I tried to make a portrait that more resembeled bioware's own portraits this time. The base was an actor made up as Santa's helper, but the photo has been heavily modified. He had a huge beard which I got rid of and repainted his face an moustache. Did some adjustments to eye and eyebrows, re-painted the hair, painted a cloak, added brooch and tunic, hand and the beaker. Finished it all off by airbrushing/smudging the whole portrait. No effects/blends or anything added. This is just a merge and airbrush thing. Hope you like. ***UPDATED*** Someone mentioned it was slightly blurry, and it was. My eyes were rather tired last night so I didn't even see it, heh. (I may also have saved the targas in PS CS too, I normally do that in Paintshop as I'm not sure if CS do it right. They'r re-saved in Paintshop now anyways so they're allright :)
Awesome stuff, it fits right in with the game portraits.

Thanks Gothgal and thanks to cavebear who pointed out it was a bit blurry. I was extremely tired last night so I didn't even see it, lol. Fixed now."Light travels faster than sound, that's why some people appear bright until you hear them speak"

One of the best I've seen at imitating Bioware's original portraits. The only downside is a bit of blurriness, probably caused by all the editing. But great job anyway!
