    if you look on ~
    http://www.terra-arcanum.com/characterb ... rtrait.php


    you'll see 5 portraits that are not in the normal game


    where can I get these extra portraits? :)


    if anyone could tell me it'd make me very happy

    I would take them from that page but the image quality isn't very nice :(

    I use that one of Jayna in my games and it looks just fine. Of course, a) anything is better than Jayna's original portrait, and b) I have really low standards anyway. :D

    Thanks :)

    I've looked on the first page of searching with the word "Portraits" but gave up

    i'll look again
    but if anyone has a link to the thread in question...that'd be nice as well :)

    I just want to find the "original copys" of those 5 new ones on that page

    ie uncompressed maybe in BMP form


    heres an edit of a dwarf i'm currently using, he's a Techno Gunmen named Ovid Balerock.

    edited by me (yes it's crappy I know but I like it :p)

    Yes. I've been on those Torment/BIS/IPLY boards for years and I think this is the first time anyone's ever noticed the fact.

    :sheds tear of joy:

    :D

    Right, the topic. I'm not sure about those NPC portraits, but the Arcanum demo has some other portraits that aren't in the final game. One of these days when I'm not being lazy I'm going to get the demo and see what sort of goodness I can extract from it.

    Oh, you're kAiN, aren't you?
