Wormerine Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 I dunno about you guys but I think they tweaked some of the original companions portraits (Ydwin, Xoti) to look more like their VO actors while some already kinda looked like them (Tekehu, Rekke). Just take a look at their pics: https://forums.obsidian.net/topic/96803-critical-role-meet-pillars-of-eternity-ii-deadfire/ P.S. New Ydwin portrait is a winner. I see little physical resemblance. Tis possible they tweaked the portraits further after performances were recorded. Eothas could use a purple mohawk.
Cathmor1973 Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 Please make this into player character portrait to be used in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire please someone!>>>...

injurai Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 I do like your fix, it's well done and the lighting brings out her eyes and patterning. I've always been totally fine with the original though. Plus I always see the portrait as a more official take on the character than the model, especially given Pillars1. 1
Edvin Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 Plus I always see the portrait as a more official take on the character than the model, especially given Pillars1. I have the same opinion, but the portraits in games are almost always far more beautiful than real gaming models. That's why I was surprised because the model for Maia was definitely beautiful and sexy but her portrait looked more like a man than a woman.
Mannock Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 Masculine face and ugly green filter was perfect? Nothing like her true model She was/is super cool and good looking, yes. She looks like she can slap anyone around. It's all good in my book. 3 I'll do it, for a turnip. DnD item quality description mod (for PoE2) by peardox
Edvin Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 A few minor adjustments for Mirke, nothing special.I did not like the fact that she looked like a drug addict :D 2

She looks like she can slap anyone around. It's all good in my book. Really? Everything thanks to green filter and a long chin? Because these are the only major thing that I have changed.
injurai Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 I also thought Mirke's liver was about to fail when I first saw her. Back to Maia, I did think she looked a little "ill" in a way that Kana didn't. Or it's like her portrait was done on an aged parchment or something. The chin and pock-mark are slightly unflattering, which is true. Or is it a scar? If you look at the other official art for her, she is captured in a more flattering way, that your fix does seem to be more in-line with. I'm fine with Maia being a 8 instead of a 9, and can entirely see why you made the changes you did. If they don't change her appearance, I'll say it again, you're lighting is an improvement. You're lighting is more natural which also fits in line with some of the other portraits. 1
Edvin Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 @injuraiThis was one of the reasons why I wrote:"my first attempt to fix her portrait"I'm still not happy with her lips and overall facial structure.Next versions will be much better.
Progressive_Stupidity Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 It's the eyebrows on Maia's portrait that could do with fixing, if anything. They're too thin in relation to her features. Aaanyway, could some kind soul Deadfire this portrait up? Don't think I've seen it requested yet.

Next versions will be much better. As for the lips, my suggestion is back off the lipstick look just a bit and keep to a natural look. I see you've lowered and plumped her lips slightly, which doesn't quite work. Keep to a thiner style or if you have to match the model give the center portion some contour. The other official sources for her are probably the best thing to draw from, more so than the model.
Aramintai Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 Awesome looking watercolor portrait of Edér some guy on 4chan made. Some guy made a perfect POE1 watercolor Eder portrait and nobody seems to care I think it's an awesome work! I hope he makes these for the other two old buddies. I'm not sure Maia needs a "face lift" though. Her original portrait was fine - she's an aumaua, she should be big faced. And she's not the only one whose paper doll is not an exact match. Most of them are fine, except for Aloth's paper doll I think - that long face is just too long, lips and chin went down too far south from the nose. 3
LLaney Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 Game's not out yet folks, you may find out it actually makes sense for a character to look the way they are presented. 21
Gromnir Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 (edited) No love for Maia Rua? Shame... Here is my first attempt to fix her portrait. *exorcised unnecessary clutter* Fix her? There's nothing to fix in her old portrait. It's perfect! I still prefer Grieving Mother though. indeed. fix michelangelo's david? fix chopin's prelude in e-minor? fix the in-n-out double-double with cheese? feminization changes to maia? only difference we would consider for maia is perhaps tone down the lipstick redness. if we were told the particular shade o' red were called trollop, we would not be surprised. HA! Good Fun! ps serafen and maia is reaching our high water mark for poe franchise portraits.

Yosharian Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 (edited) No love for Maia Rua? Shame... Here is my first attempt to fix her portrait. Hmm, I'll admit she does have rather masculine features, I still like the portrait though. I think strong-jawed women can still be very pretty, take Olivia Wilde for example. Your 'fix' (that's an arrogant title for starters, I like the 4chan edits of some of the other characters but I would never dare to call them 'fixes', that's arrogant and disrespectful to the original artist) messes with the proportions of the face too much and the result doesn't really look like an Aumaua. Also her lips don't really look right. The tight lips look appropriate on the original but they do not work on your edit. There's also many unnecessary changes like changing her skin colour, eye colour and so on. I also don't like what you did with her facial expression. She looked determined, fiercely independent, before, as befits her character. Your edit loses that somewhat. Edited April 12, 2018 by Yosharian 2 Yosharian's Deadfire Builds

Edvin Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 The second attempt!
