Honestly, I just go with what looks good to me and roll with it.  I also made a male Qunari that looks pretty good and I managed to recreate my first Hawke (m!Hawke mage) with no issues.

 

Apparently I suck at making female humans with DA:I's CC because I tried to recreate my first f!Hawke (rogue) and completely screwed up the cheeks, chin, and jaw.  I don't plan on making a f!Trevelyan any time soon, so I guess I'll have to practice with my f!Hawkes to get to where I can make them look at least the way they did in DA2.

 

I make sure to check the frontal and side views on my PCs faces as I adjust everything, which helps me decide whether or not I need to adjust anything further.  The only time I didn't do that was on my first playthrough of ME2, and my Shep looked..... odd.  Always made a point to check my PC's face from different angles in the CC after that.

 

tbh, I only spent a half hour at most in DA:I's CC and I kind of felt like I was rushing it a bit at the time.  It does take some time to adjust to the new stuff in the CC, but I'm quick to adjusting to new stuff, so it wasn't much of an issue for me.

 

I can't really provide much advice because I don't really know why it's so easy for me to use the CC in the first place.  Sorry I'm not much help.

 

One of my friends asked me if I used mods to make my f!Dalish Inquisitor, though.  I have to admit, I felt pretty good to hear that my Inquisitor looked like she was made using mods, considering how the modded characters I've seen look pretty damn good.   ^_^

Eh, well, I managed to make a character that I think looks pretty good, so I'm happy for now.

 

I actually really like this Elven Inquisitor. Unfortunately, my computer doesn't let me take screenshots. ='(

 

Name: Revera.

Skin: Palest pale.

Hair: Whitest white.

Hair style: the really short one with the messy bangs in front.

Eye color and shape: Pale blue-green, almond-shaped eyes.

Head style: Default Female Elven Head #3 with a slighter jaw and chin, larger eyes, and messier hair.

Voice: British. (I guess all elves do in this game.)

Class: Mage.

Specialization: None yet

 

To justify the accent and rather smooth transition into human society, I headcanoned that Revera was born and lived in an alienage until her parents discovered she had magic, then they all fled to the Dalish. Much like Lanaya, she was a city elven child who was raised by the Dalish and eventually became a Keeper's First through hard work. Until the day her Keeper sent her to spy on the conclave, partly because of her human background and the belief that she would understand and possibly fit in among them better if need be. (Oh, how true that turned out to be in the long run. >< )

I did indeed include yours in my question ( :) ), but I didn't really mean the mental model to try to base your character on (I got plenty of real life examples too, don't you worry ;) ), I meant more like the actual fiddling of the sliders and toggles within the game to make the proportions of the eyes, nose, mouth, jaw, chin, overall face, etc look good. No matter how hard I try, something is always off. The eyes look terrible, the cheeks look terrible, the chin looks terrible; some individual aspects of the face look good but they look bad all together, I can't get the proportions right, etc.

 

Then I see other people's characters and, even without a mod, they manage to produce model perfect PCs; meanwhile mine are on the "meh" side of pretty. I know it sounds shallow, but if I have to stare at this character for dozens of hours, I'd like it to be one I like to look at, you know?  :unsure:

 

Oh... just to complete my weirdness, I actually have a transparent film I attach to my PC monitor so I can measure face proportions and make pen marks where facial features should be in order to keep proportion (same thing I did when I worked with CGI), than I fight my way with the CC... I mean, proceed to draw the character in the CC. Needless to say, I spent a good deal of hours(which was a bit frustrating this time around with Inquisition constantly crashing on my PC) in this process, but I manage it =)

Out of curiosity, how do you all get your screenshots? If you're PC gamers, do you Print Screen it? (Because mine doesn't work. I can successfully PrtSc anything, but when I tried with DA:O nothing happened, and when I tried with Inquisition it just pasted a black screen.) Does the game automatically take screenshots like DA:O did, upload it onto your Origin/EA account, then you access it that way?

 

I really want to share one picture, but so far haven't been able to. =(

I use the camera on my phone :P Do you run Inquisition full-screen or windowed mode? I had the same issue with ME2, pasting black images, but setting it to borderless window mode fixed it.

