Problem is easily produced when targeting different city guards, and I am sure it is easily solved also. A fix for this would be awesome for those of us that do like the portraits.

Fixed in master. Will be in next release.

Thank you for fixing this, tested and working but it also gave me a slight idea. When I first noticed this issue I thought it was not an issue at all and and something cool. If you switch between two things with all the same qualities, it would be nice if only the skin updated and the animation did not reset. Not necessary just something that could be cool.

Not possible. Also this problem will persist for ToT & ToToT.
