UU: Stygian Abyss Faces Art

I'm considering working on a mod. I don't want to give details until I read through the documentation and actually do it for real!

I don't want to be one of those who creates interest by posting a screen shot or two and some hot air with nothing behind it. I have nothing but ideas in a notebook right now!

Anyway, I'm interested in possibly using the faces from Ultima Underworld: Stygian Abyss for this because they were a similar art style and similar size to the ones used in Black Gate. I figure I could just use photoshop to place the appropriate town border around each one and have a passably good NPC image.

My question is, does anyone have these images, including avatars, human, troll and goblin NPCs? Ghouls, maybe; mountainfolk and lizardmen, no. I know a lot of people have been working on NPC images for other mods lately and was hoping someone had already collected these. My goal is to keep with the BG style, not SI! Thanks in advance!

Also: I guess it goes without saying I'd also need the empty picture borders from Black Gate too if anyone has those.

I never bothered to extract them for two reasons. The first is that the viewer had palette issues, the second was that there was an icon set at http://www.stygianabyss.com/uw/decomorono/index.htm which contains the portraits. You might be able to work from those.

Thanks a ton! I google searched for these a number of ways and this website never came up. I appreciate it.
