I can confirm the mod mentioned below now allows to play with these portraits.
Namelist still needs polish, some things also ceased working there.

@m_utopis & everyone interested.

I've gotten myself into a bit of modding since last year.
I'm currently trying to fix this mod with what I've learnt so far.

Here:

If the author @cmdr. caesar comes back and asks me to remove it, I'll follow their wishes.
In the meantime, ppl can still enjoy this mod in the repaired form (follow link above).

wish someone would fix it.

Regarding the changes in May's update that affected plenty of portrait mods. I found this advice elsewhere. I'm posting it here in case it helps:

In mod/common create 2 new folders portrait_sets and portrait_categories, each should have a .txt file speciesname_foldername, this is in addition to the species_classes folder

species_classes - only required when making new modded categories (i.e. not human, mamalian, etc.)
delete everything in this file except:
classname = {
archetype = ""
possible = ""
graphical_culture = ""
move_pop_sound_effect = ""

speciesname_portrait_set - Syntax
speciesname = {
Species_class = |speciesclass| (vanilla or modded)
portraits = {
"|portraitgroup|" (quotes required, found in mod/gfx/portraits/portraits .txt file under portrait_groups
}
}

speciesname_portrait_categories - Syntax
speciesname| = {
name = |speciesclass|
sets = {
|portraitgroup| (no quotes)
}
}

I concur, the portrait list can't be selected at Empire Creation since the last DLC+Patch.
I have an Amazon empire that I cannot use because the game can't find the portraits

Hoping for an update, as it can’t be sued in the current patch.

Any plans for a second beautiful species?

Currently using this species for my empire. Looks really nice.

I'm getting Kim Kardashian vibes

Make version with the males.

I'd like to keep using this but it's overwriting another of my species. Could you explain how I can make your mod work as it's own separate species on the list?

partially yes.

Are these made with AI?

sigh....
*presses enslave button.

lord have mercy

yeah working on it. next update for the mod will be tomorrow.

we need some female name only name lists, can you make a few?

Thanks sir!

dare I say it. MAMMARIES! Two of them... On a humanoid. This mod has potential!
