I really rate this thread.

I'm so pleased that Hyperion brought this idea to our attention and he deserves the credit for making many of us aware of this art form.

But I have to say I really like your input here Lum.

I like faces I can identify with, be they human looking or alien.

Thanks Victor, I really appreciate your comments

I think is a very cool idea and hope we can see something similar for NPC icons/avatars in the game. That could add some immersion to the game!

I can't help but think of Asimov's The Naked Sun when I read through this and look at everything - in particular the part where Gladia was showing Baley her light-form art.

Never thought of that. My last re-read run was about 8 years ago

Nice catch, though

Couldn't resist

Edit: I think those glitches there on the neck are because of resizing to fullscreen...

Josh has hinted in a past devlog that it might be going in - no "official" word, though.
