hmm... my son just stepped in the room while I was view these portraits of nathyrra. His comments, "the first one looks like a Drow, the others look like smooth skinned little [child] elves." There you have it from my 11 yr old "expert". :)
I think the the pictures are well done. The original,IMHO, has a much more dangerous look. The others present a softer Nathyrra. I like the higher cheek bones.

For those interested, the "little girl look" is likely (at least partly) because the cheekbones have been softened, giving her a rounder face, and her nose is smaller.
Not sure I like the softer cheekbones -- high, well-defined cheekbones are one of the things that give elves their "timeless" look. And when it comes to Nathyrra's first appearance, I think something more dangerous-looking and less "young and cute" is more fitting.
Meh, nothing wrong with having well-made options around. And no one said this had to (only) be used for Nathyrra. But I still can't decide what this should be rated, so the author is going to have to make do with just commentary from me.

You really took 400 years out of her. I give 10 cause now we have 2 usable portrait of the same person at different age which is awesome! _________________________ [Enhanced class icons] - Last updated [07-20-2008] [Enhanced skill icons] - Last updated [07-26-2008]

I like yours much better. The original looks like a gnome in drag. I disagree with the comments that she looks childish. The original portait may be a bit childish looking but you've improved it immensely. Good work

I agree with Berra, though Jamine does have a point with the 'little girl look'. Though I am not entirely sure why.
It does deserve a 9 however.
