Agreed, the portrait choices in this game were extremely limited... at least, the default choices were. I myself found a link to where hundred's of portraits are stored (they were made for BG, but work in IWD) and got some other ones, but even then the portraits tended to feature model-quality waifish women, and caucasion, big strong & handsome guys.
I don't know why Black Isle doesn't release more pictures, especially since there is at least one more game (and possibly more) which will be using the same engine... it goes a long way towards game enjoyment for a player to be able to visualize their characters just the way they want to.
