Seeing how everyone was making awesome artwork and portraits i just could not stand by and watch and thought i'd get into the thing :cheers: Decided to go for the latter and mix a portrait for one of my favorite BG characters, guess which!

Does this piece look any good? Well i tried.. :unsure: anyway, if you recognise him.. then i shall think i succeeded :P

Poor Yorick... er, Fenthick. Aribeth will have a fit, I doubt it not. :) I hope he still likes girls well enough?

Fenthick in Mazzy armor! With Vicky Hoods!

Which brings the question, what is he hiding from? (Okay but really, he looks like he's trying to escape his dark past.)

Curse Fenthicks popularity! <_<

No idea which BG2 guy you'd be going for. It's young enough and angry-looking enough to stand in for Anomen, but Anomen doesn't wield a sword (unless, like me, you've got AoE). Too young for Keldorn. Valygar does the katana thing. Yoshimo doesn't do platemail. Edwin... no. Just no. Not Cernd for any number of reasons.

OK, I'll play. Who?

He works fine for Anomen in my game! After all, I've got AoE, so clerics can have swords.

I'd have to call her Alora over Imoen. I don't know, just not Imoeny enough for me. That said. Perty

Pretty. Just a note, if this is meant to be in BG2 style. The head and such usually takes up just a bit more of the room of the portrait, so there's less background.

But that background is pretty.

Nah, she'd fall over if they were big enough for her to hold with her hands that far away from her body. She's too young for that, anyway.

I have to go away now.

What there could be? A shiny(magic) star or an orb, just below her jaw.

With your before/after pics, the portrait of the child reminds me of Josh Kidby for some reason.
