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.
 
:brows:

 

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 :(

Essentially, I want all of the female companions to pander to my very limited and misogynist view of what a beautiful woman looks like

Personal 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.IKVQx4L.jpgvzADBoT.jpg

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

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

Are there any portraits for more homely faces? Like a Danny Trejo, Ron Perlman, or Peter Lorre? Not every hero needs to look like a model.

Gah, old thread is gone...  :unsure:

But on the upside I finally managed to put some order to my scrambled mess of a portraits album. Here are some of the better looking (imho) custom portraits from the first thread:

My 1st go at Wizard male portrait+watercoloring. Unfortunately can't see how they'll look in game, since im not in beta, but any critisism is welcome.

Alright, barbarians requests were a bust. To whomever requested these:

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:

> homely

 

> Danny Trejo

 

:blink:

 

 

This is a set of three with a single designation

Not all members are ugly

All members are homely

Ergo, I called them homely

It bothers me a little that all the offical fire god-like portraits in the first game didn't really match the deadfire fire god-like model. The portraits mostly has human skins, while the model looks like metal on fire,

 

Bothered me too, but I find Anna Helme's fire godlike portraits to be too awesome not to use!

 

Here's my collection of godlike-ish m & f with skin as close to the model as I could find.

Thanks for compiling everything in one place. I'd been meaning to go through that thread to choose the best portraits.
