A man understands the difficulties, but a man can dream, no?

As HuskyWolf said, it would be a lot of work, but it can be done, with a dedicated section of the mod team. Would it have priority over the rest? No. Could it be done in the background, while other parts of the mod are completed and released? Perhaps. Would it distinguish the mod even more from the rest? Most certainly. Talk about a complete overhaul!

It would be great for sure, but atleast my doodlings would look really out of place next to them. I mean, they already do with paradox's heads. Unless of course he has bought clothes for DAZ too, then those could be used. Or if someone who can make 3d objects.

Anyway, I updated the last of the stuff for dornish people
Dornish females
-New headwear 1
-New clothes 1
Dornish males
-New headwear 1
Northmen females
-New headwear 1

Would be nice, but their inventory is hideously expensive for a completionist, as I've noticed.

400! Geez...

In any event, it might not work for you guys because I don't have the ability to do female renders. Because I only use DAZ to create renders for MMA games, I don't really have the clothes for this period either (well I have a few things, I'll look around).

I don't think the clothes are needed since they are laid over the character image in-game.

Would still need hair, though, I assume?

The hair, facial as well as on the heads is a seperate layer as well. So all that's needed really are basic, bland bodies, where other layers can be placed on. Even stuff like puffy cheeks etc. can be a seperate layer.

But then again, I judged this based on a quick glance in the portraits folder and after checking out the ruler editor, so perhs the more experienced facial editors can shed some light on this?

No, you'd definitely need to re-do all of them unless you can magically dial in the proper portrait angle.

Did some blending on two of the royal clothes, definitely not done yet. I decided to add an ermine.... thing. Sash? I don't know what to call it. Anyone, I decided to add an ermine thing on one of the royal clothes to make it look more medieval and more fancy.

It would be cool to change the LP clothes (King in Vanilla). The gold is only good for the Lannisters. the clothes of the Stark are good, but the Tully or the Martell still have gold clothes.

Those long ermine capes are called mantles.

I dug out my Costume Design book for this, so:

The clothing that GRRM describes varies since he's taking smatterings from everywhere, but it seems to be more Early Gothic (1200-1350) than Late Gothic (1350-1450). But there's also a bunch of Byzantine/Romanesque early Medieval stuff and, especially in the Free Cities and the bravo clothing, Renaissance, with it's big-ass leg-o-mutton sleeves and bright colors and slashing. This seems to put it mostly in the timeframe of what GRRM has said he was going for, which is to say, War of the Roses and Hundred Years War -- transition from High Medieval to Renaissance.

To make Dornish dress more Renaissance-y and silk-y without relying directly on Turkishgfx or anything, look into men's houppelande's with high, stiff collars, a mix of bobbed hair, straight Byzantine page-boy hair, and bowl cuts. Poor folk would be wearing fillets and coifs under their hats, but the chaperon with a long-ass liripipe going way down to their belt-loop was style-du-jour. Also, jeweled bandoliers.

Putting in a request for a non-culture specific black cloak (i.e., Night's Watch uniform) and for Wildling clothes.

Is it done?

Werther wrote:Is it done?

Yes, I've uploaded it (the Night's Watch outfit) to my team folder. Sorry for no other progress, I've been busy procrastinating since I'm on vacation.

It is a rare skill, maybe even more than map guys

Is there a way to use dlc portraits with the mod?

The African and mongol portraits are used for the Summer Islanders and Dothraki, so yes.
