Marethari I hate because of her character. She looks great though

Merrill's gorgeous Image IPB

Tallis is gorgeous Image IPB

Varania wasn't horrible looking. I just think her hair color and her make-up don't quite mesh well. But she'd definitely be great looking if she changed that.


its wierd that we like the same elves:wub: and obvious reason Marethari is old so....yeah. and i do believe there is at least one good looking female let alone elf in the Blooming Rose. i wish we got to see more of Athenril:crying:

Seriously, the people trying to compare her to Gollum make me think of pissy little ten year olds.

I'm hoping that Bioware gives us a Year 1 DLC with her as a companion LI during that time and makes Athenril a party member/love interest in DA3.

She was awesome. We need a good female city elf companion.

But other similarities between elvish faces would seem to me to be more because of them being based on a limited number of pregens and then minimally tweaked than a deliberate policy.

I think the things like the overall, narrower face shape and such are also deliberate decision as they're made part of the head base and the target morphs -- if the intention was for the elves to have more variation in this regard (and others) then it'd be as easy as making the 'wide face' actually noticeably wider etc. That they didn't do it when they're perfectly able to, is something i'd chalk up to a conscious decision to keep species features 'distinct' from one another, in response to earlier complaints. And that alternative Tallis morph suggests that they considered handling her character the same way, though ultimately made an exception for her.

To me, something feels slightly off with the design - I think it's the skin and eyes. It's a texture issue I think, she just seems ... flatter ... than the others. I like her face shape though.

Her eyes definitely stood out to me as well and I think it is because they aren't particularly shiny. Everyone else had shimmery looking eyes, but hers looked filmy or dull in comparison. Could be a texture issue?
I still thought she was pretty though.

That's just because you can't let people have a different opinion without wanting them to seem lesser to yourself, it makes it easier to think you are right. Image IPB

I don't think Merrill and Fenris have especially thin heads

I really doubt that alternative Tallis morph was ever anything more than a simple placeholder. They're not going to make their lead character for a DLC be the elf in underwear at the brothel with a few basic tweaks

edit:  One other thing - blue eyes aren't very elvish.  Jethann has them, but I don't think anyone else does.  Green eyes like Tallis' are much more normal.

There was a comment from Mr.Gaider in the other thread that they made few different versions of Tallis, with varying degrees of "elfness". It could be one of them, i think. As it seems to have quite a bit of effort put in it to make it similar to Felicia Day, which just wouldn't be needed for a simple placeholder.

According to the lorelol (a mention in one of the books) elves are supposed to have eyes with 'strange, vivid colours' or something to that effect. Green eyes being frequent appears to be mostly DA2 thing, there's much more variety in this regard in DAO.

"Quite a bit" not a lot Image IPB  But yes, it does take a while to capture some decent similarity, while a placeholder could be simply a default head.

Exactly and there is no effort in that placeholder, no similarities except the haircolor.

I think we'll simply have to disagree about this one.
