@YH: Just remind me not to stray too close to your porch... :D

@VC: May I quote Sten in saying I have a pitiable memory..? -.- Thanks for bringing your Asian gals back to my mind, especially the second and fourth pics are lovely! The second actually reminds me of an old school friend from Kobe^^



Some beautiful designs here, people! :) Will comment later, have to go watch Germany - Spain now.....

Zeleen: Many thanks for the Anri praise! It really did feel like us all working together trying to overcome a fiercely powerful Orange Con Boss! :)

I didn't bother trying to give Conan any Cousland resemblance, partially because The way Qunari act (aka Sten) suggests to me that Qunari have a domineering nature, & that suggests the possibility that Qunari DNA may have a similar trait, partially because I haven't even seen the Cousland parent's Faces in a long time & don't remember their looks, & partially because I don't think it's mandatory for kids to look like their parents. It seems like it's possible for kids to look different from their parents at least sometimes. I would think that could especially happen in a cross-breeding situation. Plus, I dunno if I could hope to munch a task of a Qunari/Cousland Looks Perfect Blend...

LadyAly: Many thanks! :)

Schratty: I did that in middle of his initial build, & couldn't cope with it. The Qunari Morph Mouth area wouldn't quit screwing around on me & anytime the Morph had any Lips at all, the Lips would poof out, but simultaneously, it would look like the stupid skin above the upper Lip & below the Lower lip would intentionally & uncontrollably 'jut out' as the Lips poof, so if the Lips get poofed up or sized up, this stupid Mouth behavior would look like it was developing a permanent 'smoochy Mouth'. Qunari's don't do 'Smoochy'. This makes no sense at all to me why it would be doing this. I tried loads of things trying to make the Mouth & Lips stop doing this, & making the Lips narrow & 'Stern' was the only thing I found that worked. & when I say I tried a lot of ways of stopping this 'Smoochy' effect, I mean a LOT! It was so freaking ridiculous! ... Oops, did ya mean only just nudge the 'Mouth Back/Forward' Slider? ... Oops, maybe the Mouth is a tad too far back. I start having trouble thinking when I get flustered by stuff, like the aforementioned Lip Ludicrosity. :blush:

mochen: Many thanks! 'Steep learning curve' feels absolutely right. What the buggers was I thinking trying to make a Dalish Elf before I had even met them? I'm glad i got away with it. & I hope i remember what I learned, that can be a problem for me. I feel like I tend to be a slow learner that has to hand-mess with stuff a lot to get it down, it costs me dearly a lot. :(

Neveri: Ahh, I can understand personal preference. I'll see if I can remember this for future Anatomy Gauges.

I think Annabel has Home Runned! :D

Wyldsong: I might need more practice Humans 1st, but I will attempt another Elf eventually. I will eventually wanna make a Dalish Elf Play Character, i'm currently thinking Female Rogue Archer, & if I get the guts & know how for it, I may even be naughty & tamper with the Dalish Elf Base Stats! (I think the Elf Base Stats make perfect sense for the City Elf, but no sense at all for the Dalish Elf. I think Dalish shoulda got +2 Dex & +2 Cunning instead. That's the kinda thing the Toolset is for! :devil:) To tell ya the truth, I anticipated difficulty in looker Elf making, so that was part of Anri's purpose, a practice Elf. Now I need more work with practice Humans before my next (likely practice) Elf!

I thought Blue Tattoo to Blue Hair would be perfect... I've seen loads of Feedback in earlier parts of this Thread of Tattoo colors sometimes failing BECAUSE they didn't match the Hair... How the buggers are we supposed to tell when & when not the Tattoo Color is supposed to match? Is there any Anatomy Rules on this? :blink:

Just a recommendation on making elves:  Look on the nexus for some elf morphs, find ones you like, and look at those for inspiration.  Of course,  a lot of people have a lot of different ideas on what an elf should look like.  To me, I've always preferred the ethereal beauty type thing for my elves, but if I get around to my Dalish, then I'll probably go more the wild elf (Kagonesti) style from D&D.

As for colors, and matching, not matching...it's all subjective really.  I wish there were well defined rules on this, but opinions are abound...opinions are like a******s, everyone has one (and sometimes they stink).  A lot of it depends on the color combinations, some color combos work well together, some not so much.  Sometimes the anatomy can affect it, and sometimes, a simple eye color change will change the whole dynamic of the character, throwing the whole color off or into balance, and even the hairstyle can change things.

If you do anything additional with her, I would recommend running through different hairstyles and tat color combos, unless you like the current result, and if that's the case, ignore me and run with it.  Personally, for that particular tat, I would probably try and tone down the brightness of the colors somewhat, because it covers a lot of her face.

Alright, I am done babbling.  I need to work on some custom powers and get my specializations up and running.

Ok took the advice and made the bridge wider and nostrels thiner. I also darkened up her skin tone slightly and moved the eyes down a fraction.

@ Tyrax: Haha, there, there my friend. It's all going to be okay. And yes, I was talking about back/forward ;)

@ Relshar: Two things: 1) The improvements you've made are great, however, I would still suggest raising her nose just a smidge (like 0.05 or so). 2) The second screen you posted with her eyes closed looks like she blew a gasket in frustration (the smoke in the distance looks like it's coming from her head :P )

@ Schratty - Thanks again for the comments on Tristan. I'm really glad you like him :)

@ Wyldsong - Thanks for the comment!

