Title: some portraits I made on the vault...
Post by: twu on July 17, 2006, 09:03:10 PM
Hi everyone. Just recently, I was searching the vault for some ethnically diverse portraits to use for an idea I had for character, and I was really disappointed with the lack of selection. Being artistically inclined and a proponent of equal representation, I decided to take matters into my own hands and made my first NWN portrait... then another, and another, and so on.
  I was hoping to get some more comments and votes on my pictures, so I figured I'd post a link to my work here.  http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=User.EntriesListing&id=85823
  (Dji is my favorite one.)
  I'd appreciate it if you could take a minute or two to writeme a little blurb about anything you like about the portraitsor anything you think could be improved and vote. Since I usually play females, most of these portraits are for women. I made these by taking an existing photo of a model and reworking/repainting the entire surface in photoshop.
  Thanks for all your feedback!
 
   And just as a note, I haven't played much on layo yet... I signed up about a month ago and then... uh... I got addicted to making new portraits, so that took up a bunch of my free time! ^^;

Loved 'em.  Makes me want to create a character just for one of the portraits...

Sweetness.

This brings up the question, will NWN2 use the same file format for the portraits?  Because if so, I'd beg of you to find and make a variety of portraits of the different barbaric folk.

NWN2 wont use 2d portraits. Instead they will have a zoomed in version of your avatar's head. So say goodbye to that when/if we switch.
 
  And TWU nice portraits, saw them at the vault a few days ago, really like Cintia, nice job.
