Dunno if I can claim to be able to art, but Challenge Accepted.
Sorry, Dragon. Solas ain't got no time for your shenanigans.
Spoiler
YES!
I love how the dragon's face is all "Seriously, I'm gonna just go find somebody else to barbecue if he can't even be bothered to look."
I wonder when they'll announce his voice actor. I've been loving the VA videos, but I don't expect we'll get one for every companion.
Also, nice fireball art. 
Just kidding
@ Science to do:
me = bun
(Alsowow wow wow if these gifs end up being too large)
@ AO:
And YASSSSS. Solas looks like he's too busy to fight a dragon. He's like... 'bugger off' or something.

And, on that note, I think it was time some artwork was brought out to lighten the mood. Though I would strongly encourage us not to put down other characters when discussing our reasons why or why or why not they could/should be love interests. I realize we can get caught up in the negativity moment (I know I certainly was last night), but we're a happy NICE village. We've got a rep to keep up as the friendly thread that is inviting to outsiders and causal conversationists. Not the kind that puts down other characters. (We've also been losing followers in our thread if that says anything. Soooo... yeah)
ALSO
RUDE OF ME
THANK YOU ALL!

I forgot that you could follow threads at all 
But yes, all the characters are great even if someone takes Solas's place as a love interest. Though I haven't seen too much putting down of other characters in here. Maybe I just didn't notice?
It's easy to get caught up in the romance negativity that has swept through the forums (and good gosh let that end soon with the reveal of LIs) and I've definitely fallen victim. I'm going to try to be less negative, though, and focus on how much I already like Solas's character! The awesome fanart helps. Like, a lot.
So like, do more of it and stuff. For the good of the universe.
Yeah, basically, this has been me trying to be productive this week:
So I ended up using prompts I lifted from here for speed drawings so I at least got a little practice in and try to prevent artist block. HOPEFULLY tomorrow I actually work on things I should be working on, haha.
But I do have another Solas idea so I might have to do that soon...
Wanted to art up that skit I wrote way-back-when with the Inquisitor sneaking to snuggle Solas's fur thingie. Anatomy still kicking my butt. No art forthcoming tonight.
I feel yah! I've been trying to finish that 'AHHH Schmooples' banter from LONG LONG AGO and I've kinda got the last 'panel' done, but not quite. You could always surprise us another day~!
I've never been particularly adept with more realistic shading, like you've got going on here. His eyes are especially great!
(spoilered for neatness)
It's never too late to staaarrrttt! /nudge nudge
/shakes really happily
AAAAAHHHHH THANK YOU!!!!
Eyes are secretly kinda difficult for me.
Especially since it was only about 4-ish years ago that I shifted styles from something more anime-esque.
(sometimes the anime-esque eyes will creep up on me in my pictures)

This is a bit of a misconception. There is at least one character who is not a companion or an advisor whom you can flirt with. When Cameron said that there were eight romances, he was referring to eight romances within the companions and advisors.
So, rejoice or not as you see fit.
Holy crap, I just woke up to this, best thing ever
I've decided to be less negative about Solas being a LI anyway
Even if he doesn't turn out to be one, I still had a lot of fun speculating with you guys 
And Solas will still be awesome
I'll hope until the end
& now let's talk about something else
Totally agree with Carpool and Rynj.
IF Solas isn't a romance option, we should be sure to not rain on anyone else's parade that their dude got chosen over ours. I'm not a huge fan of Blackwall for a LI choice, but I will be VERY happy for the people who wanted him as a LI if it ends up happening, even if our Solas isn't an option. Same with Varric. Just have to be sure to be respectful and all 
I'd hate to see the thread delve into being super negative like that, but I really don't think that'll happen with how friendly and lovable everyone here is Just something to think about and keep in mind I suppose.
@CARPOOL:
D'awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! Lil bunny!
And yeah, the air in here felt negative for a while. But we must be nice and happy and sunshine-y! No matter who the LIs are, someone will be happy, someone will be disappointed. Let's be happy for whoever gets the LI they want.
Who thinks I should post a script I did with my friend the other day that is completely silly and not serious in any way, shape, or form? Hm? Hmmmm? Anyone? It involves shoes.
I wonder when they'll announce his voice actor. I've been loving the VA videos, but I don't expect we'll get one for every companion.