@ Relshar - The darker skin tone definitely improves the look. Nice work!



I've been giving serious thought to releasing my character files to the public. I'm just not sure how many people would be interested and if it's worth me doing.

I'm just sort of gauging interest levels. I'd be releasing the .mor files of my PC's and NPC's.

Thanks guys for the feedback.

@ mochen: Haha, sorry to harp on him; his design just really struck a cord with me :P As for releasing your .mors, I would definitely be interested as well. Although, as Noir said, if you decide not to, I'll respect your decision :D

All righty..I just checked out Leliana's Song and beat it.

It's such a great DLC. I highly recommend it.

I've already redesigned some of the designs fro Leliana's Song and should it be releasing it very soon..

Here's my Leliana. It's the blonde one from before but with red hair.

And since we're on the topic of "crabby" personalities. Here's my "crabby Alistair"

Personally, I say go for it.  I've had this discussion once before on these boards, and I am of the mind that the more stuff we have out (IE community creations), the longer the community will strive, thrive and grow.  You do good work, and I promise you, there will be interest.   I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

And here's my version of Sketch.

I think the "fema" texture was used a bit too liberally in the original rendition. The nose seemed very thin to me as well. Also, I wanted Sketch to look more masculine and to look more jaded...he's really more of a grumpy person..at least the voice actor is.

Deciding between the Sketch above or this one here:

@ Petehog:  I actually think that Leliana morph is prettier than the one in your standard Redesigned mod. As for your crabby Alistair, he kind of reminds me a little of Teagan. I guess I'm going to have to buy Leliana's Song...as I've already thrown away money on all the other DLC for Dragon Age.

P.S. You make some of the prettiest female elves.


Dedicated to Y.H...

Old Man Crabapple is not amused by Schratty's antics.

Wyldsong: I like Elves when they're lighthearted, mischievous, or stuff like that, but not generally bad. I hate arrogant, 'better-than-thou' types of Elves, though Male Elves acting like Ballerinas missing their Tutus don't rub me the right way either. I like what BioWare did with Elves in this realm because they did anything with Elves that's not the kinda Elf I hate! I don't know much about D&D Elves. I've only ever got to dabble in D&D stuff, the biggest one of all being a dummy log of Neverwinter Nights. I still consider myself to like the D&D Line of Games anyway.



It never occurred to me to try looking at Nexus Elves... I'll see if i can remember to do that sometime.



I have no idea how i'm gonna get the hang of 'subjective' stuff... Oh crud... *hope in future skill improvement wanes*



While you're working on Specializations kinda stuff, could ya please fix Shapeshifting into something that's NOT broken gimp? *begs* Shapeshifting is completely utterly cool, (I've given it a try on Morrigan!) but BioWare screwed up at implementing it. *begs some more* I considered going Shapeshifter on Tayo when I finally play her, (It's part of her Character that she likes animals, & even goes so far as to like animals more than Humans!) I personally think the only logical playstyle use for Shapeshifter was to gain the ability to switch off of 'Magic Mode' & switch to a 'Melee Mode', so ya could have a Character that can fight & cast well, in exchange for being less specialized toward Magic, & that ya can't have the Magic & the Melee at the same time as a power balance. Additionally, gaining Melee power from Shapeshifter could serve as a defense against enemies that are designed to have an advantage over spellcasters, (2 good examples are Templars, & stuff that is Immune to Staff Attacks) so the Mage can make themself harder to trump. Arcane Warrior is cool, but variety is good too! We should be able to choose if we wanna Melee with Weapons & Armor, or Teeth & Claws! (& Stingers!)



Relshar: She's lookin good! That mighta done it!



Schratty: Ahh, in that case, yes, i'll see about scooting the Mouth forward a bit, if nothing gets in the way design wise.



Petehog: LOL!!! That looks like an evil Alistair brother!

Petehog; More sweet work as always!



Schratty: ROFL!!! He's awesome! Now, he needs a Shotgun! Or if none of those are available, perhaps a Magic Staff!

@ Petehog: Well, I clearly haven't played the DLC yet (it's downloading as I type), but on pure aesthetics, I really like both C and D. Just my 2 cents ;)



@ Noir: I like Christie. She's not as dramatic as some of your previous morphs, but there is great beauty in the subtlety of her design. Christie has a certain seriousness to her as well. Very nice job :)



@ Y.H.: Maaaaaybe *sheepish grin* I can't help it. I'm antagonistic by nature :P Besides, it's all meant in good fun. Just trying to get a rise out of you - that's all.

@ Tyrax.. it feels like Anri is a child of the forumImage IPB

@ Petehog... I like C

@ Schratty.. I love Old Man Crabapple.. can he be my Grandpa?Image IPB

@ Relshar.. she looks better but still a little flat.. did you try some textures?

@ Noir.. Christie looks like she means business... pretty in a dangerous way

soooo seeing as I am a transplant from xbox DA:O I thought you could only have 10 characters.. imagine my surprise when I read here that you have more... OMG I just created a whole bunch of new games... need to get my achievements for the PC.. and that means new characters a-coming.Image IPB
