    @LadyEibhilinRhett Go right ahead! :D I can see the resemblance, now that you mentioned it. :D

    Knowing someone wants to use something I made as a portrait feels pretty darn neat, so than you for asking! :D

    Everyone is welcome to use it if they want to.

    I did NOT make it. Found it looking for portraits.

    Does anyone know where I can find a higher resolution version of this guy?

    Why? Because he's awesome.

    Thanks, @reedmilfam :D

    There is a definite lack of orcy portraits in the game. I'm trying to make a half-orc portrait at the moment.

    Still needs a lot of work before it's finished. Those tusks are annoying the heck out of me.

    @DarkDogg Isn't that a contradiction?

    @mibbles - I found a couple, but putting the portraits onto a website is a challenge for me. I don't have accounts that make it easy.

    Awesome pics, grand thread.

    It is actually very fun/interesting idea to use 2 or 3 different incarnations of the Abdel face.

    Sorry, my fault (

    I'm not DarkDogg, but I can answer your question about the armors. The first is just a recolor of the original portrait's armor and the second is a white and gold recolor of the armor from Sarevok's BG2 portrait.

    *facepalm* Of course. I didn't recognize them, as I never used that knight portrait, and only traveled with Sarevok once or twice. Thanks for reminding me. :)

    @mercyfulfate1988, @TiaxRulesAll, this Yoshimo comes from this gallery: http://ftg386.deviantart.com/gallery/39474689 , and there are other excellent portraits there. :)@Tome, you should check this gallery as well, there's a Loki there that's light years better than mine.

    @reedmilfam cutting and scaling is planned for this weekend, after that I'll probably upload them to the collection @TiaxRulesAll started. (http://forum.baldursgate.com/discussion/8413/bgee-custom-portraits-dropbox-lets-compile-them-all-here)

    @Koson - as @reedmilfam mentioned, the artist specifically asked not to modify/use his work, so I just used it as reference. That mask looked a bit like it was made out of a curved deer scull, so I googled for a pic of scull shown from a right angle:
    http://www.connecticutvalleybiological.com/images/sp3100.jpg
    and modified the hell out of it. The end result is thus:

    Do you like?

    so much awesome in this post but Ill just comment on the above parts Thanks for the link to the Yoshimo, thats what I was looking for, also grabbed a few more from there. Gonna resize and add to my collection thread. Glad to see you will be uploading there soon as well. I really cant wait to see all your work.

    And that mask picture is amazing, I really like this one, gonna have to use it for sure.

    Sure I can do that.

    None of the artwork is done by me, I have just sized and cut images I have found to fit the new portrait sizes for BG:EE

    Hey thanks Freche!

    Here are some portraits I've cropped. I haven't done any of the art.

    @Syntia13 YAY NO MORE TUSKS. Thanks for that! One less thing to worry about. Still needs a whole lot tinkering, but it's all good fun. :D

    @Syntia13: Thanks for finding the alternate Loki portrait-but I really like the art yours was based off, so now I've got a tough decision. :S
  • KosonKoson Member Posts: 284
    @Syntia13 Is very nice, thank you! If is not too much to ask, could you darken a bit the leather headband to match the shirt / armor in color, and engrave celtic/pagan looking runes on the deer skull?
    I knew the first picture was copyrighted (and could have linked to a book cover using same image where the copyright notice would have been absent), but thought it would be ok to use/alter the mask while not tinkering with the portrait itself.

    I'm working on a variation of that right now. It doesn't have the black armor or goatie, but it could be edited, and is at the resolution of the large portrait (210 x 310). I'm saving the separate parts (face, hood, armor) before merging and could email them to you, if you'd like. I'll be posting the image shortly.

    Where are those armors from, that's what I'd like to know *stares at the armor greedily*.
    Oh, pardon my manners. Good pictures. :) But seriously, where are the armors from?






    The armor is from Sarevok's portrait.

    @Syntia13 'Oooooh, beefcake! Yum! ... I mean, handsome men who surely deserve respect and should not be objectified, despite looking sexy shirtless. ;D

    What? What? Perfectly nice eye-candy, what's the problem? ;P'

    Hmmm, well, I also have this one, minus the smiley:

    There was one I wanted to use for my PC.

    I'm using this image for my Charname, I've used it for a while for various things and found it via a Google image search for green goddess. I later found out the artist has done some cover art for Elaine Cunningham's non-realmsian novels .
