I spent 4 painful hours on mine... partially because I realized I had the color of her outfit wrong and had to redo everything.
I even forked the $10 to change mine, since my first was my first character and I hadn't noticed the tilt-head thing; made it look like a mugshot. :(
I'm pretty happy with this result though. Along the way I made some interesting discoveries about the subtleties in human faces. Changing this one setting a teeny bit (narrowing the eyes) changed the look from cunning-skeptical to steel/cold-hearted.

I rolled Achura...whats the point? (Except maybe to get the just-eyes face so you can have an awesome SHOOP DA WHOOP sig)

Several people have already commented in game. You know the wrong people. :D And if you think noone looks at your portrait, why did you spend over two hours on it? Unless you ignored the title of the thread.

Not 2 hours.. but I spent some time on it for sure.
When I started playing I actually cared about the lore/possiblity of roleplay. Now I realize thats not really feasible in EVE.

I tried recreating a better version of mine, for like one hour, and I got disconnected a few times so I had to redo it, in the end the current portrait still looked better :D

Looks like you got a pretty good result! Oh yeah... I got disconnected too. That's why it took so long... wasn't the color.

it actually shows that you spent a few hours :) as for people not paying attention to how chars look, they do when it comes to buying and selling chars - if someone got a particularly ugly char i've seen on a few occasions other players would comment on it in the sell thread

This one took four or five attempts. The sides of the forehead look pretty jagged but otherwise I'm satisfied.

I don't remember how long i spent on mine. Must have at least been a half hour though.
On a side note, I had a corpmate hit random morph and his portrait looks eerily like backdoor bandit

This *waves hand over face* doesn't happen over night you know!
I think i spent, on the final picture, with the lighting and all, my hairstyle, the background, and such, nearly three hours.
But the pre-work was nearly, hmm, well, let's just say painful.
Even tried one of those minmatar wigs on way back when, can anyone say, highschool yearbook

While I didn't spend 4 hours it was around the region of 1 hour 30 minutes and I like it thats what counts right. |

Er, well... How's two weeks? Oh yes, two weeks after I jumped into the game I trashed my character to make a new one, simply because I didn't like the name and I didn't like the portrait.
I suppose I should admit, though, that the time I spent making this portrait, though long, was probably short of two hours (hey, working with Civire features can be discouraging).

I spent close to 3 hours on my portrait in total. To say however that "nobody" looks at portraits is in my opinion not accurate. I certainly do.
I will go out of my way to do business with or ask the advice of a player with a sharp well done portrait and a thoughtfully conceived and CAPITALIZED name.
Am I biased? You bet. Just like real life sloppiness and apathy don't get rewarded

I found the character creation fascinating and the best one yet. It took me quite a while before I settled, after like the others being bounced a couple times, on the current portrait. I was meticulous about the angle of the head too. hehe

Knowing that I rolled Achura, possibly one of the least "coolest" looking races in the game, I spent about an hour perfecting my toon.
I am pleased with the result. I think I look "good" for an Achura.

I really liek how your character has a look on his face like someone asked him a dumb question and he's responding with "Are you serious?". Nice.
I've been thinking of spending the $10 to redo my ugly mug, but I wonder if this will all get changed anyway once ambulation arrives.

it was hard to do a decent looking nikunni. your options are old, really old, or dirty old man. i tried to make him as young as possible. i didn't want to do the standard hooded face thing, most people's hoods cover up too much of the face. so i wanted to give him some personality yet partially obscured for a little bit of a dramatic effect. i did spend a lot of time on him, lighting, background, angle, still not super happy with his face specifically, but everything else i was happy with. i really couldn't do much better on a ni kunni. ____________________________ the greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist |

I'm flattered I must decline your offer however.
It would violate my husbands trust.
