How do i make Northmen use the Norse portraits?

Re-edit

I solved my initial problem of wanting norse portraits for the northmen, but i ran into a new problem. I tried assigning some other portraits to some other cultures i felt were appropriate, and NONE of them worked... except the ones i changed to Norse. This is very confusing, can anyone shed some light on what my problem might be? How can i utilize my other portraits?

by the way, what i did was changed the cultures.txt, is there more to it? i feel like the norse thing proves there shouldnt be

If all you are doing is a simple swap out for a dlc portrait set, then your problem is one of these.

Have you written/spelt the portrait set correctly?
Have you activated the appropriate dlc while playing?
Is the relevant portrait set defined in graphicalculturetypes.txt?

If, however you are trying to add a custom portrait set of your own creation or from another mod. You will need to merge all the relevant graphics files into the the AGOT mod folder and then create entries for all of them in the interface files.

I just wanted to say that northmen in the ASOIAF lore look nothing like norse.

Aren't northmen First men generally dark of hair?
