I have not the skills to finish what I've begun.
So, I'd like to hand this Sean Connery look-alike off to someone.
And also perhaps acquire him a portrait so that he may have some sort of dignity.
i like it i might give it a shot
Really? Thanks, man!
I really just don't have the skills for it.
Also, why has nobody ever attempted such a thing?
O_o
Hey, that looks pretty cool. I went ahead and attempted a portrait...but I should forewarn you that: A) I've never done this before B) I ripped the hair/ear off the 60 yr. old man sprite C) I didn't completely fix the palette D) I can't shade or draw worth shit.
And for some reason he kinda looks like Doogie Howser.
That's quite impressive.
Well, I think his hair should be abit spiky.
Perhaps not flat like that.

You win.
id say his hair would probably be brought back similar to delita's, it could potentially be long but i personally never pictured his hair longer under that.

no. no no no no no no no no no no no no no.
People, please start getting sick and tired of anime-influenced hairstyles. They are stupid as all hell.

Asmo, I didn't meant anime hairstyles. It's just I think the hair shouldn't be flat like that.
Perhaps something like this...(it still looks bit flat and weird though)
Thanks for all the feedback guys, but yeah, I should have taken more of his original sprite into consideration. His hair looks like it's being pulled back in the original portrait, but the sprites at the top of this page look only slightly pulled or slicked back.
This is what happens when I try to have it partially slicked back:
Yea. That's better than the first one
I was thinking his hair probably quite short and abit spikes up like the sprite.
Cause judging for hooded Orlandu, I think his hair is short and the front looks like bit spike.

Spikes are only anime influenced when they go crazy.
Hmm....perhaps.
But still, his hair shouldn't be too flat though ^^
The portrait doesnt show "spiky hair". It just shows some hair ruffled around around the fringe area. Orlandu would look fucking retarded with spiky hair. Mav has the right idea.
He looks so much younger in the Mav portrait, but that's about what I'd think his hair looked like. I guess the hood makes him look way older to me...
I like mav's portrait alot.
Still it does seem that his hair has at least one wild little tuft at the front, which adds some personality.
Also, the hood seems to be coming up too far in the back. More of his neck should be exposed.

Photobucket kinda turned it jpeg, so I'll post a png tomorrow after I get off work.
Wow....That's better ^^
Sorry for talking about spiky Asmo.
It's just that his front hair is a little tuft, like Kaze said.
So, his hair shouldn't be too flat.
But anyway, what I'm saying for spiky is not like those animes' hairstyles that spikes.
Just a little spike at the front or like what Kaze did here.
Still, sorry though for mentioning spike, Asmo.
Kaze, that looks ridiculous, sorry. Mav's version is far more dignified. Orlandu doesn't need some crazily primped hairdo that clears the top of the frame by a good margin.
i like what you did with the neck but the hair looks stupid. it should look ruffled not spikey
That portrait looks quite awesome--I especially like how you fixed the neck and collar, that was one huge problem with mine. Did you connect the beard/goatee to his sideburns? That's pretty suave looking, but personally I decided to leave 'em separate to distinguish him from some of the other bearded fellas, like Dycedarg and whoever else had a full beard.
These portraits are starting to remind me of Basch.
Yeah, I connected the beard and sideburns. He always struck me as that type of guy. Also, mav's portrait was larger than the frame, and I decided that it looked better to cut from the top than the bottom.
Edit: Here's the best portrait for Orlandu: http://static.open.salon.com/files/sean_connery_older1226353743.jpg
Except Orlandu still has hair and a widow's peak on his forehead. Maybe a somewhat younger version...
Aye, mine was a couple pixels too tall, and was a work in progress...a work I've made no progress on, but whatever. If anyone wants to fix it up, they can, as I probably won't go back to it for the next couple days.
EDIT: I got bored, so I tried making a couple alternatives. The first one is obviously the original, the second one was my previous attempt, the third and fourth are supposed to be with his hood down. Any suggestions?
