    Hello everyone,

    I've created two new Baldur's Gate II wallpapers for the evil 'shattered-one' Irenicus and the dark and beautiful Viconia.

    Please check them out. The webmaster has been kind enough to add them to the Miscellanea Section

    Anyway, I might make some more NPC wallpapers if you are interested. Please tell me what characters you would like to see - and what backgrounds should accompany their pictures. Some of the things that have come to mind, I posted below:

    • Aerie - Circus tent, inside (during Kalah's illusions), ...
    • Anomen - High Order of the Radiant Heart, Temple of Helm, his home
    • Cernd - Druid Grove, ...
    • Edwin - ??? :hmm:
    • Haer'Dalis - The play, Planar Prison
    • Imoen - Candlekeep (BG 1), ...
    • Jaheira - Any outdoors picture (BG 1 or BG 2), Harper Stronghold, ...
    • Jan - His home, his turnip factory, ...
    • Keldorn - His home, High Order of the Radiant Heart, ...
    • Korgan - ??? :hmm:
    • Minsc - Knoll Stronghold (BG 1), ...
    • Mazzy - Trademeet, ...
    • Nalia - de-Arnise Castle, the slums, ...
    • Valygar - Planar Sphere (External), Planar Sphere (Control Room), ...
    • Yoshimo - ??? :hmm:

    Mazzy could certainly be at the Altar of Patrick...

    Korgan in any pub; especially the Coronette.
    Edwin alone in the Council of Six building - he would *love* that power :D
    Nalia in hell- that`s where she belongs for being such a crappy thief :p
    Minsc in the asylum. :grin:
    Yoshi in Aran Linvail`s room, wearing Elven Chain, by himself, facing the camera (or so to speak). :)

    [​IMG] Those two wallpapers are already awesome. Great idea.

    I second Mazzy at the altar of Patrick, once you have killed the Shade Lord and all is nice.

    I second Korgan in the Copper Coronet.

    I second Keldorn in the Radiant Heart.

    I second Valygar in the Planar Sphere Control Room

    I second Aerie inside the Circus Tent w/ Illusions

    Suggested/Specific Revisions:

    Cernd with the backdrop being the Druid Grove. Torn between inside of Druid Grove or just outside with the circle of stones.

    Nalia with the backdrop of the guards fighting the red Yuan-Ti captain and two trolls right after you let down the drawbrige.

    Haer'Dalis in the playhouse, on the stage, as the portal is opened and fire elementals and shadows are coming out.

    New Suggestions:

    Jaheira with Tree of Life/battle with Irenicus backdrop

    Imoen with collapsed tunnel in Waukeen's Promenade, confrontation with Irenicus, and Cowled Wizards backdrop.

    Yoshimo with battle with Irenicus in the Asylum backdrop.

    Minsc with backdrop of the initial dungeon room you begin the game in.

    Edwin with backdrop of fighting Mae'Var and his goons. Maybe show some good spell effects being used on them.

    Anomen with backdrop of fighting Firkraag.

    Bodhi with backdrop of fighting Bodhi in her lair (Chapter 6). Or backdrop of Graveyard at night.

    And Jan with the backdrop of him giving one of his speeches ... anywhere. :p

    First, thanks for great wallpapers, Blackhawk! :)

    And then:
    Edwin - Red Wizards of Thay (BG1, Area E of Larswood), Sorcerous Sundries
    Yoshimo - Thieves Guild
    Jaheira - Wilderness area before Suldanesselar

    I hope you'll make Ellesime wallpaper too :)

    [​IMG] I would love to create a wallpaper for Bodhi - but the only picture I have of her is the little one used during dialog.

    If anyone knows where I can get a normal sized version, I will be most grateful.

    [​IMG] I've been able to enhance a picture of Bodhi for a wallpaper. But what background should I use?

    Choices of background:

    -pit of spikes (vampire lair);
    -pool of blood (vampire lair, downstairs);
    -graveyard (pyramid, obelisk of Kalimvor).

    [​IMG] Another Viconia. In a graveyard. No, wait, let that be in a grave with a sword through her instead! I can't stand Viconia.

    Seirously, Aeire and the circus tent would be good, as with Cernd and the druid grove.
