Karse Soze 06-13-2002 12:24 PM

Hi "guys",
This is a list of portrait I intend to make in the near future. So much to do, so little time:

Angelina Jolie - Human/Paladin
Danny De Vito - Halfling/Thief
Anthony Hopkins - Human/Necromancer
Jeromy Irons - Human/Priest
Ian McKellan - Human/Mage
Viggo Mortensen - Halfelf/Archer
Sandra Bullock - Elf/Thief
Edward Norton - Human/Assasin
Gary Oldman - Human/Mage
Jennifer Love Hewitt - Human/Sorcerer
Callista Flockheart - Elf/Mage
Woody Allen - Halfling/Bard (now wouldn't that be anoying...hehe)
Sharon Stone - Necromancer
The Rock - Half Orc/Barbarian

Phew...there will be much to do! Who would make a good dwarf and who would make a good female Half Orc?

<font color="gold">Hmm... John Rhys-Davies aka Gimli would probably make a good dwarf. [img]smile.gif[/img] Female Half-orc is worse. [img]smile.gif[/img] </font>

Jyri88 06-14-2002 10:51 AM

I think I am [img]smile.gif[/img] Anyways, as long as it is fun to do, and I can find time in the evenings, I will continue doing the portraits. If it just wasn't for that nine-to-five job [img]smile.gif[/img]

Thanks. But what would you make jolie??? A fighter?

Helspanth 06-14-2002 11:58 AM

She is beautifull but seems a little lusty for a paladin IMHO.
Fighter is good however!

Guess your right...she looks a bit too naugty [img]smile.gif[/img]

Melusine 06-14-2002 12:44 PM

Damn, you've really outdone yourself on the Angelina Jolie one! I don't even *like* her as an actress, but that pic is great! Using it as an avatar on Pandemonium currently [img]smile.gif[/img]

Keep up the good work (but as Memsy said, don't overwork yourself)! [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

[img]smile.gif[/img] Well, you can tell Memsy that I'll try not to [img]smile.gif[/img]
BTW...send you a mail...

The.Relic 06-14-2002 05:29 PM

Once again I have to say "Great work KS"!
That is one heck of a list mate, don't burn yourself out [img]smile.gif[/img]
Heh, for some reason I picture Angelina as a swashbuckler or someone it the thieves class.
I guess I'm the only one but I sure do think that HHH would would make a great shot for a Barbarian. He just has that kind of face [img]smile.gif[/img]
I see you also implemented my tatoo idea on some of the new ladies. Nice work, and they are not overdone, that should be more appealing for the people who don't care for the facial scars.

Hi Relic,
Who is HHH?

Oh and I've just uploaded a whole new area of the site (on request), where you can get HUGE portraits for use in the upcoming Icewind Dale 2. Even if you don't intend to play IWD2, you can go there to take a look at the origional size portraits [img]smile.gif[/img]

Sir Exxon 06-14-2002 05:51 PM

<font color="gold">My god! :eek: I must say that I'm deeply impressed. [img]graemlins/awesomework.gif[/img] Karse, you rock! :D </font>

The.Relic 06-14-2002 05:59 PM

Ahh, HHH or "Triple H", is another wrestler, one of The Rock's arch nemesis. About the same height, but a little more muscle bound. Not a handsome guy, he has a brawlers face and semi long stringy, always wet hair, heh.

Vlad Tepes 06-14-2002 08:03 PM

Whoaaa that Angelina Jolie's portrait kicks a*** that great job, it i at least excellent, no it is perfect Angelina Jolie is the nicest portrait definitely... wonderful job karse congrats.

I'll take a look for 3xH, I'm definately in need of some not so handsome/pretty characters [img]smile.gif[/img]

SixOfSpades 06-16-2002 04:50 PM

I think the BG1 portrait of the "Generic Male Halfling" (You know, the one with the tartan cap) would be a good match for Danny Devito--it seems that in 50% of all pictures of him, he's got that kind of "I'm plotting something devious, and it's making me smile" expression; perfect for a Thief.

By no means am I saying anything negative about your talent, Karze, but it seems that your portraits seem to lean heavily toward the Warrior classes--only a few of the girls look like they might be Wizards or Rogues. I'm still wondering why you're sticking with the BG2 pictures; Kivan's portrait seems much too good to be overlooked by an artist of your skills.

I agree, it's going to be a real pain to find a "celebrity" who'd be a good match for a Female Half-Orc. A few people might suggest Hillary Clinton or Martha Stewart, but neither of them look heavily-built enough. Maybe Oprah Winfrey?

jreapert 06-16-2002 04:57 PM

m8 your portraits rock!!!!! do you do requests? if so i think you should austin powers the godfather...hehehe...oh i want one done of me!!!

OH YEAH!!!

A Dr. Evil portrait would kick some SERIOUS booty! He even has a scar! And Ajantis's picture even has his hand up near his face, making it possible to do the pinky-lip gesture! Oh, man, I'm on a weirdo Dr. Evil/Baldur's Gate trip now. Wheeeee......

Chaos Engine 06-21-2002 12:26 AM

Just an idea Mr. Soze...
I think Nicole Kidman (especially in her earlier films) has the perfect 'fiery' sort of look that you expect to see on a mage or sorceror...
anybody agree?

Obsidian the Black 06-21-2002 09:01 PM

Soze I will send you a private message.

Obsidian the Black 06-21-2002 09:10 PM

Wait i cant send you a private message, well then can you make me a potrait of something like sarevok with the same kind of eyes, a black cloak on white hair and blacky skin like a drow and a long scar across his eye i'll draw a rough picture and email it to you. Also you could do a sarah michelle geller fighter/mage

Obsidian the Black 06-21-2002 09:16 PM

how can i get my picture to you soze?

LennonCook 06-23-2002 02:08 AM

SixOfSpades 06-26-2002 08:38 PM

Karze, is something wrong?

I get the feeling that that big, nasty phenomenon called Reality has snuck up & pounced on you, preventing you from making any more portraits. If so, would you be opposed to other Ironworks folks making their own composites and sending them to you, to see if they match your standards for being posted on the Portal? I've a hankering to see Weird Al Yankovic as a Jester, and I'd make him myself if I had a real computer.

Since a one word "bump" is considered spam, I thought I would insert it in a sentence.

SixOfSpades 07-08-2002 06:22 PM

Me, I'm really wondering what happened to Karze. It's like he died or something.....hope not....

No worries, SixOfSpades. I'm still alive. I have, however, been on holiday and consumed by work. And in addition to that, which is bad enough in itself, I've had the tendancy to spend too much time on NWN lately. But nevertheless, I'm still here, and do intend to do more portraits a.s.a.p. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Take care everyone!

SixOfSpades 07-15-2002 10:38 PM

He LIIIIIIIIVVVVVVES!!

He's only mostly dead. Well, now all we need to do is compare the date/time with Karze's last post before he "went underground" with his next one, and we'll know exactly how long it takes to beat NWN.

When you do come back, Karze, you might do well to just start another thread--this one's getting to be a bit too much to wade through at once. Don't worry, we'll still remember the portraits we'd requested. :D
