Gurkha Dress Uniform Portraits
Nine photos of you in one setting
How your model is created from your photos
Every pack on Narcis, made with your face
Nine photographs of you in one setting: one pack of the Narcis catalogue.
Nine photographs of you, styled in Gurkha dress order — the dark green No.1 uniform, slouch hat, and the curved khukuri at the belt. The nine vary in crop, expression and light, so there are real choices, not nine identical files.

The Gurkha Dress Uniform register
This pack draws on two centuries of a name that means what it says, in dress order — the slouch hat with its upturned brim and regimental badge, the dark green No.1 dress, the curved khukuri sheathed at the belt, white gloves. It's a parade square in Kathmandu or Folkestone, the hills always behind.
Technically that means clear light on a square with a stone gate and green hills behind, a clean key light with the khukuri's brass hilt in frame for the studio card, and a calm half-smile on a hillside terrace overlooking the valley. The output is photoreal — a real gurkha portrait of you, not an illustration.
How to photograph yourself for a Gurkha portrait
Better source photos make better portraits.
- Even, soft lightStand near a window with indirect daylight. Avoid overhead bulbs and flash.
- Front or three-quarter angleEye level, facing forward or turned slightly. No selfie-stick uplook.
- Face fully clearHair off the forehead, no sunglasses — a clear face gives the model the most to match under the slouch hat brim.
- Quiet, formidable calmThis register reads as still and composed rather than a grin — a level gaze suits the parade square and the studio card both.
- Plain background is fineThe parade square, the studio backdrop, and the hillside terrace replace whatever's behind you — a plain wall just helps the model focus on your face.
Frequently asked questions
- Will it actually look like a real gurkha portrait?
- Yes. The output is photoreal — a real-looking photograph of you in the dark green dress uniform with the khukuri, not an illustration or a costume filter.
- Which scenes does the pack cover?
- Three: a parade square with a stone gate and green hills behind, a formal studio portrait with the khukuri in frame, and a hillside terrace overlooking the valley. Nine portraits, three per scene.
- Do I need to already own the slouch hat and khukuri?
- No. The pack supplies the dress uniform and the ceremonial dress; nothing to rent or borrow.
- How is this different from the Sikh Regiment pack?
- Gurkha is quiet and formidable — the slouch hat and khukuri, a hillside register. Sikh Regiment is radiant and ceremonial — the fanned turban, Rajpath's parade avenue. Two decorated traditions, two very different tones.
- Is this only for Gurkha veterans?
- No — it's a popular gift and profile-photo pack for anyone drawn to the regiment's register, wherever they're from.
- Can women use this pack?
- The uniform renders as a male sitter by default, matching the Gurkha's own portrait tradition.
- Can I use it commercially?
- It's for personal use — profile pictures, prints, gifts — not licensed stock photography for resale or ad campaigns.
- Will the photos look like me?
- Every photo looks like you, well photographed. If one is nearly right, say what to change, in your own words.
- Do I have to write a prompt?
- No. There is nothing to write: you pick a pack, and it is ready in seconds.
- How many photos of myself do I add?
- Between six and twenty, from different days and in different light, with your face clear. We check each one when you add it.
- What happens to the photos I add?
- They are used only to create your model, on our own servers in the European Union. They are not shared and not sold.

About narcis
Most AI photo tools put every pose, job, era, and style in one giant catalog. The photos all look like every other AI photo on the internet — a glaze over a stock face. Narcis goes the other way. One job: photos of you that look like photographs. You add at least 6 photos of yourself, and we create your AI model from them. Your photos are ready in a few hours, and we email you when they are. Then this pack and every other pack on Narcis can be made with your face. Each pack is curated against real references — paintings, photographers, places — and tested on real faces before it goes live. Built and run by one small team, on our own servers.
All images are AI-generated. By using this service, you confirm you are 18+, that any face photo you upload is your own or used with explicit consent. Full Terms
