Well, this has graced the Mountaineer and old Free Company forums so I thought I'd put it up here as well. It might be cursed or something though, I warn you now! This was an attempted portrait of Caliyen by Ulgarf of the Mountaineers. It's a bit infamous amongst some of the people I roleplay with as he took the brief of 'not curvy, a little masculine' to a new and frankly frightening place! If anyone can spot the hand-drawn forest that he asked me to pay for, I'd be glad to hear from you.  Left is the original portrait and right is an attempt by Gabbleton to fix it up a little. |

Gosh, if someone took the time to PAINT a picture of my character, I'd be bowled over with gratitude even if it was a bit wonky.  But actually it's pretty okay. I'd use it. Starlight has an amazingly good artist who sometimes produces beautiful little character cartoons and portraits just for fun. You can check out her work on their forum. Highly recommended! Of course, she has a looooong waiting list for portraits. Anyone here have any artistic leanings? It occurs to me that you could do a nice job relatively easily by just taking a screenshot, repainting it, and changing the bits that should be slightly different. But although I draw a mean stick figure, anything more beautiful than that is far beyond me. |

Heh, its the undead being that is Caliyen! To speak in Ulgarf's defense though, he did make this painting of Celegil a bit earlier. Note that I only asked that he painted the character so the background is just a stock screenshot. My jaw just dropped when he came back with this. Its beautiful in my opinion. I'd still like a picture of Celegil and Kailahan later on by someone, but I'm already happy with this one ^^ images2.wikia.nocookie.net/scarteleu/images/7/70/CelegilbyUlgarf.jpgHad to gave a link, the original dimensions are postersize and our forum really doesn't like that.And I just took a look on the Starlight forums. Man, she got some skill, unbelievable. |

I've been drawing all my life. I'm not very good at digital art though, as it's something I've only attempted twice. Pen and paper / oil and canvas is what I use mostly. Ulgarf has skill though, despite a few bad eggs. Seen his Overwatch Combine on youtube? |

I do some drawing.. but certainly not up to Ulgarf's standard, and I am limited by the fact that I can only seem to draw portraits with any consistency. Plus... Night Elves are hard, man!  |
