Oh yah. Speaking of NWN2, are you going to start doing textures (and models) if portraits are no more (as they are using in-game model for the character box as of the E3 demo)? I'm sure we would all appreciate Phaere-grade quality facial/clothing textures to play with when the out-of-the-box stuff gets old or just won't do. XD Thanks. :D

It's sad that the detractors are getting to you as your work is appreciated by many.

Another 10.00 to an excellent Portrait.

I agree with Sir Rigfield Nightkin 100%! Dont pay heed to those people who are jelous of you and your talent. You are one of the very best Portrait maker on the Vault. Hell you are one of the best Portrait makers to NWN, period! What you and a few other Portrait makers have contributed to NWVault and NWN is without comparison. I am often looking for new Portraits here on the Vault and if I see Phaere have posted a new Portrait I know it is 9 times out of 10 an excellent Portrait which usualy ends up in my NWN Portrait folder. Seeing you leaving NWVault is sad news and a huge loss. I urge you to reconsider.

Pay no heed to these visual illiterates. I myself am an art connoissuer and I say that you belong to the league of elite artists like Luis Royo _________________________ obscurum per obscurius

Such scintillating pulchritude. Stupendous work. Your departure shall be a great loss to this community. I hope you renege on your decision to leave. Please do reconsider. _________________________ obscurum per obscurius

A word of great thanks to all the people who have always supported and voted for my work. I've had some good responses and some bad ones. But it was all good, because all I wanted was to make portraits for the community, to put a little extra choice in the game. That my portraits got in the toprated list and HOF was super,when I first started making portraits a few years back I never thought I would get that far. And I've always remained loyal to the vault because that's where I started and I always got such positive responses. But lately I have read some rather upsetting posts here. About how I cheated myself into the top-rated list, and how I vote for my own works. Whatever! I have posted here for over two years and I have NEVER voted for any of my works. What's the point anyway? People have voted for me because they know me and they like my work, that's it. I wanted to share my portraits with everyone but I don't need this kind of nonsense. That's why I've decided to leave the vault. I will leave my pics up for anyone to use, and people interested in any new works can visit my website. But I'm done here. No new stuff. I'm sorry, but sadly some people have taken the fun out of it for me. I wish the Neverwinter Vault and Maximus all the best. Looking forward to NWN2. :)

Good background...good dress...but this is a portrait contest, and the main thing is the character and HIS FACE (in my opinion).

Exceptional! You obviously put a lot of time and effort into this one. You should be very proud of your work.
