I have been messing around with Photoshop all day...I guess I am a little obsessed with portraits at the moment.
Anyway to take my mind off choosing portraits for NPC mods I have done the following. Each image is taken from various locations around the net, mainly Poser art sites. The armour and such are various cobbling together of bits and pieces from BG2 armour and some other BG2 portraits already available. Let me know what you think:  Top-Left - she wasn't so pink, didn't have the elf ears, didn't have that birth-mark/tattoo type thing and didn't have the armor. Top-Middle - he didn't have any armor, no clothes at all in fact, didn't have the tattoo or the elfish ears and the hair was so dark you almost couldn't see it at all! Top-Right - all this guy had was a face and only about half the neck you see now. I extended the neck and added the worn armor. Might make a decent villain. Bottom-Left - again this guy was just head and short neck. I added the armor, recoloured it blue and red tint, lengthened his neck using the smudge tool. Also he was paler than the elf girl above so I gave him a tan by using a skin graft from another portrait and smudge it in. There is still something odd about this one..the eyes? Bottom-Middle - she wasn't a drow and had no clothes on! I think the leather straps might still need some touching up...but don't they always! Bottm-Right: he was just a head wearing a black polo neck, I had to give him a different background to highlight his hair, added the armour which fitted nice with the polo, copied the sword handle to the left side. Might make a decent Armsmaster for some Duke. Gave him the scaring too. |

Not bad.
 I like the pink lady best. She's perfect. Oooookay some critic, I hope it's helpful to give you a new perspective on the pics (from drawing I know that oneself looses the objective view on the own picture sometimes): The left guy on the top line has a too long neck IMO, and for a BGII portrait the head is too small on the picture. top row, middle: His left eye (on the right side) looks strange: I would expect the pupil to be bigger, more black. The eye has a light (blue) spot where I would expect the black of the pupil to be. The man on the right in the bottom row has a too long neck, too. IMO. The neck looks a bit strange too: on the one side the line goes from shoulder to ear, on the other side only to his chin - do you see what I mean? The stoned guy... (Now I know why you suggested that "smilie", Awake  ) I like his face very much, actually. I would like to see him not with flying hair but with a normal haircut, or (preferably) wearing a helmet, and with awake eyes. The head a bit bigger on the pic, in full (now it is cut on the forehead.) I know to make the eyes is a hard thing, but if you'd like to play with that one some more I would be curious to see the result. (I'm always looking for alternate portraits for Ajantis... )
