Getting the ball rolling for Imoen

I was tempted to use a custom portrait for Imoen that I particularly like from BG2. I often use this one, especially when playing a run for the whole saga.

But at the end of the day I decided to go with Imoen’s BG1 portrait. It was playing BG1 that made me fall in love with the game. This is face of the first character that in my imagination joined me on my epic journey through the Sword Coast.

I’m currently in contact with a few artists about creating the STL file and printing the head sculpt. Getting it narrowed down as such, and will decide who I’m using in a day or two.

Not sure yet about rooted hair versus sculpted for Immy. Rooted can be rather expensive. I’m not sure if the results of rooted will really be worth the price tag. Sculpted can look great. I would imagine that especially if the print is very high resolution then it’s just going to be a matter of how convincing the paint job is.

Anyway please stay tuned as I’ll have an update in a day or two!
