I want a new profile picture but I don’t like my photos.
Anyone know an artist where I can send them a bunch of photos and they draw me a headshot? I am thinking in a cel-shaded style or similar, but open to other ideas.

@samir I like your photo.
I like @Nickiquote’s drawing. He can tell you who did it. I cannot remember.
I also like @andycarolan’s work

@urlyman Thanks for the mention! I can definitely create a headshot profile pic from photos. Happy to give you a link to my ko-fi commissions page on request.
Also boosting for reach in case you prefer a different style. @samir @Nickiquote

Ah cheers for boosting! I also offer those kinds of commissions via vGen, although you don't need an account for it. I've attached the order page which has some of my previous commissions as samples!

@samir but also paying the work of a portraitist photographer can yield photos that are stunning
For inspiration here is the work of one of my faves (realistically you’re not travelling to France for a portrait , but jsut for inspiration)
