We love you enough to make up for it <3

 

Also, I'm never going to get anything done ever again because all I want to do is draw Solas fan art!  My next one isn't particularly funny, but it might contain a qunari femQuisitor.  Not totally sure yet, but maybe.

 

I don't blame you! If I could draw, I would be using up SO much time making Solas/general DAI fanart.

 

And yessssss yesssssss, draw that qunari! That would be so awesome!  :wub:

The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, if you really wanted to you could always make dat fanart the first step. We would all love to see it <3

I have a delivery for one salzgurken!

Ha! Awesome drawing, that's so funny but cute. ^_^

 

I actually finished drawing something!  Not much face detail for Solas, but my attention was, uh, elsewhere :wub:

 

Edit: Also, I don't do backgrounds.  The end.

 

PickingHerbs-ShaylynBlackburn-1.jpg

That is exactly what my Inquisitor is going to be doing...99.9% of the time! Lovely drawing. :)

 

 

I really hope this isn't too big.  I have stayed up all night doing this.  Serves me right for trying to get back into art after so long.  And I realized after I posted it that it isn't even finished... bad Brass.  No cookie. :(

It's not as good as some of the rest people have posted, so you'll have to forgive me for that.  My anatomy skills are lacking, for sure.

 

Also I don't know why he's sad, but I'm sure he won't object to a hug or two.

 

Are you kidding your drawing is Amazing! Bag full of cookies for you... ^_^

Well, i think it's lovely, so thank you :)

 

 

Btw is that by an elven ruin? maybe he found something that didn't go over well with him ;) :)

 

I'm not sure what kind of ruin it is... I actually don't much like the door handles I put on there.  Would have liked to make the door look engraved or something, for interest.

 

But thanks!

 

Brass, I love how alien his face looks in yours! Really highlights that he's not in fact human.

 

Ohhhhh dear, Solas bending over... Oooookay, between running around picking herbs with Solas and doing shirtless gardening with Cullen, my inquisitor isn't going to be getting much done.  :wacko:

 

I was trying to base his face off the screenshot... That enhance zoom pic someone posted helped a lot.  So I think that's more a thing with the original artist and the modeler than it is with me.  I do appreciate the praise, mind you.

 

Still not sure he looks quite right, think maybe I got his chin too wide.  He kind of has heavy lids under his eyes, and a slight upcurve at the corner, and a slightly curved/hooked nose... Need better screenshots for references if I ever do this again... particularly for clothing/body.

 

I love it!  You are really good at eyes, I was immediately drawn to them.  Beautiful colors too ^_^  Thanks for sharing your art!

 

Thank you.  As for the eyes... the original is actually 300 dpi, 10 inches wide.  Could make a poster of it if I really wanted to.  Because it was that big I could zoom way in to make the eyes look better.  Eyes are hard... I hardly ever get them to look even.

 

The colors... I mostly stuck with a similar color palette.  Red-brown to golden-green, with some bluey-green in the background to cool it off and keep the eyes up front.  While I ended up liking the colors, one thing I don't like is that tree... it fades out too much.

 

I always have to remind myself "I'm my own worst critic" too :)

 

Your skills are certainly better than mine (except maybe mouth drawing :P).  I always struggled at art growing up and was jealous of those that seemed to have a natural for it!  Of course I was the guy that saw the world in math and would correct the mistakes my teachers made, so "grass is greener" in some ways :)

 

I was trying to get your angry scowl on there but he just looks sad.  :(

 

Thanks for the praise... I put hours of effort into this.  Mostly because I need major practice on backgrounds and anatomy... which I didn't do much of because you can't see that much of him for all the bulky clothing and stufff.

 

And again, thanks everybody for the praise.  I've been feeling pretty down lately about stuff in real life.  You guys are great and positive and it makes me feel a little better.

 

And on to another topic entirely:

 

I had a really weird thought.  What if Solas isn't from the Circle OR the Dales OR Tevinter/Nevarra?  What if we come to find out he's ancient and has been wakened out of uthenara?  Yeah, I know, horribly unlikely, but with the Veil Tears, who knows what's possible?  And any elf who's basically been living in the Fade for so long has a good chance of being an expert of the Fade.  It's not a theory I believe to be correct, but it would be interesting if it were.  Sort of like Javik, except he'd have known more of what was going on.  But, if he were such an ancient being, I can guarantee you that would bump him right out of the romance option lineup.

