Assassin, Shadowdancer, thief, ..he could be any of those I guess :) Tried to make him look slightly closer to the Faerun elves than the more Tolkien'ish ones I usually make ;) The poor boy's face has been tweaked so much his own mother won't recognise him, lol. 5 photos merged and given a coat of paint, and the cloak I painted in myself. Changed lighting etc. etc., -the usual stuff.
But you must know by now that I love pics that are cut differently :D I think they make much more interesting portraits :) (Lol, actually, the source pic was cut even more, I painted in some) I've noticed that fashion and portraits photographers love unusual angles etc. which I think is brilliant. But I know, it's a matter of taste as with everything else. I've noticed however that many of Bioware's own portraits are like this too. Some are cut so you only see half the face or the top of the head is cut off, or the character is crammed into a corner, lol. Good stuff. A year ago I didn't like Bioware's portraits much but they have grown on me. Some may be strange and ugly but at least they're good characters which is the most important. Anyways, thanks for the nice feedback, appreciate it :)"Light travels faster than sound, that's why some people appear bright until you hear them speak"

Wow, wycked. I've been gone a while and just going through the site I notice all these gorgeous portraits you've come up with. Brilliant work, keep it up. The only thing I would add to this pic is that his head hits the top of the frame which makes the composition a bit forced.

yes go ahead and change him so he will fit your character, I don't mind. Have fun and thanks for commenting :)"Light travels faster than sound, that's why some people appear bright until you hear them speak"

I am sure you are going to becoime popular with this roguish elf :) Very nice portrait. Perfectly in the mood of the game. He would fit one of my pen paper, although my elf is silver hair with locks. I might have to change that on your work. With your permission...
