As I play as male elf or half-elf 85% of the time I was in desperate need of more variations in these portraits. Seems I always use the same 3 :p Ok, back to business. I had quite a job with young Seril here. Base pic was a model but he has been heavily edited. First I narrowed his whole face, then his nose slightly. I then narrowed his jawline, made his chin pointier and gave him higher cheekbones. I arched his eyebrows more and then airbrushed his face, giving it more depth as well as removing his 3-day-beard-stubbles (or whatever they're called) I wanted him to look like a *real* elf and not a human with pointy ears. They are after all a different race than us humans ;) He originally had short hair so I had quite a job with giving him this long mane. I did have a little help with a PS brush though :) The armour is an edited LOTR armour, -as if you didn't already know :p Hope you like :)
