2012 Huo Hu Award Voting: Best Portraits
Nominees:
Rise of Ieyasu (by sonic penguin 2012)
Also nominating Rise of Ieyasu for Best Portraits for all the new characters & portraits. Totally new world + totally new characters + totally new portraits.
Not to mention the great portrait work, as from my understanding was done in part by MiDKnight (for expanded portrait code) as well as Sonic (for all the portrait designs and graphics).
Yuan Shao's Revenge (by MiDKnighT 2010-2012)
Yuan Shao mod – I remember a Wu mod created by CaoJay also had very good portrait insertion, but this gets my nomination.
Yuan Shao's Revenge. I have portrait/sprite envy
Yuan Shao mod was the first one I played that used new portraits,sprites outside of DOAE. While not necessarily my favorite choice of open mouthed individuals, it was the first to use these + new colors which other mods are using like the Yuan Shu and Rise of Lu Bu Mod.
First DoaE with all the DoaE 2 / DoaE 3 portraits, ensures that each character has his / her own portrait.
Destiny of an Emperor 2.0: Rise of Lu Bu (by sonic penguin 2011-2012)
First some cleverly spliced original portraits then brand new unique portraits gets the nomination from me.
