Go ahead, think I'm childish. Fan art, voilá.

I've made a few fan art pics of BG2, and I somehow wanted to hear what YOU think about them, as you a familiar with the game. I really hope you won't laugh me out of this place.

First. Imoen. It's weird, I know. It's supposed to be.

And then, Bodhi. Two versions.

What do you think?

That's odd. Try copy&paste the links and hit spacebar after the address. Hope it helps.

*squeals annoyingly* :D

Excellent ideas. :) I've been drawing fanart of BG2 for a long time... Jaheira and Ano make some of the best picture topics. :D

If I only had a scanner... :o ;)

Wonder what parts of Anoweenie you like drawing, AC! :p :p :p

Liked the last one of Bodhi, it´d be cool if her skin was slightly paler and she had no pupils. Just a thought. :)

nice pictures!

I've only recently got into the whole RPG craze, but I like art so maybe I'll have a go at some too... I wanna make some of Minsc! :D

I really like that one of Imoen that you did ... It's really creative. Did you use photoshop for effects like that ?

It kinda reminds me of Marilyn Monroe but with our very own Imoen. :D REALLY GOOD!!!

*Begins sketching out Jeasha... with numerous sharp and pointy things sticking into his body* :p :p

Voo-Doo-Jeasha. :D

By the way, Khimara, was this done in Paint Shop? I recognize some of the special effects in there to be the same as my system, but can't really tell for sure. :)

Phew, I'm so relieved. I really thought that you guys wouldn't like my work at all.

I use Paint Shop Pro 7, and Imoens effects are done by it too. I remember, I was bored out of my mind and I started to play with PSP7.

I know, that Bodhi's skin should be a lot paler, but I realized it too late. Thanks everybody, I got some more self-cofidence. :)

You got to teach me to do that stuff with PSP.

I know.. it's such a difficult system to learn! But if you play around with it enough, you can really come out with some nice effects. :) I have the PSP7, and I've made some cute litle graphics myself. :)

As I said before, good pics, Khimaira. :)

Yep, as AC said, you just have to play around with it [PSP7] and you'll get the hang of it sooner or later.

Thanks, my next projekt is Viconia, and I already started it. :)

the one of Imoen doesn't really look her at all but the Bodhi's are good, overall these are pretty good pictures, nice job.

yeah but not everyone there has played Baldur's Gate 2, also you'd need to find a picture (or host one yourself) of how that the people that you drew a picture of looked like. (and a faceset wouldn't tell much for draws of bodies, and the game's body looks are too small to get a good look at.)

Yeah, we have. Almost all of us have at least tried it. ;)

Sorry to disappoint you, but very nearly every one of us at SYM came in through BG or BG2... :)

Oh, look at that. x) I never even noticed the whole forum. Well, now that I finally noticed that there is something like that - and now that I know, that people will know what I'm talking about there too - I'll make further posts of this subjekt to SYM. Thank you all. *bows*
