Okay, after things got a bit heated over Jaheira BG1 or BG2, I'll risk the third female character in both versions, Viconia...

In BG2 she has obviously had a flashy make over... What can I say? The yellow hoody brings a sense of youth to the girl, blending nicely with her skin tone and beautiful white tresses that now flow past her shoulders. She has gone with a leather circlet and matching blouse that promotes her assests wonderfully. AND THOSE EYES! Emerald green with a look of lost innocence. Bravo! Bravo! Send the flowers directly! I guess her age to be around 25...
BG2: Skin too pale, doesn't look evil (At least I can't connect Viconia's character with this portrait).
Still, BG2 portrait is better IMHO.
One of the darker modifications of the BG2 portrait that actually makes her ebony black, not greyish blue, as she should be.
That said, I generally prefer the BG2 portrait, if only because you interact with her much more in the sequel, and thus it comes up much more often.
Blacker skin, cloak in the colours of Shar. Excellent work.

This portrait Best represents their race.
The Drow are blacks, not blue
There is so many similar topics like this.
Peoples must realy hate that ugly portrait from BG1.
BTW:
Drow skin can be blue.
Not all drows have black skin ( all humans are also not white ).
Black skin can be majority, but their skins are mix blue, black, gray and violet.
( But all drows have WHITE hairs, not violet like on her deviant portrait from BG1 )

I thought the BG1 Viconia picture was more befitting a halfling or dwarf.

That being said, BG2 Viconia has easily the better portrait. Because she's supposed to be, I don't know, A FRIGGIN' DROW!?
