I wanted to make a female paladin who looked determined and righteous but couldn't find a suitable sourcepic so I took the photo myself :p Tess, the model here, wanted me to make an elf out of her but I had planned on making a human so... I made two versions of the same portrait :) Merged 6 photos and a serious amount of paint. --------- To make her look more elvish and not just a human with elf-ears I tilted her eye a little and narrowed her jaws to make her face look 'pointier' and narrower, which is my idea of how elves would look :)
wycked, I'll admit it was the human version of this that caught my eye originally, but I peeked here and saw the posts so I had to say something. These potraits are lovely. The human variation puts me in mind of a Paladin of Lathander in FR, though I'm not sure who the elf would belong too, maybe Corellin I like the angle, and comparing the photo to the finished potrait, you captured her look perfectly. The resolution on her face is powerful. The definition is rather good. All and all a wonderful potrait, and I'm going to be downloading bother varations :) Thank you
