[Toho]

if anyone is purchasing GW2 next month please contact me. after seeing this I think we have found WTW solution to the custom portraits problem.





this youtube user also made Tyrion but it is not that great. maybe you guys can create a really ugly male thats missing his nose?

[Antoniusz]

i had a good laugh at the body customizer. can one perhaps choose and exact BMI? and the first one looks like ygritte, and not a bit like cat. arya is closest, though to prettyfied. and danys face isnt quite right either....oh, i must be grumpy today.

[The First Triumvirate]

I don't know they look pretty good to me and they are damn realistic. Maybe this could be used for in game portraits.

thats what I was thinking instead of us hunting down good portraits that resembles Amok's for every character in game. Noobas and the previous team got most of the main characters in but we have 4 times that number of princesses, generals, captains, agents and etc that need portraits, of course we are not going to copy the HBO actors but make our own interpretation of how these people looked like.
perhaps the main characters can be inspired from amok and the rest just randomize?
I am not much of an MMO person to purchase this but if anyone is getting this could really help us out.

I would simply use amoks portraits, i like them more- And they fit the game more than a 3d portrait, imho. There are also several other good artworks out there which can be used; Hell i`d even like the vanilla ones more than 3d stuff.

[Hopelessly Hopeless]

I agree. Amok's are good interpretations of character descriptions, with, IMHO, a few exceptions (Cat and Sansa come to mind).

It would be awesome to use drawings and interpretations from more than one source (that might become necessary if, say, Amok hasn't made a portrait for one or more characters). However, that might mean less consistence/not as much uniformity (which is either good or bad, dunno).

But 3Ds are nowhere near as appealing as Amok's portraits, to me at least.
