extended cast loose fancasting

part 2 of my loose fancast/fc list, see pt 1 for main cast and my steps. not Fully there but they all do have the energy I'm looking for to a strong degree that i can then tweak when I draw them. Some fcs I did not find first and simply adopted from others (see below)

Sentinel - Sean Patrick Thomas (with higher cheekbones. i esp like the grey in his beard to match his temples in his boys gen v role)

buuuut honorable mention to Ellia Green who is an actual trans man that retired from his rugby career to transition and became a dad during that time (ty for finding him @cigarettesandinevitablebetrayal <3)

Blaze - 90s Alfred Molina (i know it does diverge a little from the description of him having "hair as fastidiously maintained as ortega's" in retri ch 16 BUT chen does deserve a decent heartthrob to have had a brief thing with while still being in arguably discount ricardo territory lol)

Halabi - actually having second thoughts on Sreemoye Chattoraj (Bengali Indian, left) whom I used for the first Halabi art I did and being an indecisive mf taking aspects instead from Sabah Jazairi (middle, Syrian)? and then the wildcard of Shohreh Aghdashloo (right, actually Iranian) who I do sometimes think of as a fun voiceclaim for halabi lol and the deepset eyes. either way i do picture halabi as a mid-plus sized hijabi with moles, deepset eyes emphasized by kohl eyeliner, full apple cheeks and the frown lines around the mouth + just generally fuller faced the way Sreemoye is in the below pic. still workshopping her face but swana/desi aunty energy for sure.

Sunstream - Auli'i Cravalho (matches up with the wavy hair thing and imo she'd look pretty cool with the faintly glowing eyes)

Pyroclast - Brett Goldstein (@pyroclaststan thank you this guy's an excellent nazar o7)

Locus - Ayo Edebiri (i don't think i need to say anymore just look at her)

Mia - Brianne Tju (short hair or bob with minimal makeup for Mia always, just hard to find more Tju outside of the film these are from w/o makeup and/or long hair lmao)

Ways to Straighten your Teeth in Brooklyn, NY

A straight set of teeth can make a person look younger and more confident. There are many ways to straighten teeth, but the most popular is braces. Braces are metal brackets that are attached to your teeth with elastic bands or wires. The brackets and the elastic bands or wires move your teeth into place over time. You will have to wear them for several months or years depending on how crooked your teeth are and how long they need to be moved.

Ways for straightening your teeth in Brooklyn, NY-

Clear Ceramic Braces-

Ceramic braces are a type of self-ligating style of braces, which is a system within each bracket that holds and maintains tension on the archwire to gradually put pressure on the teeth to shift them into alignment. With traditional braces, elastic bands would accomplish this task.

Benefits of ceramic braces include being less visible than traditional braces because they come in clear or natural tooth color. You can also choose different colors. The brackets are smaller to decrease potential discomfort. They are also quicker to bond and remove, making orthodontist appointments shorter.

Lingual Braces-

Lingual braces work basically the same way as other options for straightening teeth by gradually shifting teeth into alignment by putting pressure on them after bonding. However, lingual braces are bonded to the back of your teeth instead of the front like traditional metal braces.

Lingual braces are not as noticeable because they are bonded to the back of the teeth, so you don’t have to feel anxiety about smiling.

Damon Braces-

Damon braces are yet another type of self-ligating braces that work via the brackets holding the archwire in place instead of elastics, offering patients more efficiency and comfort throughout treatment.

Brackets can be any color, including natural tooth color. Other benefits include better facial balance and less friction in the mouth, easier to clean, and fewer orthodontist visits.

Invisalign-

Invisalign® is a set of removable clear aligner trays that fit over your teeth. Each set is made using multiple layers of medical-grade plastic. Made to specifically fit your teeth, the aligners feature rounded edges for maximum comfort. Just like braces, an impression of your teeth helps the orthodontist create your aligners. You will then wear your aligners for up to 22 hours every day. After two weeks, you will switch to a new set to begin the next stage of shifting.

AcceleDent-

AcceleDent® is one of the latest orthodontic tools available today. AcceleDent® is a hands-free device a patient uses for 20 minutes a day to deliver micro pulses that stimulate tooth movement. Invisalign® and braces work by gradually shifting teeth into alignment. Adding AcceleDent® to your daily routine can speed up the process.
