Now this portrait has a long history. The pencil drawing was made well over a year ago--intended to be a Drow male for BG II (sorry, never go around to it). In April, it was painted as an Aasimar for use as a PC portrait for CoDI--glowing, metallic gold skin and all. Very recently the image was repainted as the Aasimar you see here, though it may have wider use as an Elf--a metallic-tinged Elf, I suppose. Original art; pencil rendering painted using Photoshop.
I love the thoughtful look on his face -- very elvish! It's nice to seem some older people represented in portraits, too. _________________________ Time Becomes a Loop - short, story-driven time travel mod!

One one the most beautiful portraits I've seen around here *recovers jaw on the keyboard*

Sporeboy is the best hands down. This is a great portrait!

What I really love about this painting is how impossible it is to determine the age of the character. The graying hair is coupled with a very young face, with the exception of the eyes...which seem to have experienced so much. Very nice.

All your artwork is fantastic, and this is among your best.

Well, me and my friends are going to use it for BGII. ;) This an excellent portrait. I also use it for NWN, and have for a while.
