Over the years, I've done character portraits for players of <a href="http://www.uo.com/">Ultima Online</A> based on the player's description of their char personality as well as what their avatar looks like. For instance, Sam Hane's avatar looks like <A HREF="http://www.andrea.net/uo/general/portraits/gfx/sam_hane_paperdoll.jpg">this</A>. The rest comes from my imagination.

Shannon the line on the forehead was originally just pixels that needed some recoloring to make the forehead smooth, but then I looked at it and thought: "Hey, that's sort of like vein or wrinkle and it makes him look more serious and rugged!" so decided to flaunt it and polish it up instead. :-) As for the eyes, the dot of light is definately not "realistic", but matched the person whose portrait I was making.
I love the amount of detail you've managed to cram into this little pixel- its amazing! I particularly like the lines of the forehead and around the mouth. Great colors and just the right amount of contrast too the little light dots on the eyes look a bit bright though
Dogmeat I've been playing UO since 1999, so not quite the veteran you are, but almost. I'm known as Saphireena on Stratics and post on U-Hall mostly. I play on Europa, although I also have a char on Siege Perilous. As for Mythic, well for now I'm just going to have to say "no comment" :).
