...I'll show you mine! It's fun to look at the portraits, give you a better "hum" what the player is after. Some descriptions are tricky ;D

My current placeholder is on my signature, but I'd love to find a better pic of Zyrus.

I snagged a good one of him in-game. I've not posted it to my journal because the framing on the whole image was shite, but the Zyrus bit of it is still good. I'll upload it and post it here later on.

I-KP I would love to know how you produce such good images from in-game shots.
Also this is exactly the thread to post these in.

Remember, if you rename your tga portrait file, and don't inform me, then everyone who gets the portrait pack won't have the correct file and won't be able to see it in game
ALSO, if you need a picture you find converted to be used in game, even if it is a modern picture we can art-it into a more acceptable form for you
Sticky in this forum says how

Replace the gun with a longsword, and this would be Kert Davis in his civillian clothes

Spending a lot of time moving the Character cam around in-game looking for a nice frame (during fights this becomes risky), then judicious use of the airbrush tools in Photoshop. I liken Photoshop to any other medium: once you learn the various techniques everything else comes fairly easily. Yes, there are many stock filters in Photoshop that are one-click-wonders but their results are usually easily identifiable. Nothing wrong with that per sé; you still need an eye for a well composed frame in the first place.