Camera phone, of course! Why didn't I think of that?!

 

On the other, yes. I run Inquisition on full-screen. Didn't see any reason not to. Next time I try to take screen shots, I'll try switching it over to some sort of windowed mode. =)

Current (2nd playthrough): Ennya Lavellan, the emerald crusader (think Cassandra but with elven faith). Has 2 adult (16ish) kids and a dead husband (originally a living one. Was supposed to be no-romance playthrough but couldn't resist going for Josie :P). Older character, closer to 40 than 30 though the signs of age are subtle:

Borderless Window works with the Print Screen key =)

Just made my first mage and I managed to snap a pretty good pic of him:

photo4_zpsfb71653b.jpg?t=1423355819

 

His name is Dorf'Fen (trans: 'grey wolf') and I'm debating whether I want him to be a Knight Enchanter or, possibly, a Rift Mage.  It's a moot point atm since I'm saving him for after my archer f!Cadash playthrough, which makes him my 4th Inquisitor.  My 5th Inquisitor will be a f!Dalish mage because my 5th world-state has my human-hating Tabris in it and I want to make her similar to him personality-wise, then headcanon that they hook up post-DA:I.  Want her to be a Rift Mage, but also want her to be a Knight Enchanter.  It's doubly difficult for me to decide since I'm planning on having her be in one of my fanfics and I'm not sure if I would be able to do the Knight-Enchanter's OPness (yes, that's a word now, I called it!) justice.

 

Meh, it's still up in the air for the moment.  It'll be a while before I actually get around to starting typing for it, so I still have 2 playthroughs of DA:I to decide which spec I want her to be.  I may also go Necromancer, but not completely sure about it.  Hmm...

(FINALLY managed to snap and upload this!!)

 

Picture1_zps0e57da5b.png

 

Revera of Clan Lavellan, the albino mage that specializes in Storm and Winter Magic.

 

Years ago, I headcanoned that Adaia and her young daughter (later the Warden Tabris) helped a young elven woman flee the city when her baby was discovered to have magic, so she could flee to the Dalish and save her child from the Circle. Now, I've tweaked it to fit the Inquisitor. It was both her parents, and her older brother was discovered to have magic when he was a little kid, while she was still a baby. Her father got caught and hung by humans on the outskirts of human society, while her mother and brother escaped with her into the forest. They later stumbled upon the Dalish through sheer dumb luck before they died of starvation and exposure.

 

Anything after this will probably bore you, so I'll spare you the details. Long and short of it is: City-born, Dalish-raised, made Keeper's First, very culturally neutral regarding elves thanks to her city elven family conflicting with her Dalish clansmen, proud of her elven heritage and people (regardless of their cultural standing), interested in all things elven, eternally thirsty for knowledge, and wants more than anything to help elves everywhere regardless of their cultural upbringing/standing.

 Wow that photo, the perfect moment to take a pic, 

 

Thank you! I waited all game to find a scene with lighting that good.

 

Most scenes have lighting like this:xPicture1_zps9cb7cad9.png

 

Or this:

 xPicture2_zpsee045196.png

 

Or this:

 xPicture3_zpsf94e7a02.png

 

Since most lighting in the game comes from candlelight or late afternoon sunlight, it often makes her skin, hair and eyes reflect the yellowish/orangish glow, or makes her hair look grayish in absence of glow. The scene I snapped above was one of the few photo ops in the whole game that could convey how ethereal, snow-white and ice-cold she's supposed to appear overall.

 

And I know, looks aren't everything. I just figured if I was going to share what she looked like, it should be something that conveys her overall demeanor.

 

<Spoiler> Hod do I do a normal Spoiler again?

 

I see the others have answered. Without spaces, [spoiler] [ / spoiler ].

 

Also, do you run your game on PC? If you want to use PrtSc (Print Screen) to take game shots, be sure the game display is on Windowed instead of regular Fullscreen. I couldn't take screen shots for the longest time till the others recommended changing them, now I'm addicted. >.>
