Generally I pick my PBs based on (1) do I like how their face looks, and (2) do they have more than a single photoshoot worth of pictures.
THAT BEING SAID, I have a just a few that I was more ~particular about.
@"Helga Scamander" — In hindsight I realized that I unconsciously took a lot of inspiration from Lydia Bennet from Pride and Prejudice when crafting her personality, and after spending a month binging Victoria with Jenna Coleman as Queen Victoria, I stumbled across Death Comes to Pemberly where Jenna Coleman played Lydia Bennet. Naturally I was convinced that Jenna was the perfect Helga!
Justice Rookwood — My 2018 obsession with Anne With An E. Anyone can tell you about it. If I had discovered AWAE now, I probably would have never made Justice and instead used Lucas Zumann as Cameron's PB, but fortunately Justice had a chance to exist :P
As a general rule I don't like using PBs that I've seen in a lot of shows/movies because I'll struggle to separate my character from the PB's prior roles when deciding personality traits. I've legitimately never seen Handsome Whitledge's PB (Ansel Elgort) in anything and the first time I heard his voice I made a weird face and turned it off. I think that's why I use a lot more models than other people might, they're like blank canvasses xD
