The Portrait Portal - Page 15

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?

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......

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?

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

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.
