Putting a Face to the Name
When I was first introduced to the world of roleplaying games, it was through Dragon Quest by TSR.
I would spend a lot of time just looking at the gorgeous artwork of the books.
The red dragon pictured inside, was so vivid that I can still recall it, and it’s how I imagine red dragons up to this day.
I find that visualization is an important aspect in roleplaying, and anything that helps in visualization, is a great aide to the game in general.
Alas, my drawing skills are nowhere close to good (maybe someday I will practice them along with other things I would like to learn to do better but never had the time). So I have to resort to software tools to help me- and here are the tools I stumbled upon to create faces for the protagonists of my Star Wars D6 sandbox solo play.
First I used the face generator in http://thispersondoesnotexist.com until I found a result I liked (lots of rerolls, mind you).
Then I used a sketch filter (my personal choice- Heisenberg from Prism app) to give a cartoonish look.
So here is Roy

..and here is Luca
