For the top left, change Art - Interface Icon in the object eidtor. To change the talking head (presumably to an existing one), extract the one you want to change it to and then import it over the portrait file of the existing portrait model. The existing portrait model will generally be at something like Units\Race\Unit name\Unit name_Portrait.mdx

Do you want to edit the skin or that actual model? Have you ever edited a skin/model before?

It should be just like regular skin editing. Just extract the old skin, edit it, and import it. The portrait models always point to the same skin as the main model. Is there some particular problem you're having?
