Maybe the skin needs to be less green, more earthy.

I'm working on the diffrent seasons versions of Jaheira... for Winter should she have white skin or be really pale? Hmm...

Green lips are ok, aren't they? ^_^ Any-who, the half-drow looking fellow os Solarus, a NPC I've been thinking up... maybe someday something will come of him... ^_^

I like the guy, though the hair line needs to be less prominant. The green lips are cool, better than yellow :D

Yeah, I'm working on fixing his hair. I think I'm going to make and edit more portraits until I'm happy with him... :P

Well, frankly, I like the green lips better too. She's really beautiful now. :D As for the Winter version... I don't think the skin should be totally white... a touch grey-ish, perhaps. I suggest experimentation. Funny, I always imagine Jaheira having a well-tanned skin, so the pale version should look... odd!

Yeah, when I was messing around with her portrait, it did look a little unusual. It'll take awhile for it to look as cool as I want it too. ^_^ Should I make Viconia into a Dryad too?

Edit: And I'd make a diffrent edit for winter, I wouldn't use the one that's there.
Jaheira's hair looks cool in blue... you'll see soon! ^_^

The green lips on Jaheira remind me of the character "Jade" from the Green Lantern comic.

Yet another variation...

This time to make her shirt a bit more colorful. I think it's a nice change from the browns that seem to be in every one of the default portraits.

This follows the 3-color standard (green, blue and gold in this case) that comic character designers used to use. I think it applies here as well. It's a good rule, as it keeps costumes from being too cluttered with color.

i disagree. the yellow lips add reallism i guess (if that applicable). adds an earthy look instead of just looking green.

I agree with thecursed, The green lips work, but it makes her look like a She-hulk auditioner.

Earthy green dryad looks more natural. You could give her some light (yellow?) or maybe she is just sitting in a shadow ;)

Both pristess are nice, especially the Torm' servant. Portrais from the first page are great :) Kind of Andy Warhol's style.

Nice dryad Viconia :) Zombies are OK, but I just don't don't like the idea of alive dead ;) Good for NPC portraots you talk withc (aviable small ports in BG). Could be useful for modders :)
