Here are some suggestions for future options that would make Face Transformer even more fun:

Picasso; The Simpsons; DC Comics; Munch; Van Gogh; Tandberg; and on and on…

To what style would you most like to see your face transformed?
