    I can see the point of using drawings though. It's the same as when typing many people in real life, and slowly getting a mental picture of what a certain type looks like, integrated from many real persons. A drawing can be made to match that, but a photograph is always of a single person.

    Aren't there supposed to be drawings for both genders?

    ENTp: I can def see a resemblance.
    ISFp: Can't tell
    ESFj: Maybe a little
    INTj: I can see what they're getting at.

    ENFj: Can't tell the gender. Maybe if it's female.
    ISTj: Could work
    ESTp: Don't know if it looks like anybody I've seen before, except for like a female Chris Nolan (who is ESTp, hmm).
    INFp: Yep, lol

    ESFp: A bit I suppose.
    INTp: Eh
    ENTj: It's got the Frankenstein head-shape right, but other than that not really.
    ISFj: Could work. Does seem IJ.

    ESTj: Not really.
    INFj: In a way it works. Take away the bitch eyebrows and I could see it better.
    ENFp: SUSAN BOYLE HAD A STROKE. Nah.
    ISTp: Looks more ISTj than anything else.

    I look like a mix of the EIE, ILI, and the ILE. I have seen SEEs that look very similar to the portrait given. Ehh I still dont put much value into VI, especially not these portraits.

    I agree kindof. But the thing is that these drawings capture something that cannot always be seen in photographs. They are like an image of what the type looks like, generalized from many different individuals or from observations of the same individual over time. That's what I like about these drawings. I can match these drawings to my mental image of certain people but not necessarily to a single photograph. Well, at least something like that.

    Ye. With that being said, one of these portraits reminds me a lot of myself in a couple of my photos or some occasions of viewing myself in the mirror.

    The feeling is like, "wow did this person just try to draw me?" But then, when you actually go to look at yourself its not there. It's some kind of memory that stands out. So perhaps it takes a certain quality to VI, not being able to use just 1/5 photos deemed acceptable.

    The other thing I must mention is, the type that reminds me of myself in these portraits does not fit her type description. Yet somehow its just there in the face, the whole profile, what she couldn't say about the type but really wanted to, or something.

    Based on my VI expertise in the past couple of years, I'm not really too fond of these portraits however. I've seen much clearer examples from other sources that are more witnessable/gaugeable/agreeable irl, and it doesn't really correlate with these either. I mean Filatova was the one who really didn't have a lot to say about Ni and so just lumped the fantasy types in with them. I don't expect her knowledge on the topic to be sufficient, likewise neither do I expect the hundreds of Russian members who voted on those type description polls to think that. They apparently think she lacks in understanding too.
