Wow... He is a bit young, but I would like to have that one as an alternate Ajantis portrait.
 If possible.Is that a scar beside his eye? What I don't like is the hair: Looks like some sort of rasta curls!  Who is the actor? |

*Sigh* I saw the portrait in work today and it does not look like this on my pc. The hair is so dark that the "rasta curls" just look like shading.
This damn monitor crap is doing my head in! All donations towards Rabain's new "Super Best TFT Monitor on the market" are now being gratefully accepted...thanks! Rastajantis mod anyone? |

Okay here is a quick stick together, that generic elf green elf girl from BG1 and some face found on digital art . com. I didn't make any changes at all to the face just made the neck join up with the other neck, then stuck it onto the armour. The armour had to be lengthened a bit, slightly recoloured to match the hair and I stuck an extra necklace in too.

Okay here is another one I have just completed. Not much to it, took one of the dwarf portraits from BG1 and mixed it with the Halle Berry portrait from the Portrait Portal.
It's a female dwarf!  "Argh, gimme a mug o' ale and a knittin' needle and I'll skewer yon red dragon and we'll have it for supper!" |

Hi All,
Experimenting with women again...  I think I nerfed her chin a little I had to go back and copy it again from the original. I had tried to separate it from the neck as it sort of became part of it in my portrait...then i ended up axing the neck altogether...it looks a little better but could probably be tweaked. I think I made her look a little chubbier too...Green Eyes  from this original:

Thats my favourite one so far, I really like it
 . Although the position of her head doesnt look quite right - seems like it should be moved forward a bit. Have you thought about putting all your portraits into a portrait pack (they deserve it!) ? If you wanted I could easily add them to Portrait City (if you converted them to bg2 format for me - i'm pretty busy).

Yes I thought her head might be a bit far back too but the effort to move the whole thing was too much last night so I left it. Seeing as It is mostly dark around her head now I might get around to updating it. I tend to move on to new things fairly quickly and come back a lot later to fix things! I get bored easily!
I had thought about making an alternate portrait pack, replacing all the NPC portraits with version I made. It might make replaying the game seem a bit different (though only a little). Most of the portraits are available in Epilogue size from the link in my sig. I update that when I have enough for a new page! If anyone needs a bmp or wants some changes they can PM me or whatever. I will take you up on adding them to Portrait City. Do you only provide the two sizes there? I create all mine in Epilogue size (210x330) so they are easily downsized. I might send you the files next weekend or the weekend after...when I am not being so lazy. If anyone wants a photo made into a portrait just let me know, I am always looking for new models! If it is you (in the photo) just let me know what class you would like to be and I'll try to accomodate.Feel free to comment on any portrait, I appreciate the encouragement! |

I love the female dwarf picture! She is really beautiful.. for a dwarf!
The armoured girl in blue is great, too, although her face is a bit much hidden (but that's only my taste). The only picture I don't like that much is the elf with the green/blue lips. It's a beautiful picture but it looks too much painted... if you know what I mean! A Rabain portrait pack would be great indeed.

Here are some portraits I did with particular mod NPC's in mind (these may not necessarily be used in the mods, I just did them with the mods in mind!):
Clifton by Dashael at Blacksheepmods.net  Suzo by Midia Eveill (not sure where she is hosted):  Cassandra by Mabnuln at chosenofmystra.net:  I just thought I'd post these in case anyone is interested or wants to comment. |

I liked the first dwarf pic better...
(Tastes are obviously different.)Wow, that's a beautiful half-ork (?)! I would like to see a handsome male half-ork, too, if you please.

QUOTE Wow, that's a beautiful half-ork (?)! Yes! I originally had a more human nose but Midia wanted her uglier...however I'm not sure she is actually any uglier with the classic half-orc nose! The original pic can be seen here.QUOTE I would like to see a handsome male half-ork, too, if you please That'll be the next one I do...sometime in the next few days. Stay tuned. |

Okay here is an attempt at a handsome young half-orc. I know traditionally half-orc's should be ugly...so ugly that they're ooogly... as we say but some must inherit more human features than others right?
 You'll have to forgive the quality of this pic as the original photo was quite small and enlarging it didn't do it any favours...the bmp is better but not great. It could probably use some tweaking...later! |
