Today's patch added the new character pictures to a few celebrities of the EVE universe. CONCORD seems to not have the ISK to hire good photographers, though. I think they did not get quite all out of the characters that they could.
Jamyl Sarum, Empress of the Amarrian Empire.

After:
Malaetu Shakor, Sanmatar of the Minmatar tribes.
Before:
After:
Ladies and Gentlemen, the Sanmatar has left the building.

Funny as the new portraits are, there's a distinct lack of gravitas or belivability now I hope they take advantage of tomorrows final free portrait make-over. |

Tibus Heth doesn't seem to have a new portrait, even.

Sarum's usually-excellent media minders seem to have slipped. Or perhaps turquoise eye shadow is a marker of terrifying beauty to other Amarrians.
I'm delighted that Matari gene-tech has at last remedied the Sanmatar's congenital blindness. The side effect of rejuvenated hair growth seems likely to be very welcome on the market.

Odd. I was under the impression we were going to be custom making important NPC portraits. Perhaps there's been an issue or delay with that.
Will investigate!

The new portraits look like the handiwork of Mr. Random Picture-Generator. At least they have shirts - be thankful for that at least :)

Okay, quick update for you guys.
Turns out I wasn't hallucinating. We did in fact have plans to do this. Thing was, the team responsible for okaying the new portraits (not making them) was also busy with actually, like, making the character creator, so it fell off for this release.
The short of it is that these current portraits won't last forever. They'll likely be changed around February with a static update. Those that have art from chronicles and other canon (such as Sarum, Heth, etc) should have that art placed instead. I'm not sure if we actually created all of the portraits, either, so this gives us time to make sure we cover all the bases.

Thank you. The creation system was more important than hand-rolling the big-name NPC portraits, but the random results did lead to a few >.< moments.

I won't deny that.
Sarpati looks like the lovechild of Eminem and Bronson.

Minor Plug to give us a nice painting of our racially True Amarr ruler King Khanid II (like the Jamly one), so we can hang his portrait around the KPV offices :)
Perhaps him sitting on his golden throne with his notorious harem not far behind

Yeep, that would be nice^^.... he is really missing like the whole Khanid Family, but I thought, there's no reason not to create one .

Hahaha! I hadn't thought to look. Especially Shakor looks... so wrong!
I second the idea of a proper portrait for the King :)

Might also want to make sure the CEO of the Vherokior is no longer a Brutor while you're in there...

Also the Jovian character Veniel (from Forsaken Ruins) doesn't seem to have a portrait. Did you not include the Jove in the new system?

It is indeed.
I just poked the guys who are working on this for an update. I do know that most if not all of the portraits have been updated. The remaining work is complicated database stuff (which has been the reason why this isn't a ten minute job).
Anyways, bear with us, you should get an updated ETA soon.

Hi guys,
The characters slated for new portraits in the first iteration are:
Souro Foiritan Jamyl Sarum Tibus Heth Jacus Roden Maleatu Shakor Mentas Blaque Salvador Sarpati Mens Reppola Karin Midular Sansha Kuvakei Omir Sarikusa
For characters where an agent doesn't currently exist in-game, the relevant character will be created and placed in the relevant corp. This has taken a while due to cross-departmental interdependencies and task reprioritization, but the good news is that the portraits are all created and approved. All that remains is assigning a programmer and we're good to go. We'll be sure to let you know when that happens. Shouldn't be long now at all.
