Portraits Completed!

 Avee has completed all portraits for Penumbra Crystallis. Of the nine, I'm very happy with eight, and am pondering what to do with the ninth at the moment (which is, fortunately, for a character who won't join for 20+ hours). I'll probably make my own adjustments to it.

Anyway here's a peek at Oalston's portrait:

Unlike in Blackmoon Prophecy where Oalston was a stereotypical black mage with a blacked out face, you'll notice that Oalston's face is very much exposed and viewable in Penumbra Crystallis. Blackmoon Prophecy's Oalston was moderately young, but not so much here. In Penumbra Crystallis, Oalston is significantly older and is a retired court mage who possesses vast wisdom. When I was describing Oalston to Avee, I told him to just imagine Gandalf.

Also, don't worry, just because Oalston's older now doesn't mean that he's going to be another grumpy Hautley type of wizard. Oalston will be very wise and likely be the party's "second in command" after Vahn later in the story due to his mature and wise personality.
