Graphics and icons.
18 graphics featuring Mélanie Laurent/Daniel Brühl, Shosanna/Fredrick, August Diehl/Diane Kruger, and August Diehl/Léa Seydoux. All varying sizes. Some profanity and nudity, so NSFW.

All thumbnails, clicky to see full-size:
Twelve various icons featuring Léa Seydoux, August Diehl/Léa Seydoux, Shosanna/Fredrick, Shosanna Dreyfus, Fredrick Zoller, and Dieter/Charlotte. A few are previous icons I had made and have since re-vamped, because I'm fussy like that. One icon has nudity, so NSFW.

Notes:
- Icon #1 just because I love that guy's face. Best part about that scene.
- Icon #9 was made using a base made by
piecesofalice.
Comments and credit are nice, but above all, enjoy! ♥

I'M PARTICULARLY ENAMORED OF 6 AND 12
no subject
YOU KNOW, I ALWAYS LOVE YOUR ENTHUSIASTIC CAPSLOCKING, AS IT LETS ME KNOW I'M DOING SOMETHING RIGHT, EVEN IF THAT IS PHOTOSHOPPING ATTRACTIVE EUROPEANS.

There's something I wonder about both Daniel and August, which is why is it that only now, with the two of them in their thirties, do they actually look like grown-ups? They both have portraits of themselves locked away in the same attic, I think.

Oh, and I thought of you recently, as I had read a little interview with Daniel about his new film, which is Spanish. He was saying that as much as he supported Germany during the World Cup and how talented they are, he recognizes that Spain really did deserve to win.
no subject
He has a Spanish film, aaaaahhhhh ME GUSTA (no, I never tire of saying that). And ugh, I totally agree. Although I'm pretty sure by the next World Cup I'll be very torn since Germany has such a young and talented team that would probably be at its best 3 years from now. They really could win. /ramble.
no subject
He does! He also began filming another one with Benicio Del Toro that sounds like a Spanish version of Paris Je T'aime, with various Spanish actors on board. I hope there are more hilarious videos taken of Daniel watching the next World Cup. Just because.
Also, I am excited that you found Die kommenden Tage! I got through the first half of it (I should have been sleeping instead of staying up watching it) and I'm already feeling too much over what I had seen so far, especially concerning Hans. August and Johanna are so fantastic together. I know August considered his role as Konstantin to be a gift.

I got your letter, thank you, and I'm going to reply in the next few days!;)

Oh, how you flatter me! It means a lot, coming from you, it really does! I'm too enamored with the theme we're currently working with of Mélanie/Daniel/Shosanna/Fredrick, so I think Diane should totally have her own, because she's that fabulous.
I'm so glad you got my e-mail, and I very much look forward to your reply! ♥

I suppose I just them love too much to let go! And fortunately for me, a good friend of mine recently watched IB and she loves Shosanna/Fredrick and the whole Mélanie/Daniel dynamic, so I'll basically never stop.
Oh, and I had been wanting to share these with you:
My dear
Eye-sex at the press conference
Eying each other at the photocall
And she watches as he leaves
Idk, this is just adorable

Their interactions are so subtle yet so lovely. Aww, I love the last one - I'm sure she really thought 'what about moi?' :)
no subject
They really are. As much of a crackpot as I sound, it really fits with how private they are (especially Daniel, which is understandable). I still find it interesting how Mélanie would talk about him generally unprompted in interviews (unlike when she'd be purposely asked about Quentin or Brad, for example), but how Daniel kept that all to himself.
She totally was, when not reminding him of how German he is, of course.

