The base is a photo of Gackt, but I made a female out of him :p I've probably used close to 20 layers here, I lost count, lol. The background alone has 4. The armor is from a fantasy painting. A lot of cutting, flipping and rotaing was needed to get the patchwork together. Painted the whole thing and added textures. Included in the zip is a 64x100 jpeg for use in Leto and Mr_Dave's tutorial on how to add it. **Made the hand smaller as suggested by Gyr and Apricane**
Not the everclean, everbrave nevertired adventurer.. she's got character (and that's what someone wnt's to play :-) )

(ignoring the post below) I really like this. Great job. :)"Back in the box, ye wild 2da little beasties!"

Makes a much better pretty boy elf than a girlie. I wll probably use it as a boy, myself.

Thank you Allista, appreciate it :) Yes I thought "elf" when I saw him, lol but I decided to make him a female just because my male elves tend to turn out very feminine looking :p"Light travels faster than sound, that's why some people appear bright until you hear them speak"

Oooh... I like this! He's quite the pretty thing, works for both male and female I'd say. I can't believe you conjured up this nice portrait out of that picture. Nothing against the picture *dodges the fanbois*, but he sure looks quite different now :) Elf ears suit him. *purrs* verrrrry nice

Lol Shuuichi :D I suspect you like Gackt :p Btw, nice job with the wallpaper ;)"Light travels faster than sound, that's why some people appear bright until you hear them speak"

... Okay, I think I got the fanboyishness out of my system... for now. It took a while, though. x.X Much raving and the completion of a wallpaper using above pic... >.>;; ANYWHO!! @_@ You know what's weird? I was sitting here the other day, looking at the portraits and coming across so many celebrities, half of which I think were Angelina Jolie, and I thought to myself 'Hey, I bet Gackt would make a good character. Maybe I should try to make a portrait.' Now I don't have to! =D Creepy that you made him when right when I was wanting him, but hey... It's all good. Ouu, you should make Hyde into a halfling or something! >) (Or Kyo, from Dir en Grey... he's already short enough for one XD) Anywho, I'm off to consider posting my new wallpaper on Deviant Art. *drools over picture again, then prances away all fanboyish once again*

OMG, wycked I love you~~ *_* Gackt-sama... as an elf... in my game... *faints* Oh, oh, oh *_* Sankyuu, sankyuu~ And forget female. I see no busty boobage, so male he be. He's pretty enough for a male elf, ne? *prances around, then stops* Uh... good work. *tries to sidestep away from his fanboishness, fails and trips over his feet* The link didn't work, though. T_T
