@LadyAly Thanks, it is nice to be back around. I am also glad you noticed the grain texture of the screenshot as well. I edited the shot to make it look that way in attempt to make it appear more stylized. It is an idea I had to dress up the appearance of my designs, I have been trying it out on a few characters here and there to see what I can come up with.


I find your texture/skin tone combination for Voran to be rather interesting, it gives off a fresh faced apprearance yet aged to fit the lore look of dwarfs. That particular facial hair choice makes him look regal to me like a someone from a noble caste too.


@Mulch00 I can appreciate the work  you did with textures on Sandy very much. The cool toned skin complexion accompanies blonde hair well and the coloring of the lips and around the eyes blends in with her skin tone as well instead of sticking out or drawing too much attention. With regard to lore, dwarfs have overwhelmingly bulbous noses so Leif could stand to have the the tip of his nose broadened more to stop the bridge of his nose from making it look thin and human-like overall.

@RagingCyclone I like that you attempted to produce a more alternative look for Greagoir with the bronze skin tone and eye texture. The combed backed hair seems fitting for his personality as well considering that he is a bit uptight and something of a A type personality.

@Starlight I am not entirely sure if this is a new concept for you since I have not been around that much but I am sensing a strong asian appearance in a few of your dwarf characters there. I will say that is the first time I have seen Asian features incorporated in dwarfs and it looks genuine and original. It may be something of a subtle part of your characters here but it stands out a lot to me.

@AvatarHunter.
Thanks for the advice.
I tried it out on Leif, but couldn't get used to his new nose and because of that couldn't really get anything to work on him, so I decided to make another dwarf with a bigger nose and broader tip.
Might sound stupid but that's how I learn, starting over till I get it right and till I'm used to how it should look.
When I have an idea how those dwarfen noses work I'll rework the other dwarfs.
Am I going in the right direction or is the nose still too small/the tip no narrow and the bridge too broad?

mulch00: For the breadless dwarf, there are some methods you can try. As the rigid shape of dwarf models, sometimes I will use the square chin to change the shape of the jaw. Sometimes I will apply a bit of Oghern's shape to make the face look round. And the dwarf chin, model have too much which makes the dwarf look aged. I have to apply the stubble to cover up the shadows to soften the chin and this can held to make him look younger. If I want to create some "bear" type characters, I will apply chubby shape (the shape chubby in tab 3 instead of fat shape in tab 15) as well.

@mulch00 Yes, that is exactly the look I was suggesting. Since dwarfs typically have round faces they can handle those large and broad features and still look proportional overall. Your new dwarf turned out great.

@AvatarHunter:
Thank you for your help and advice. I never thought that so big noses could really work, or that I could make them work on my dwarfs, but you taught me how to do it. Thank you. I always appreciate your feedback.

@Starlight:
Ok I tried it, but I'm not sure if I got it right. It's really hard to find a balance between too chubby and too skinny, and I'm having trouble especially witht he cheeks and cheekbones. Also the neck and/or jaw is really tricky.

Snorri, deliberatly more human-like, but otherwise I tried to follow Starlight's advice.

Glorious. Now I see the true reason why Trian is so jealous and Bhelen wants him out of the way so badly - all of the noblewomen (and noble hunters) in Orzammar must be throwing themselves at him. :lol:

 @mulch Your dwarfs having improved much - I like especially Ragnar and Leonin. Leonin has  a bit to *white and smooth* skin  - but that is personal taste.
Boris is one of a handsome chap - I  have serious problems to make handsome male *lol*
Nadine is gorgeous I agree with greengoron89 in this case 

@RagingCyclone your interpretation of Greagoir is interesting - I like it. I would probably use another eye style for him, this gives him somewhat of a grief look.

@Petehog its good to see you are still around - and this dwarf looks nicely angry ;)

@greengoron89:
Thanks. Your original is so much better. Real noble looking and a classic dwarf. I hope to see more awsome designs from you.

@Petehog:
Wow, great dwarf. Your "action shot" of him look so cool.

@LadyAly:
Thanks you.
Tamyris looks like a real pirate queen. In my opinion, that hairstyle is pretty difficult to use on morphs (at least it is for me) but you've made it work really well. Great design.

As for Boris, it's really just favourable light and pose. I realised to late that his nose looks somehow too long, or at least for my taste. (Auch wenn man das Sprichwort mit der Nase usw. bedenkt).
Also most of my male designs look quite similar.

That is high praise indeed, thank you. =]

If you wait a bit, I'll edit this post with some pics of a character I've been working on for the past few days - a female Dalish Elf this time.

EDIT: Hmm... take a look at these.

