Amentep Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 The old thread can be found here - https://forums.obsidian.net/topic/91743-portraits/page-38 I believe the most recent topics involved needing more male barbarians user portraits and whether or not the official portraits of female characters were 'pretty' enough. I actually much prefer characters to have more unique facial features than be waifu-ified, but I’m completely with those that think Pallegina’s new portrait doesn’t look like her based on her POE1 portrait (which is almost a dead ringer for Rihanna). There is also definitely a strange underbite/ large jaw problem with all the Deadfire portraits. The new iterations are much improved, though. Game's not out yet folks, you may find out it actually makes sense for a character to look the way they are presented. Don't you think they don't know it? They just don't care. More sisnister reasons are hidden behind the players' not-likeness of already established and flesh-out characters' portraits, unfortunately Game's not out yet folks, you may find out it actually makes sense for a character to look the way they are presented.

More sisnister reasons are hidden behind the players' not-likeness of already established and flesh-out characters' portraits, unfortunately Essentially, I want all of the female companions to pander to my very limited and misogynist view of what a beautiful woman looks likePersonal choice is irrelevant: anyone that doesn't accept the creator's view of what a character's portrait should be, is basically a sexist, racist bigot Am I the only one who I think that in case Deadfire, people from Obsidian are not capable of creating a portrait without huge jaws?I miss the good old days when were portraits based on real people, so the proportions made sense. Zdenka Podkapová (born August 6, 1977) (also credited as Zdenka, Zdeňka Popová[1] or Zdenka Novotná[2][3]) is a Czech adult model, actress, and former gymnast.*Cough, cough* What you want to say is:I miss the old days when portraits were based on covers of porn magazines, not real people 3 I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjshae Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Are there any portraits for more homely faces? Like a Danny Trejo, Ron Perlman, or Peter Lorre?

Aramintai Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Alright, barbarians requests were a bust. To whomever requested these: https://forums.obsidian.net/topic/91743-portraits/?p=1995190 https://forums.obsidian.net/topic/91743-portraits/?p=1995453 https://forums.obsidian.net/topic/91743-portraits/?p=1995456 You need to provide me with much larger resolution of these pics if you can, these are too small and blurry. And frankly I don't really see much potential in them looking good anyway - their style and color palette is too different. Not all is lost though, because in worst case scenario you can always use POE' official barbarian portrait: https://pillarsofeternity.gamepedia.com/File:Human_male_PoE1_portrait_13_lg.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
