My crush with eyeliner  
The other year, at one of my good friend Samantha's birthday meals, the following question was asked to the ladies sat around the table: "Men with eyeliner? Yes or No?". The split was about 50% and personally I was (and still am) firmly in the "Yes" group. So, today I bring you 80 icons of my current favorite eyeliner-wearing man: Noel Fielding


All icons are using my own screencaps taken from episodes of Never Mind The Buzzcocks. Special thanks to [info]qwentoozla.

Snag if you like. Comments are love! Enjoy!

In other news: Samantha and I rocked the Casbah for a second night this Friday passed. Danced almost non-stop for 3.5 hours. At 2:30am, the DJ finally played our request song: REM's It's the End of the Word. Samantha and I owned the dance-floor! Of course, we were very, very drunk...

And finally: I love my new phone :D

That is all.

Nice icons, even tho I have no idea who that is, lol

Hurrah for men with eyeliner! :D

Noel is a British comedian so I'm not surprised you haven't heard of him. I wasn't expecting any of my international virtual friends to have to be honest. Next time, I must do something for you guys - I'm thinking Torchwood wallpapers. Yeah, more Torchwood walls are long overdue!

Thanks for commenting! :D

Thank you very much - really glad you like so many! :D

Not taking any, but I must comment on how wonderful these are. I love how for the first couple dozen, you used the same photo, and showed all of the variations of it. Very beautiful, and well done.
Gem: Noel (moving tribute hat)[info]pkgem_fanart on February 25th, 2008 11:58 pm (UTC)
Thank you very much for commenting anyway - comments are love &hearts
It's realy good to hear people like your work and your lovely comment made my day :D

Your comment = &hearts Thank you!

With regards to the screencaps - I could upload some to photobucket if you wish? I have loads of Buzzcocks ones that I've done - mostly Noel and Simon Amstell. Are you just interested in specific Noel ones that I used for these caps or a bunch in general?
darlaslilgirl: flower! noel[info]darlaslilgirl on February 26th, 2008 10:08 pm (UTC)
thanks, if its possible i would really just love some caps of noel and simon (if you have any) from the best of show.

If you like i can message you details for my 4shared account where you could upload a zip folder if its easier.

OT: *weeps* cant believe simon is gone!..
Gem: Noel (moving tribute hat)[info]pkgem_fanart on March 4th, 2008 11:30 pm (UTC)
Apologies for the delay in getting back to you - I've had a busy weekend!
I have a paid Photobucket account and it has a bulk uploader so I'm going to upload all my caps into that for you. I'm gonna do it tomorrow because it's getting late and I'm already stressing my computer my doing various copies/downloads and conversions - poor thing, lol ;)

I'll reply to this comment again once the caps are available.

With regards to Simon: I'm not at all convinced he has left NMTB. I watched Moving Tribute and it never gave me that impression - it was a joke on himself. The only time it crossed my mind was when I went to the Buzzcocks community and someone has posted an article that states that Simon has "left the safety net of the BBC for stand-up". He has and he did so last year too. That does not mean he's left NMTB - he's simply doing other work in between. It makes no sense for Simon to laeve NMTB right now - it's a good gig for him. It's raising his profile and he's making the show his own. Leaving now would be a bad career move. Honestly, I wouldn't worry about it. I tell you what - if Simon isn't back hosting NMTB later this year, I'll eat one of Noel's hats. So, cheer up! He'll be back.

PS: Yay! You're using one of my icons! I love making them and I love seeing people use them too *is happy* :D
darlaslilgirl: flower! noel[info]darlaslilgirl on March 5th, 2008 07:16 pm (UTC)
hi, thank for the caps, theres no rush on them. Your a star, i &hearts you.

I read somewhere that Simon was leaving to do a tour, but i so hope your right and he stays.

I'll eat one of Noel's hats.
we cant deprive our noel of his hats! lol!

i love it too when people use my icons as well, it gives me a natural high.

Apologies for the delay in getting back to you. I've had nothing but problems with Photobucket's bulk uploader so I've changed tactic. I've zipped my Simon & Noel NMTB caps into a file for you and I'm currrently uploading it to Megaupload. I only have a free account with them though so it's looking like it might take 4hrs to upload! I hope it doesn't take that long to download - the caps aren't that good!
darlaslilgirl: flower! noel[info]darlaslilgirl on March 9th, 2008 07:56 pm (UTC)
Don't worry about the wait for them, I'm sure the caps are great. it shouldn't take 4 hours to d/l them but if it does i don't care, id still have the caps! :)
Gem: NMTB-Simon/Noel (montage)[info]pkgem_fanart on March 9th, 2008 10:47 pm (UTC)
The caps have finally uploaded and are available here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=E3J0POTZ
A lot are quite samey but I hope you like them anyway :D
darlaslilgirl: flower! noel[info]darlaslilgirl on March 10th, 2008 01:41 pm (UTC)
thankyou so much for these. I'm gonna message you in a tic. this thread is getting rather long :P

Nice REM/Courtney Love referencing there...

I'M GOING TO EAT YOU UP, NOEL FIELDING; YOU'RE TOO GORGEOUS.