This reminds me of when people were joking that Solas is actually Shartan! It would be an interesting concept, though, to have an ancient Fade elf around. On the subject of Solas being a special Fade elf, I'm once again wondering at the possibilities of him being somniari. It wasn't completely unconfirmed, after all!

 

On another note, what sort of nickname do you think Varric is going to give our favorite elf?

I'm sure it would probably be something like Baldy, if Solas's final design still has no hair. Varric isn't really all that creative with his nicknames, bless him!

I have been eagerly awaiting for an appropriate moment to drop this gem:

 

somewhere in the Fade…

SOLAS: I have been wondering…
VARRIC: Mm?
SOLAS: What’s it like to be covered in all that hair?  Must be very warm.
VARRIC: Toasty as a bearskin rug beside a crackling tavern hearth.
SOLAS: It sounds dreadful.
VARRIC: Funny. You know, I’ve never once found myself pondering what it’d be like to be bald as a nug’s ass.  

(a tremendous ZAP! skitters across the party. Varric is now hairless, while Solas displays a luxurious head of hair and a chest full of curls.)

VARRIC:  *running a hand over his exposed scalp, looking worriedly down at his now-smooth chest* It’s not half bad. A little chilly, but…
SOLAS: Andraste’s blighted eyeballs! *trying desperately not to scratch himself raw through the crotch of his pants*

VARRIC: *LAUGHING

Why do you think it'd make him not a romance option?

 

If he were ancient like that, he'd be so old and so disconnected from the present that he would most likely see everyone as children.  Even the oldest living elves would be children to him.  It would be hard for someone who had lived that long and seen that much to look at people who were so much younger in a romantic light.  (And this is also one of the major creep factors of Twilight, for that matter, as if it needed any more creep factors (I am not a fan)--because Edward openly sees people of Bella's age as children and so...)

 

Not saying it wouldn't be possible for him to feel romantically inclined anyhow.  I suspect we'll end up finding out he's just some really weird apostate, though.  And even then there is no guarantee he'll be a romance option (even if they did give him a great body and a cute face.  They do love fan tears.).

Personally the "I'm over thousands of years old, teach me your modern ways of love" sounds hot to me. :) Lol. (I Hate twilight btw, but there are some good steamy vampire/god/sup/ novels/manga out there).
I loved the crazy "he is Shartan" theory. Even though Shartan wasn't a Mage. But with the veil tears, the theories are endless.
Either way, Dat ass is a gift from the dread wolf. Rawr. <3

Also, the mabari is adorable. <3  And Solas is hot, but that was obvious >_>

Try it! Honestly, you're your own worst critic (because I really don't think I'm that great, but I post it anyways since you guys seem amused by what I make :ph34r: ). Besides, I think it's been established that we take any and all  fanart no matter what :P

 That is such a cool idea :blink: We've speculated about a lot of different origins, it'd be fun to have our minds blown like that.  Kerpow!

I am so disappointed to be out of likes right now.  I would romance the hell out of an ancient Fade expert elf :o  "Good morning, how was your uthenara?  I bet sleeping alone for centuries gets pretty lonely..."

You did not like Javik? What? 

 

Opinions that differ from mine, I'm not sure I can take much more of this. 

 

Damn you Solas, making me all ambivalent.

Please, not another Javik-type character.

 

I somehow doubt he'd be anything like Javik, even if he were awakened from uthenara.  For one thing, Bioware doesn't re-use personalities that close together, if at all.  For another, Javik was basically dead (that's pretty much what cryostasis is, you're frozen and you're not conscious of anything), whereas an elf in uthenara may be in a sort of deathlike sleep, but they are fully conscious in the Fade.  They can watch over the world, they can respond to people's requests for aid, etc.  Javik wasn't conscious.  Anything after being put into cryogenic sleep, he has forgotten.  That would make a big difference between the two in experience alone, and nevermind personality--since I'm reasonably sure that Solas would not have been put into uthenara due to dire need.

 

It would make sense for a surviving ancient elf to take note of the Veil Tear and awaken to help deal with the fallout.

 

But that said, the theory is highly unlikely, for a variety of reasons.

 

TME spoiler:

So yeah, it's just a wild theory and I don't think it is actually true.  Just something I tossed out there that I thought would make for an interesting character.