Front

Right side

Left side

Not sure what to think about this character. I can't seem to find a proper tattoo (the one there is decent at least) or tattoo color for her - most of the other tattoos are a bit too garish-looking for my taste, and none of the colors available sit well with me either.

I might not keep this one after all.

@greengorog89:
you dalish elven girl look really good. I would keep her if I were you. The tattoo can be tricky at times, especially it's such a beautiful face and such expressive eyes.
Maybe a tattoo like the one Petehog used on his very pretty young elfie, would work.
Or some tattoos tattoos from these mods:
Wyld Tats by Wyldsong and Roma Victa:   http://dragonagenexu...ile.php?id=1732
LS Tattoos by Juliana Giraud   http://dragonagenexu...ile.php?id=1964
PAngel Tattoos by prosthetic_angel:   http://dragonagenexu...file.php?id=862
cemeterychilds custom tattoos by cemeteryschild:   http://dragonagenexu...file.php?id=822
or maybe gizmodian faceworks by Gizmodian and Luchaire:   http://dragonagenexu...file.php?id=605

Like you said a smaller tattoo or one with thinner lines would be better for her.

As for tattoo colours, there is a great mod that add several cool new colours:
More CC tattoo colors by Roma Victa:   http://dragonagenexu...ile.php?id=2062

Maybe no tattoo at all, if you can't find anything fitting, but as I said I'd keep her if I were you. She looks great.

I could use the mods for the CC, but I can only actually play the game on Xbox 360. I just use the CC to make the characters, then record the slider settings so I can make the character in the actual game - but thanks for the suggestion all the same.

At any rate, I think I'm going to have to give up on the tattoos after all. I've tweaked and tweaked and tweaked them, but to no avail. No combination of tattoos or coloration works well - they all look so garish and detract from her face (especially her complexion, which appears very silky and smooth otherwise).

In that case, I'll just abandon the Dalish origin and make her a mage - I need to play a mage anyway to unlock the rest of the game's achievements.

Mulch--I really like Tarek, that skin tone works really well with him. For Saul I would suggest either eliminate the mutton chops or add some stubble to his head Like Jason Statham. As a bald man myself in RL I know if I bother to shave my head the beard gets shaved in the same time.

@RagingCyclone:
Thanks.
About Saul, I don't know, I actuelly like the idea (well, I like the look) of a shaved head and stubble.
Bruce looks really amazing.He looks intelligent and like he's choosing words and actions very carefully. I think he'd make a good diplomat and a wise and just ruler. I also like the a bit sad look on his face.

@Klidi:
I really like your elfs, the all arevery handsome and young with the smooth, perfect elven complexion, but without becoming beautiful shells without any hint of character.
Deygan is a really good example a roguish, cunning elven youth. Impressive design.

@Starlight:
Wow, so many handsome mlae designs. I think I like Gimrick and Tavor best, because they look like some super nice guys.

not much time to post anything ... but

@mochen Stevie is very androgyne, a very impressive design. The only thing I would maybe change is the jaw - a tad wider maybe :happy: Personal taste I think.
Your dolls are simple adorable :wub:

@mulch Bela should not pick up fist fights ;P Your dwarf is awesome - I think he is a icecold merchant and spy  ;)
Thanks for the comment on Tamyris :)

@Starlight
- Your bunch of Designs is very nice - as always. I like at best Tavor - he looks so trustworthy :happy:

@Klidi  WOW I really love Cammen - absolutely wonderful elf male design  <3

This one is really amazing. I can see a whole emotional tapestry in her face. Sadness, but also much kindness and strength. Also did you make that hairstyle yourself? I've never seen it before.

@mulch - thanks! I'm trying to make all elves in the game 'beautiful' as they are supposed to be. By my standards it means they should have perfect skin and look younger and better than humans, but I also with some character.

The only one that is intended to look not pretty but like a little freak is my Airam Surana, who is also the Warden from my story. The only person who likes him is Zevran. :D

I like your Qunari - especially his nose and lips. I had a lot of trouble with that when I was making my Sten.
And Gideon is very sexy!

@LadyAly - Cammen was the first one I changed, I couldn't stand his original look. But after his quest he disappears! - and so I used him as my Mahariel as well. ^^

@mochen - wow, I love your dolls. And where did you get their hair? It looks great.

Here is my Tabris family:

And in the end the elf that caused my obsession with DA:

I designed Zev specifically for my Airam Surana, who is only 18 - original Zev looks like he's in his 40s and I always had a feeling I'm a sick pedo. So I changed him to be younger, bit more attractive and also to look more like cocky and arrogant assassin.
