PROMPTS OFFICIALLY CLOSED.
The last time I asked for fanart prompts I came to the horrible realisation that I had no idea how to shade dark skin and went on a quest to draw more dark skinned characters until I got better.
That worked out pretty well, but there's still lots of other holes in my repertoire (I can't get my own body shape right, for example). Beyond the fact this limits me as an Artist, it also contributes to the invisibility of those outside the "default". Fans of these sorts of characters are pretty neglected fanart-wise!
So, I'm looking for prompts for fanart featuring characters who are as many as possible of:
Did I miss anything? Visual fandoms (movies/tv/comics etc) only please, since I am going to need the reference pics not to screw up completely. I'm also trying to get the hang of non-G rated/gen stuff, but nothing above PG please. Nothing too squicky. NO ZOMBIES. EDIT: Some fandoms I'm familiar with, but I'm willing to try something I'm not. EDIT: I don't want suggestions of characters, I want particular images you'd like to see, eg this queerlygen prompt, Saving Face: Wil - babysitting/looking after her sister.
Having just watched "Sleeping Beauty" for the first time I am definitely going to have to try and think of something with Merryweather :)
If any other fanartists see this and are inspired by the prompts or general idea that's all to the good! My tablet is acting up, so I will probably be REALLY slow, and don't guarantee I'll get around to them all.
(*)Unless they are also outside the norm in a realistic way. It might also be fun and educational to do prompts for characters with unrealistically unusual appearances (Wings! Green skin! Tentacles!), but this is not that post.
EDIT: Completed prompts

- darker skinned
- have non-stereotypically european features like epicanthal folds or an afro
- overweight
- under 16 or over 40 (ish)
- visibly disabled or scarred etc.
- Otherwise outside the physical norm for (fan)art in a realistic way (no centaurs :P(*))

I know you said visual fandoms but I'd really really really love to see young (early teen?) Miles stuck in a hospital bed in traction with casts on both legs and being incredibly twitchy because of all the restless physical energy he's built up.
For that matter, one of the later photos with Miles and Mark together at an official function - both 4 feet shorter (?) than all the other males and trying to look like they don't know each other, but with the only difference in their appearance being their respective weights. I'm crap at remembering which book is which but this is when Mark first came to Barryar and is at his largest.
And to take pity on you, something more visual - I'd love to see Zoe from Firefly in Serenity's kitchen because she's been asked to cook and feeling incredibly uncomfortable because it's really not something she feels at home doing. Wash propped up at the table with one arm and one leg heavily bandaged, watching her fondly because his wife loves him so much will even cook for him when he's hurt. :)
Do you know X-Men, either movie or comic-verse? Professor Xavier having an argument with Storm about school curriculum - she's winning.
There :)

EDIT: Crap! I drew Bra'tac instead of Drey'auc! I'm sorry :( Let's assume she's off somewhere to the side paddling her feet in the ocean or something.
