Minsc Portrait

ScotGaymer

Not really a fan of the vanilla portraits of minsc in the bgee games so I am wondering...

Does anyone have a "better" portrait? One where he looks a little less... I dunno, boring?

EDIT: Also I wouldnt mind suggestions for Dynaheir as well...

I have the ones from the painted portrait pack, the author of which escapes me. I like how they look.

Thanks. I should really write that down. Or bookmark it or something.

This is my Minsc replacer:

Ooh, those Dyna ones are nice, but those Minsc ones just don't feel like Minsc.

Yow. I can't believe I ever kept her out of my party now.

ObsidianShade

Some characters, even the best portraits can't save, but I may take another look at her since BG2 ruined Neera for me.

I got bored one day, and used BGPyrtraits to convert lots of fantasy art, almost exclusively female, so if anyone wants something particular in that regard, odds are I have it.

Here's a another that could work for her:



or, for something different:

Yowza!

Well, given you can use EEK to change her portrait and avatar colors to anything you like, it's entirely possible to customize her as desired. I merely posted the portraits I had on hand that were closest to Bioware's vision of her, as I figured that was what the poster was likely asking for.

It's not as I'm suggesting this by any means: https://youtube.com/watch?v=Few8kJ0zfnY

That is just ... wow.

Only in China...

This is the coolest Dynaheir custom work I've ever seen

This looks like Paint BG to me which I confess I am not a fan of. The Paint BG portraits just look and feel interchangable and generic - even Minsc. Thanks for the suggestions though. I am grateful.

I am indeed committed to Black Dynaheir lol.

These are all wonderful - the third one seems the most Baldur's Gate like of the three in terms of style I think?

These ones just look like rogues to me, not Witches. Thanks though.

Enkida created "lore-correct" versions of Minsc and Edwin (Minsc has a beard, hair, and no tattoos; Edwin is hairless and has tattoos).




@lolien created a "lore-correct" Dynaheir with her hathran mask.

Ya know if I could get something like this with the hathran mask but on this...

That would look amazing I think. Perfect for Dyna.

As for Minsc its so hard to find a "good" picture for him. In my head Minsc is loud, bombastic, and endlessly cheerful (bordering on the psychotic) and the vanilla picture I feel doesn't reflect that, and sadly neither does that "lore correct" version because it keeps the thing about the picture I don't like which is that he looks sombre.

Well how about this Minsc? Needs much cropping and scaling, but very dynamic. Very proud. Very Boo.
