Yeah I didn't actually see that but it does kind of looks like the same pose as some of the IWD portraits!
Here is another slightly different portrait...I'm still unsure about doing full-face (or almost full-face) helms: |

Excellent work too. How the skull-helm changes the original face!

The half-ork is handsome, but a bit too much boy-ish for my taste - if you know what I mean!
The portrait with the scull helmet looks a bit too much blurred. |

It's funny but the skull one looks fine on my PC at home but I agree looks very blurred from my work PC!.
It was an experiment with Helm's, I might come back to it in time and try to fix the blurring with some Clone Stamping (Attack of the). And for some reason the eyes remind me of Hulk....SMAAASH! |

The top of the helm needs to be sharper, that's sure.

Okay it's been a few weeks but I have done other portraits for Sol-Ek-Sa and independant offers too...most have been updated to page 3 of my Gallery in the link in my sig.
Well after the eye surgery here is my first portrait...my own eyes are still a little blurry so forgive any bluriness I may have missed in this one: My own version of a Ghostwise Halfling: Thanks to Old Gwyn for posing! |

Another attempt at Baldurizing myself:
from this image: I have come to the conclusion that I am not very photogenic and I need a shave! |

Okay I was doing this this evening for the Fraylor mod over at CoM but it is not suitable so I might as well show it here. It's the first time I've done colour from Black and White:

My next few portraits will hopefully try to bring a bit more "life" to the models! Kind of like the BG1 portraits..more action oriented...hopefully:

Very hard to find people in poses that will show any action and also fit the general portrait size of BG.

She looks like she's trying to reduce her dislocated neck...

The position of her left arm is very unnatural. What is she doing with her left hand? Did something escape my attention?

Touching her neck, I've seen some women do this...thinking or what-have-you...much like men rubbing the stubble on their chins.
Really it is just the pose the model was in, it would have been too much hassle to remove the arm and rebuild the neck. I can't see how it would be un-natural, it is her real arm after all...some women are flexible (18 dex )! |

It's a natural pose, but not when pulling out a sword with the other hand! It's just my personal opinion, and it doesn't mean that I don't like the way you edited (baldurized) the portrait. It's great in that respect.