I really love how all of these turned out. The graphics so far, are among my favorites out of what I've made so far. Icons are still a bit tricky, I think (working within such a tiny space requires patience I don't have), but I really like this batch.
I ramble on a bit, don't I? I got Mel's album, btw, and I thought of you! ♥
no subject
awww, that makes me really happy! ♥ I really want to buy the actual CD, but I don't think it's coming out over here, at least not for a while. What I've heard of it at least, I love.
no subject
I can tell though already that I'll be using some of her songs on fanmixes.
no subject
Love. Love. Love what I see!
Seriously? The sexy mofos in graphics 3,5,7, & 9 should totally procreate and fill the earth with
foxygorgeous multi-national babies already, dammit.Just sayin'.
Also, there has to be some Léa/August/Diane fic somewhere! It's like choosing between all three Neapolitan ice cream flavors, (assuming you like all three) NOT POSSIBLE! :'(
Yes, I've been gone, but not my creeperdom, haha.
Much ♥!
no subject
Thank you ♥ The day that my graphics inspire you to vomit is the day I know I'm doing something wrong.
THEY NEED TO. THEY REALLY DO AND EVERY MINUTE THEY SPEND NOT PRO-CREATING WITH EACH OTHER IS A CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY. Those good-looking jerks.
I love Neapolitan ice cream! Except after seeing August with Johanna Wokalek in Die kommenden Tage, I want to throw her in there, too. They're the all German Dan/Mel, as August spoke very highly of Johanna (I think she was the real reason he even made the film) and they have such electric chemistry it's stupid.
Unlike Dan and Bernadette Heerwagen in the same film, which is a shame. I plan on uploading it this week for others to download, because Dan as Hans is making me feel all the feelings. You get to see him shirtless, which is always nice.
Here's some more creeperdom for you: In the CD booklet to Mel's album, she's wearing a robe and has her boob out. I hope Dan has a copy (of course he does, right?).
no subject
Haha. Nah, that's impossible.
Btw, love that new icon!
I gotta agree. Dan spending more and more time with what's-her-face and less with Mel is an atrocity and should be stopped for the sake of mankind. They need to reassure the rest of the world beautiful things can still happen in the midst of all this world conflict - and by beautiful things happening, I mean they should totally have like, a zillion children.
I also agree that Johanna Wokalek should totally be the 4th flavor in that German-Neapolitan mix.
Ok, let's be real, August, Dan, Diane, and Johanna are what make this 4-way Neapolitan ice cream of hotness work, no disrespect to Mel. All three+August are a delicious combintation...Léa and Mel are the only non-Germans to make this even tastier. (wow, big time creeper!)
But, omg I so would love to see this film, even if it's a snippet - and not 'cause Dan's shirtless (I mean, that's always a plus). I'm totally interested in watching August+Johanna's chemistry surge.
Haha, yeah. Mel's defnitely detail-oriented. That's her way of letting us know she's constantly thinking of Dan: she thought of him the entire time that was being shot. Totally.
And, speaking of detail-oriented, it's been a while since I made some zany Mel/Dan manips. I should make that a habit and get a tumblr just to store them. That and making random gifs, which seems to be my favorite pastime. Also, I've been working on a little something for awhile. It's my first time not working with Photoshop, so hopefully it'll turn out good. It is Mel/Dan related as well, hee hee.
no subject
And thank you! After you see the film, you'll wish Hans had a time-machine so he could live happily-ever-after with Sho (and Fred). And if you never thought you'd be attracted to Dan with a scruffy beard and who is blind in one eye, prepare to have your mind blown.
Dan needs to get it together and start baby-making with Mel. How are we to believe in love when they're not doing their part?
Normally, I'd say the more the better, but you just know that Dan and Mel would break off from the group and go do their own thing because they don't share.
And now I want a grindhouse film starring Johanna, Diane, and Léa as a renegade all girl gang who kidnap and repeatedly have their way with August. Because.
Aside from Dan shattering my heart into a billion different pieces, I absolutely ached for Johanna. August is a life-ruiner. And yet, I enjoy seeing him kiss her like he's chewing her face off.
Mel's next album better have a song concerning someone who is German and about how German he is.
You totally should! I keep sharing your stuff with others on LJ and tumblr, so why have a tumblr to put all of your wonderful work (which I would then reblog the hell out of)? Besides, tumblr needs gifs of their Cannes interactions tailored to fit their size specifications, along with more Mel/Dan.
AND I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING WHAT YOU'RE WORKING ON!

Haha, seriously, these are amazing as always. Thank you for being the one source I can rely on when everybody else abandons our lovely doomed ship.

I don't think I'll ever stop, especially when the two of themdo things like this in plain sight of the entire world. Also, one of my dear friends is new to IB and Sho/Fred, and has been contributing with fanart.
no subject
OMG, she's so talented! That's so gorgeous, and Fred is SO ACCURATE I LOVE IT.
no subject
So, until QT feels like sharing, have these:

