A generic half-elf. For some reason all the photos I want to use are in bad shape so I have such a job cleaning them up and repainting them to make them work, lol. Oh well, as long as I think it's worth it :p Cleaned it up quite abit, merged a few photos , gave it a layer of paint, then used the dodge/burn and smudge tools. I narrowed his jaw and tilted his eye just *slightly* to give him a touch of elven features. **Updated** I didn't like his ear, it looked so huge so I covered it up with hair ;)
He's handsome*she says pointing at the screen,dumbstruck*

Great work! Has a unique and atmospheric look to it. I think the ear re-work was a good improvement.

Yep, you're correct :)"Light travels faster than sound, that's why some people appear bright until you hear them speak"

Having the monitor adjusted correctly can do wonders :D I found that out some months ago. I had had my monitor adjusted far too dark without knowing it and now as I go back and look at my earlier portraits many of them look very grey and washed out o_O Btw, I've tried the portrait in the game, and it looks good. Not too dark. One can easily see his features because of the contrasts. Thanks for commenting! :)"Light travels faster than sound, that's why some people appear bright until you hear them speak"

Love this portrait! it's so dramatic, I like a portrait that suggests a story when you look at it, this one makes me wonder about the character's past... The light and shadow on the face and neck is just amazing, his face is a little dark and hard to see, but I think it might take away from the drama to make it more visible (and it could quite possibly be my stupid monitor...) Anyway great work!~Sylvana

This is really nice. So now it's MINE, ALL MINE. Well, maybe not, but that's okay. Keep up the spiffy work.
