On all the covers I've seen it's a drawing.
That said the artist might have used someone as a base model.
Boris Vallejo always used real people to base his covers on.
Often himself and his wife.

Jason Isaacs fits best as Marcone.
I see him much more as a Nicodemus.  Marcone is described as more of gentle handed uncle sort in appearance; as a man who looks like he would apoligize for the nessecity just before he shot you in the head.  Jason Isaacs is a little too reptilian.  He's a man you would never forget is a villian to the bone.  Marcone is far more subtle, and lets you forget it sometimes.   

Im sticking with Ed Quinn as Marcone

Anyone else watching Primeval, and if so, do you reckon the future-predator-bat things would make good Red Court ?

kittensgame, Sandcastle Builder, Homestuck, Welcome to Night Vale, Civ III, lots of print genre SF, and old-school SATT gaming if I had the time.  Also Pandemic Legacy is the best game ever.

I don't think that the Red Court is going to be a problem... it's the individual People

should be mostly self-explanatory, if you can provide a movie reference for people who may not know all the names, i think it'd be easier

i'll start with

Liam Neeson (Batman Begins)-Nicodemus
This is where i stand. I can do no other.
Entropy magic+ Earth magic+ sweater vests= badass assassin= badassassin

No, Liam Nesson has to play Malcolm Dresden so he can't play Nicodemus... can he? ;)

I vote Brooklyn Decker as Molly.

How about Lady Gaga as Bianca, so we can kill it with fire.
