Carmella(sorceress/blackguard) with her imp familiar 'Cherub'. always found playing NWN as an evil character and achieving the objectives somewhat contradictory. but i wanted to play a blackguard and felt the portrait should represent this contradiction. i wanted an image both beautiful and ugly, seductive and repulsive. the tone of the image is purposefully dark and subdued, but vibrant and barroque in its detail. ---photoshop collage, hand sketching, painted palette knife strokes, and digital photography. took a while, so i hope you like it as much as i do. the large image you see on this site is only used when you first create your PC. i felt there was a bit too much going on for the charactersheet image, so i cropped out the scythe and decapitated head on the left. if ya prefer the full image for your character sheet, just change the 'carmella_H.tga file from 256x512pixels to 128x256px and save it as carmella_L.tga 24bits/pix, overwriting the original carmella_L.tga file.
lol That is almost my name, Carmella instead of Carmel..

good eye....it is indeed angelique...and the "imp" is from the Twisted Oz series (also a favorite of mine).

Very nice artwork. It reminds me a bit of Clive Barker's Hellraiser series, particularly the demoness Angelique. I can never quite get the gist of playing an evil rp character, but I adore Clive Barker... well done.

It finally dawned on me why this portrait looks so familiar, I have this action figure, Lucidique, from the Tortured Souls collection.

you need WinRAR to open a .rar file(or WinAce maybe?) winRar is free to download if you don't have it. once ya have winrar installed, open the file and extract its contents into your NWN portraits folder. you should download WinRar anyway coase its much better than Zip, and can still read Zip files.
