The portrait is a upgraded version of the original, the original was more red in overall on that page. I gave her appropriate propotions with something more fitting to her character. She is not a "lara croft" type, nor a bombshell as a character after all and if you check her voices she is rather a girl that loves credit cards and shopping in a mall. ^_^
I wanted to be loyal to the original characters, that's why I gave her what she has.
Like I said before I wanted to introduce future versions of these characters but people wanted the originals back, so I went back and upgraded the original pictures, gave them fitting bodies and added the original voices with additionaly new created sounds.

Hair color I think is more auburn(reddish-brown) not blonde - check the original avatar from game. https://jaggedalliance.fandom.com/wiki/Megan_%22Sparky%22_Roachburn

your current body

looks a bit off.
something like this would be better

or can you make another mod/duplicate it and call it something else like alternate sparky or something

I like your image (even you have a readhead while Sparky is blonde)but the reason I kept the original ones was because when I updated some people hated them and asked for the originals.
Thatt's why I upgraded the graphics of the originals and recreated their voices by adding additional voices to the original ones through cut and past of words of the original files or by modifying them with AI to create new words with the same voice. :)

Thank you for loading Sparky from JA1. Not many gave her the love she deserves. She was mainly a mechanic not a fighter after all. Anyhow she needs a visual improvement/modernization in my opinion (either way she'd be more grown up/older/mature in JA3 than JA1), please can you use a image similar to this. https://ibb.co/HfsfGngS
yes my AI skills not good.

edit if needed

@sniper_kitten. I put all voice files through a audio software increasing their quality as far as possible while also lowering their volume at the same time. :)
Still not exact like the in game sounds but much better then before for sure.
Thanks a lot for your kind words aswell, doing it not only for me but most of all for the JA community that loves the series since the first game like me. :)

Images Updated. Original Face Image Quality changed, Updated and used.
Voice Files Normalised, Quality increased, Volume decreased (they were too loud).
A couple of commands might still be a tiny bit louder but still not as loud as before.

I love seeing all those old mercs brought back, even when their stories have to be tweaked a bit for it. So thanks for your work

My biggest complaint is that their voicefiles seem to be terrible LOUD compared to the vanilla JA3 merc voices, which gets a bit jarring on Megan, and on Donna "Spider"

Now full voiced with partially specials when it comes to her Brother Larry.
Also changed her Equipment to her original Equips she had in JA1. :)

I didn't add the her JA2 Bio because it was a alumni bio saying she quit being a merc and that's not fitting since I brought her back as a merc. Besides she likes Larry. The brother she disliked was Gary. Only Nails, Len and Skitz (not in the game) dislike her.

As about Lynx, I gave mine his original lore from JA2 In JA1 he was with buzz together, in JA2 they were already split and she hated him).

No the face is the same, minus pixel art and with AI added instead.
Now how about you update her bio to the one from JA2, as opposed to JA1, update wise, just so tyou know she should'nt be there. Also there's a thing with the Roachburns. So let's hope pretty much 4/3 of the AIM roster pretty much HATES Megan Roachburn, right? (Including her own brothers?)

How about the next thing, then? Mike coming back to life, maybe? As an encore thanks to the effort of uninsightful newbie Jagged Alliance players who have yet to realise it's ALL about respecting tthe mecs backgrounds? Megan is a happy woolworth cashier living the life now, you need to precise in the bio.
Things getting so crazy I get to mix Lynx and Wolf now, thanks to modders overlooking the scrip, lore wise.
