🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since it's a portrait mod, make sure to place it in your Crusader Kings II mod folder and activate it in the launcher before starting the game.
If you're using other portrait mods, check load order — this one should probably be loaded after to ensure its changes take effect.
The mod is from 2016, so if you're playing with the latest DLC, test it out early to see if portraits look right.

⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Community favorite with 6,130 endorsements — clearly a lot of players dig it.
- Huge download count (166k+) shows it's been battle-tested by the community.
- Stays true to the original art style, so it won't clash with the game's aesthetic.
👎 Cons
- Last updated in 2016 — might not be compatible with the latest game patches or DLC.
- No detailed feature list or screenshots in the description, so you're flying blind on what exactly changes.
- Only touches up portraits, so if you wanted full visual overhauls or new content, this isn't it.