Yay! Someone got my REM reference :D I wasn't sure if anyone (other than my friend Samantha) would! You win! ;)

Noel is just so lovely isn't he!?
Thanks for commenting :D

Absolutely! There's nothing sexier than a bit of stubble. Stubble and eyeliner *swoons* lol

Sorry girl, but, guys with eyeliner? That's a big no no from me lol In fact, I don't like eyeliner in general, lol

*cought*I don't know who's this Noel either *cought*

But, on the fanart side, great work, and 80 icons !!! I make a dozen and get exhausted, lol
I think my favs are #15, #43, #49 and #74.
Gem: Noel (NMTB - hand on head)[info]pkgem_fanart on February 26th, 2008 12:11 am (UTC)
You know, I would have put money on you being in the 50% that say "no" to eyeliner on men! ;) From your entries, I've worked out that your taste in men is for the more masculine types. I agree in many cases (eg. Gerry) but I do also have a great love for many more adrogynous men such as Noel here.

Noel is a British comedian. He was in some walls in an earlier post I did too. Like I said to [info]ailurophile6 above, my next post is going to be recognisable by my international virtual friends! I'm thinking Torchwood wallpapers. You might approve, now that you're getting into it :p

Thank you for appreciating my artwork (if not my taste in me, lol!). It did take my several sittings to complete!

For that song...? We'd have owned the dancefloor even if sober :-) And taken possession of said dancefloor by force if necessary!

True, True. However, I'm far less inhibited when drunk and enjoy the experience much more. I'll have to email you with regards to our next Big Night Out ;)

Gem: Noel (NMTB - tongue)[info]pkgem_fanart on February 26th, 2008 06:55 pm (UTC)
Of course you can! I make them to share - snag as many as you like
In fact, I see you are using #32 already *is happy* I do love it when I see people using the icons I make - it seems worth the effort somehow - not that staring at pics of Noel for ages took much effort, lol ;)

Thanks for commenting - Really pleased you like that icon :D

you're very welcome, it's beautiful!

thanks for all the work you put into these, they're lovely :)

Noel Fielding!!! The king of eyeliner-wearing surreal comedy! (he is also the king of epic cheekbones! hehe)
Those are some very cool icons indeed!
And is that a Simon Amstell mood theme-hilarious! its a shame there isn't a mood for him on the elevating chair hehe
Gem: Noel (NMTB - hips don't lie)[info]pkgem_fanart on March 4th, 2008 11:49 pm (UTC)
Yes, Noel does have particularly great cheekbones. Even though he has now trimmed his lovely mane, he's still sexy as hell owing a lot to those cheekbones and those gorgeous blue eyes. At least he's not likely to go at those with some scissors!

Thanks for commenting - glad you like the icons.

My moodtheme is by [info]nomorewolfie. It's great isn't it!? But yes, an animated NMTB moodtheme with "the chair" would be fantastic! Great idea! :D

These are nice icons,even if I don't know who the heck is that dude *lol*

So you have a new phone.Which model?
Gem: Noel (NMTB - fave screencap)[info]pkgem_fanart on March 4th, 2008 11:44 pm (UTC)
The lovely Noel Fielding is a British comedian and half of the popular TV/live show "The Mighty Boosh". These caps for these icons though are from his appearances on British Pop Quiz show "Never Mind The Buzzcocks". Thanks for commenting anyway, Taru :D I realise I haven't been to your journal in a while. Or anyone's actually - busy week. I'll be on the case tomorrow though ;)

My new phone is a Sony Walkman W910i in red. It's so pretty! I bought an 8GB card for it and so far it is storing 15hrs of vid clips and 430 mp3s and I still have 4GB left! Huzzah! It's shiny and new and I love it. It will probably break, lol ;p

hi there ! how are you ? :)

ok i still dont know the guy :p and to be honest, i'm not sure to be attracted to men with eyeliner ^^
but i still like your icons, especially 1, 19, 29, 35, 63, 75 !
Gem: Noel (moving tribute hat)[info]pkgem_fanart on March 13th, 2008 07:23 pm (UTC)
Men in eyeliner is an acquired taste... one I've acquired, lol! I think it only suits some men though... Jason Momoa could probably pull it off. Joe Flanigan could if he totally changed his look. David Hewlett... no, it's never going to work for him, lol!

Thank you for appreciating my icons of not my taste in men (this time)! :D

ROFL david hewlett with eyeliner ^^
i've just remembered Keanu Reeves in Little Buddha, he was kinda androgynous in this movie, with eyeliner etc... but god he was so sexy !!! (in my opinion lol)
so i can understand your new taste in men ;)
Gem: Sweeney Todd[info]pkgem_fanart on March 18th, 2008 07:28 pm (UTC)
Keanu in eyeliner! Why have I nevr seen this movie! I'm gonna look that one up. Thanks ;)

Yeah, some guys can pull it off, others can't. Johnny Depp is another example of a guy who looks great in make-up. Even ghoulish make-up. Leaving the cinema after watching Sweeney Todd, I turned to my b/f and said "is it ok to still fancy a guy when they look like a cool and are playing a pschyopath?" He replied that it had better be because he really fancied Helena Bonham Carter in the film and she was just as ghoulish/psycho, lol!
