A Land Far Away

So... since we can't really have IG custom portraits for our PCs, I thought maybe we could have a thread of PC pictures, what do you all think? I want to know what you envision your toons to look like beyond a short description and computer graphics!

So, without further adieu, here is Corina:

Being no artist myself I scrounged the internet and couldn't really find quite what I had in mind for Berendil, but this gets it somewhat close:



I always envisioned him as a lot more rough around the edges, well worn tunics and pants, dusty, dingy, muddy, bits of armour strapped on where it suits him. Very well worn and customized gear. I'm pretty happy with how I have him looking in game, but no where near 'lived in' enough.

My avatar's pretty close, but with brown hair and a short, well trimmed beard.

Like this one too:

(edit) All-right I was called on that the picture was too pretty. Now I have to figure out how to mere Jack Sparrow and DAO Morrigan into a cohesive whole. Is there such a think as dirty-pretty?

AH-HA! Kate Beckinsale in Rise of the Lycans!
Dirty!

A (non-smiling) Lee Marvin or James Coburn

This picture is pretty close to Grull, give or take some...

(Without the armor of course)

Nice tusks there Rorax

For Corio, think Vin Diesel with a nasty scar. Don't know how to post pics, sorry.

hit IMG button then past the direct link to the image file like this [img]paste%20here[/img]

you can get direct image links from the web by right clicking on an image, choosing properties, selecting the web address listed like http://me.de.com/elf.jpg, and copying it.

then it would look like [img]http://me.de.com/elf.jpg%20[/img] no quote marks

preview or submidt and voila'

that's one beat up vin diesel...

With beardgems, of coarse...and a beard twice as long.

Vin Diesel? *scratches head with a perplexed expression* Totally didn't see that one. See why pics are so important?!

Lou nominated the Simon Tam character from Firefly as pretty close for Ashton, for looks and some mannerisms; found a picture with glasses even...

Peta Wilson is pretty good for Dawn.

I'm really liking this thread, adds some life to the characters for me. I hadn't realized how much I missed portraits and the like, we should do threads like this more, more detailed descriptions, pictures etc. Good on ya