I'm currently agree with whoever suggested Matt Ryan. It seems voice actors/ actresses for these games are either Bioware voice regulars, cartoon show voices, have been in other video games, or aren't that big yet. (At least, this is my impression) But I'm not familiar with a lot of VAs who can do a welsh accent.

out of likes for the day!
foo!
I honestly like... I guess if he's not, and there isn't a terribly good reason why he isn't interested, I may just live in 'blatant ignorance is bliss' land and draw things anyway.
Yeah, basically, this has been me trying to be productive this week:
/snip interesting gif

YOOO I totally suggest it! (it was especially helpful before we got to know more about his personality) Peeps in here make such good prompts/ banter. If I could draw faster (or just said 'eff it' and let my quality slip) I would have illustrated a good majority of them. I got a whole folder full of potential banter interactions I still want to draw out.
Oh, hey, maybe that's why his food is Scotch Bonnet candies!
I keep having these mental images of Solas giving Sera a terribly hard time without her even realizing. Poor Sera. She's adorable.
I need to tell you that this gif is now one of my favorite things. ACCEPTABLE. Awesome art too, btw.
Generally speaking, I think a lot of the threads are just dealing with some fatigue right now. Tough to stay cranked to eleven all the time, especially when October is still a ways away and the info comes in odd little bursts that, by necessity, still don't tell us much. Plus, we seem to have picked a shy character! I'd love to have a few juicy tidbits thrown this way (his VA, maybe? A small clip of him in-game?), but for whatever reason, Solas seems to be fairly far down on the list of companions to talk about/show/acknowledge in any way that doesn't amount to "Solas is the Fade guy. He's interested in the Fade. Also, he thinks a lot about the Fade."
*sigh* Poor Solas. No wonder he has dem thighs and dat a$$. While the other companions are being shown off, he's working out!

That was me ^u^
When I was looking up possible actors, I didn't see many that weren't crazy old that did video games. I also didn't see any older actors who were involved with games either! So my best guess is Matt Ryan (he may be busy, however). Then again, I'm not an expert when it comes to Welsh actors xD
Bioware could just throw us through a loop and have an actor faking a Welsh accent. But that would make me sad. u.u

I knooow. I wish they would throw a few little tidbits about Solas our way. Granted, it seems like Sera and Iron Bull are the "fun" characters this time around so I'm not surprised that they get so many jokes and mentions.

Yeah, I have to admit this has kind of been worrying for me, but I'm just telling myself that they just don't want to spoil some of his character arc...maybe(?) so they aren't giving us a lot of details on him. It sounds like he's a pretty deep character, and like Rynj said he's not super out there and "fun" like some of the others are, so he probably doesn't appeal to the masses right off the bat. Not a good marketing character most likely.
But yeah, I really wish we could see him in a trailer, especially in combat (Vivi, I love you darling, but you've had a LOT of spotlight ) or at least know his VA. At least we know that his VA is (maybe) Welsh! lol

I know after 3 years of waiting, 3 months shouldn't be that bad BUT LORD THE CLOSER WE GET TO OCTOBER THE MORE FAR AWAY IT FEELS
I looked up a video with Matt Ryan. Seven seconds in, I paused it and said, "Yep, I approve, mmhmm."
Have some script! Shoe-related, as promised.

Inquisitor: Solas.
Solas: I'm not wearing any shoes you give me.
Inquisitor: But they're Orlesian!

Dorian: Inquisitor! Stop trying to dress him in common drab!

Gareth David-Lloyd is Welsh, he starred in the same show as Eve Myles (Merrill), and when somebody was inquiring if she would be returning for DA3 a couple years back (IIRC she wasn't, at the time), it came up that Gareth was actually doing voice-over work for it.I'm currently agree with whoever suggested Matt Ryan. It seems voice actors/ actresses for these games are either Bioware voice regulars, cartoon show voices, have been in other video games, or aren't that big yet.

I getcha on that. I can also say that a lot of the threads/ bsn members seem fatigued. (The more I look around at other forum topics, which is kinda dangerous) We've doing a lot of figure-8's concerning information and topics of speculation.

Ahhhh! Cool beans. No no I agree. I only found like... maybe this one other dude that was in the Amazing Spiderman. But I don't know... ... I just don't know. For all we know someone could surprise us kinda like Zevran's voice actor. I think the first time I looked him up I was like 'no? really? no, that can't be him.'

Ohhhhhh! This works too! Oh, you're all so good at your research, I like his voice too! It certainly seems like he'd be another prospective voice option.
YES GOOD RESEARCH YES GOOD!
