    Or you could just ask the original artist for permission or maybe just have something arranged in private.
    The point is that the modified version of the image doesn't get redistributed without the original artist's consent.

    The problem is that i don't know the original artist nor i know how to find him. The only hint is a name that i do not even am able to read on the picture.

    I'm really not that good with pc, internet and such.

    This is the best way to act, yes.

    @Masterteo Just Right-click the picture and choose Search Picture (Google)

    This is the pic: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/XP5gR Shyvana the Half-Dragon by Mazert Young

    As @Artemius_I said, you had to source the artist and the picture when even posting it here.

    Anyway, it's always good to show the right way of working with art in the Internet to any new person.

    Eh, dont bother. The going rate forhigh quality pics can be 200 dollars or more. It is not like the pics are not worth that; put 20 hours into a pic and that is 10 dollars per hour salary. It is just that who can afford it?

    Could you please either upload or link to the female portrait that's in between Coran and Garrick?

    Thanks in advance.

    I'm just glad to see this thread becoming active again. I love seeing new BG portraits.

    @Kamigoroshi I'm so happy to see some Goblins being posted. :)

    I've sent you a PM. Can't share it here, as it is a heavily modified (by me) version of a portrait done by another artist.

    Hello,
    i have a picture and i would like to ask you if some of you is able to do a BG2 whole figure, hi-res image for a warrior kind of elf.

    There are 2 problems :

    1- the picture i have, and that i'll post here, is only of her face.

    2- i can't find the author of this picture, do you have any idea on how to find him ? I don't want to use his drawing without his/her permission.

    This is the picture :

    Wow. I am the first to admit that i'm not a genius of computer-related matters. Far from it.
    But i googled it, i searched on artstation... and i did not found it.

    You instead founded it in less than 20 minutes. Amazing. What's your secret ?
  • lefreutlefreut Member Posts: 1,462
    I found it with Google Image reverse image search.
  • MasterteoMasterteo Member Posts: 111
    Ok, thank you. I'm using that now and i'm finding also other pictures.

    But i ask you, then, do you know how to find pictures like the one i'm posting here now ?

    I was able to understand that it was made by a certain chembo on deviantart / Bo Chen on art station.

    But the original image can't be found on Deviantart / artstation. So, do you know a way to find it ?

    It's another potential image for a bg2 character, probably a thief one

    I see your problem. :(

    See ?
    The original picture of this last image that i posted is impossible to find.
    And that's strange. I mean, we know the artist because online there are renditions of his drawing, but we can't find the author's original one...
  • Wise_GrimwaldWise_Grimwald Member Posts: 3,866
    @Masterteo However the image is not good enough for a portrait. It will look very blurred.

    Cait (reworked) by LuckyFK
    More really scaly scalies are always needed. Approved by Deekin.


    I really like this portrait but I have no idea what D&D race it can be associated with... Little help? :p

    Half dragon or some variety of tiefling, most likely.

    I would say tiefling.
    There is a sub-race mod which includes tiefling. It is slightly buggy, but the bugs can be ironed out using EEkeeper.

    That is a Tiefling Dragon Disciple for sure.

  • KamigoroshiKamigoroshi Member Posts: 5,870
    Close, she's an half-elf half-dragon lady according to the artist. The nose is a dead giveaway to that after all. :p
  • Dev6Dev6 Member Posts: 721
    Whatever she is, she'll be a part of my next party for sure. :)
  • Wise_GrimwaldWise_Grimwald Member Posts: 3,866
    I should have guessed the half-dragon bit from the length of the neck.
    She is however VERY similar to some of the tiefling illustrations that I have seen.

    I may repeat myself here. But more scalies are always needed.