She is! And Fred's face kills me, it's just so precious.
no subject
Quentin, Quentin, Quentin... he needs to stop being so selfish and rid us of this torment right now.
MOAR EYESEX, yayyyy! I'm in gif heaven! And the third one...poor Melanie. Now she knows how we feel.
(And I saw a picture of Dan and some girl at an event and someone told me it was his girlfriend. I was pretty crushed but I won't lose hope until you tell me it's true :P)
She observed his facial expressions (and the hair!) really well, and it came out perfect.
no subject
Melanie and Daniel need to get over whatever their problem is and just live happily-ever-after together. Even though their on-set shenanigans and her praise of him could tide me over for another fifty years, I need something more to happen (because clearly, I know what's best for everyone, including attractive European actors).
She is his girlfriend, but until he puts a ring on it, I'm not going to care. When Daniel's father died last year, he pretty much became a hermit. His public appearance in February, for the premiere of his film about soccer, was the first he was seen out and about, and with her. She's a twenty-three year old psychology student, and age difference aside, I don't think it's going to last. Daniel's thrown himself into his work lately and I think he just wants to deal with his grief and part of that, I'm sure, involves not wanting to be alone right now.
I'm thinking that Daniel and Melanie are going to be the German/French equivalent of Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz.
Yes! She has an eye for being able to capture features and attributes really well. She also drew this one for me this past Thursday. It was the result of talking about the height difference between Fredrick and Shosanna and how, if she needed/wanted to comfort him, he'd have to bend over quite a bit. Also, we determined that he refers to her breasts as, "Mes amis."
no subject
praiseblame Quentin for that.Of course you do! Dan and Mel clearly need to create a livejournal account as soon as possible.
That was so sad. He's not a partying celebrity at all anyway, he never seems to be around, so his father's death must have made him even more hard to spot.
How old is she? I don't want to be mean or anything, I'm happy as long as Dan's happy but I'm not gonna lie, I wouldn't feel anything if they broke up /creeper mode on. again. i need to stop making decisions for him.
I'll bow down to Javier, but I can't stand Penelope. I have no idea why, I just... I can't bring myself to like her no matter what movie of hers I watch. I don't know. (And her being on the new Pirates Of The Caribbean movie doesn't help at all. I never liked any of Johnny Depp's female co-stars. Call it jealousy or whatever).
Her observance really is incredible. I like the detailed uniform too (I sure loved that uniform on Dan).
no subject
Mel said she doesn't go online because she's afraid of what people say about her. After making IB and releasing her album, she's been declared the most unpopular actress in France right now. Dan needs to comfort her. Because. Of course, if they did both have LJs, they wouldn't have to worry about harsh criticisms (at least if they just friended me /creeper).
It is. I suppose I'm sort of amazed that he was able to stay so private in all that time (I think in terms of the kind of attention Hollywood actors receive, and it'd be damn near impossible for most of them to stay in hiding). She's 23. Idk, I wonder how he was able to meet her, let alone get involved. It just seems sudden, I guess? He has been talking, much like Mel has recently, about how he wants to settle down and have children, too.
I can't stand her either, but I do love their whole love story. It's just so cinematic, of being friends with someone that later, after you've both been through other relationships, you fall in love with. As for Johnny, Winona and the gal in Cry-Baby were my favorite co-stars of his, as I enjoyed them in other films, too. Can't lie, but I find most of Dan's female co-stars to be lacking, barring Mel and Julia Jentsch.
I absolutely love her style. She's enamored with Loki and Darcy from Thor right now, but she's going to keep drawing Sho/Fred (and maybe more Dieter/Bridget). Dan was just beautiful in that uniform. I kind of regret him having to burn the tunic in KFAD, as I have plans for an encounter between them involving that red dress.
no subject
I think it's probably because they're not in the States for most of the time. I don't think the paparazzi in Europe is as crazy as the ones in America.
Fine then, why don't they just go ahead and settle down and make babies even prettier than Augusta Diehl?
It is kind of adorable, I agree. It would be much of a healthier relationship too, when you know the person so well. I totally forgot about Helena Bonham Carter, though! She's the only female co-star of his I love, and that's because I know she's Tim Burton's wife.
Oh, good of you to remind me to read KFAD! I (kind of) abandoned livejournal for a while and I probably missed it, I should check it out as we speak.
no subject
That's what I figured. Even the most minor celebrity here will have their daily routine photographed if possible by the paparazzi. They were a bit obnoxious when she filmed in LA with Ewan for The Beginners, and when Goodbye Lenin! premiered in New York, it was probably the most press Dan dealt with at that point in his career. I'm glad that he's been able to have his space with this, I really am.
They need to think of the future of European cinema and get started on creating the next generation. Then I can grow old as a crazy lady and follow their career, too.
It probably really helps to be involved with someone who knows what it's like to have that kind of life and career. Dan's former fiancee worked with him before, too. Aside from her cheating on him and that whole thing falling apart publicly, they certainly seemed to be very enamored with each other. I can't recall, did you see when Tim and Dan were on the Cannes jury together in 2006? They ended up awarding the Palme d'Or to a film Mel was in, actually. His film Salvador premiered there, along with another film of hers (one in which she was nude). So, they were both at Cannes that year and crossed paths film-wise.
Ah, I'm glad to be of inadvertent help! I have other writing projects very much demanding my attention, but I'm making sure to get KFAD finished this year. I'm working on part 10 and will have a character reference post for it, now that the Zoller sisters are finally appearing in the story. I'm excited for the direction it's taking.
