Continuing from the previous post, with some other BG1 NPCs I am considering for a run with Keira and Kord.
Branwen
CN Human Cleric of Tempos
Branwen is a little tricky. Definitely has the viking warrior woman vibe going, but she doesn’t look like a Valkyrie or a member of the Swedish bikini team. And her face has more of a “tired American mom” look to me than straight “Swedish goddess of war”. So I tried for a look that says, “serious woman warrior who has seen some s**t”.
“strong american warrior woman,age 35,warrior,leather tunic over viking armor,puffy face,round face,haggard,tired,leather headband,long honey blonde hair,necklace,stout;fantasy hillside ;oil paint,drawing,dark fantasy,rpg portrait, soft focus, blurred, minimalist features,d&d, dark shading“
Coran
CG Elf Fighter/Thief
I’m not terribly fond of Coran’s original portrait. To my mind he should be smooth, cocky, conceited, handsome, and an unbearable flirt. While still being quite skilled at his chosen profession. So I’ve tried to capture all of that with a “flirty Irish model” look.
“30 year old irish elf rogue flirting with viewer,bare face,handsome,conceited,athletic,leather armor,brown shirt,swagger,flirty,face tattoos,purple cape,brown hair,brown eyes;in the forest ;oil paint,drawing,dark fantasy,rpg portrait, soft focus, blurred, minimalist features,d&d, dark shading”
Drake Caulfield (NPC Mod)
NG Human Cleric of Tyr
Drake is described as “crude, sarcastic, and cynical”. His pictures looks to me like a big german soldier. So I tried to lean in to that for this portrayal.
“35 year old large german man,hungover,heavyset,strong jawline,five o-clock shadow,cynical expression,soldier,strong build,weathered,haggard,worn chainmail armor,short dark brown hair,dark blue eyes,worn dark blue tunic;oil paint,drawing,dark fantasy,rpg portrait, soft focus, blurred, minimalist features,d&d, dark shading“
Garrick
CN Human Bard
Garrick is a layabout, who looks and sounds like he would rather daydream about adventures than actually live them. So I go for the “permanent college student” look of a guy who always has his head in the clouds.
“young polish man daydreaming, age 25, long puffy face,clean-shaven,simple brown cape,simple leather armor,bard,short toussled brown hair,brown eyes,chin in hand;in a small medieval town;oil paint,drawing,dark fantasy,rpg portrait, soft focus, blurred, minimalist features,d&d, dark shading”
And as before, just for fun, Imoen trying to get a rise out of each of them…
Branwen trying desperately to ignore her
Coran playing along with her
(He’d probably actually flirt with her, but I don’t care to depict that)
Drake trying to get her to see how the world really is
Imoen and Garrick swapping stories at a campfire
