ALL THE CLOSE CROPS ON BUFFY FACE. ALL OF THEM!

THANK YOU sweetie! (Would you believe I have MORE alts of that image that I didn't post?

And I probably have some on my harddrive that I didn't even put into the folder. That's a classic example of me going berserk with color and light variations. :D I LOVE playing with Sarah's face. TRY AND STOP ME.

This woman is so attractive, help me.

Yes, attractive is the right word - not "candy box pretty" in a conventional sense although she comes close to "conventionally pretty" in season 5(kudos to her stylists that year!). She was still little-girlish in S4 but in S5 - she becomes very elegant and womanly.

Also I wouldn't be interested if she had a "cute little button nose" for instance. I think that has a lot to do with it (and her luminous eyes...stopping now.)

Very happy that you snagged one as your default icon and that you appreciate the stylization and color. (most of the ones I made are more subdued, it's still a challenge for me to work with really bright saturated tones.)

And your other faves are among my favorites too. I LOVE close crop +two. Lips is actually a layering of two or three alt versions (incl alt 18 and one I didn't post here - a paler version of #16 without the text) to get those subtle colors and depth.

Why the made it so straight during S6? WHY?

Different set of stylists? IDK, that was when the show changed to another network so I'd have to check the credits. She also looks very pretty during S4 and I forget that. Because S6 - my favorite Tara for her awesomeness BUT - ugh, the styling, PUH-LEEZ.

I almost didn't post 13 but it breaks my heart too.

And now I'm even more confused! Which one should I pick as default icon? Should I stick with this one with bright colors? Or should I use a b&w one? Or maybe a more natural one? I like them all! I really, really like this image and all the close crops. I don't anything anymore.

She's just super attractive. Lots of it has to do with the fact that I really love her character, Buffy, so I'm attracted also emotionally - which makes the attraction stronger - but she looks so touchable and I'm in love. Send help.

It's really an amazing icon and it reminds me your vamp!Xander/vamp!Willow one because of the colors. It's perfect for me because it has Buffy face in it. <3 <3

You understand me. I get that, maybe, they wanted her to look more maternal and, Idk, grown up? But Amber's a gorgeous lady and she didn't look good sometimes. (Which, again, maybe because the character was so insicure about herself? It does makes sense in a way) I have issues with her hair during S6, instead I love it during S4. She's, IMO, one of the few people in this world who can pull that platinum blonde without looking over-processed. Not even Sarah manages to do that.
