This mod was created using a combination of the Swap Face App—featuring faces of various celebrities and athletes—AI art generator and GIMP for detailed corrections and final touch-ups.

Human empires in Stellaris often come across as the most generic and underwhelming option compared to other species. This mod is a simple customization project that adds a wide range of diverse and distinctive human portraits. The goal is to give humanity a stronger visual identity and help human empires stand out — even if just a little bit — to make them feel more unique, immersive, and enjoyable to play.

This mod adds over 550 completely new, high-quality portrait faces to Stellaris, significantly expanding visual diversity while staying true to the game’s aesthetic. Among them is a brand new European phenotype, originally created by Lin Nacume — with heartfelt thanks for their outstanding contribution (see credits below).


I’ve got a bunch of ideas for Stellaris – event chains, origins, civics, and other story-driven content that fits into the game’s lore and flavor. I understand the basics of scripting and what the engine can do, but I don’t really have the time (or the coding chops) to make these ideas fully work on my own.
If you’re someone who enjoys the modding/scripting side of Stellaris and would like to team up on a hobby project, I’d love to collaborate. This isn’t commercial – just for fun and for the satisfaction of building something cool. You’d get full credit and a say in the creative direction.
If that sounds like your kind of thing, feel free to reach out. Let’s see what we can put together.
