Hello, this is an update. I would like to thank everyone for sharing their support for this replacer. I am unable to maintain this replacement any further, as such - I would like to inform everyone that they may use or derive the work of this mod as they please and upload derivatives in the Nexus Mods listing for Starsector without my express permission or anyone elses. However, please take note that these derivatives should follow Nexus Guidelines (make sure the changes are big enough for it to be suitably called 'another mod') and is beyond my scope.
This modpack will most likely be no longer be updated with more portraits - but will receive version bumps as needed.
Thank you for your support for the Himawari Potrait Packs.
I have been running a model to generate similar portraits after maintenance ended for the mod. Mine don't match the Himawari style completely, and they're not as polished.
Some examples:
But if people would like to use them anyway, I can maybe see about making it available.
You can probably do that yourself? The OG author apparently stopped maintaining this mod, which is pretty sad since this has literally the best anime style vanilla portrait replacer mod bar none.
These are really good, is there going to be male portraits in the future?
Edit:
I've altered this mod using the portraits from the regular portrait pack removing the extra waifus and instead made a more balanced spread (keeping the thematically appropriate pictures to the right faction) would it be alright if I upload or link the altered files for those who want female and male portraits for their faction and the vanilla factions?
Thanks for your mod, it is great. Starsector recently updated to version 0.97, would it be possible to get a version bump? I think it should be fully compatible otherwise.
Was looking through the replacer files and found some mistakes
portrait_pirate01.png is still the original one, since it's quite similar to portrait_pirate03.png I just use a copy of it to replace the portrait_pirate01.png
dardan_kato.png is still original and the mod version is named dardan_kator.png instead, removing the original from files and changing the name of dardan_kator.png to dardan_kato.png fixes that problem
Hello, I been messing around with that new fangle image generation; imgtoimg and such. Any who, I touched up and made some alternates to a few of your replacer portraits; Corporate06, League02, the original Pirate03, as well as Cotton and Augusta Roa to name a few. Not too much change, just a little dialing in. If you think you'd like to check them out, maybe add them to the mod, just let me know and I can send em your way to have look see. Great mod.
What exact settings did you use converting the base game portraits to those presented?
There is a distinct art style difference between the converted original images and the add on portraits. I'm not talking about clothing styles or the character designs, but instead the shadowing, highlighting and image finish. I'd like to standardize those aspects throughout the library of portraits you have in your mod to the same standard as the converted original portraits.
If you'd like to do it yourself and post or if you could let me know what your program settings where, I'd greatly appreciate either option.

Yes you can create your own Nexus Mod item, upload or anything. I do not mind. No need to add credits that its a derivative of this work either.
It might also need an update for the vanilla replacer
