Upgraded my sad little ol' PS3 to a PS4 this week. So glad I did, the difference in graphic detail between the two is amazing! Who knew those little huts in the Hinterlands had grass on their roofs (my mind is blown
).
Anywhos, with a new system comes new character creating! This is my first new one - Arden.
Congrats on your upgrade! I just did the same thing, and I can't believe the difference! Not only graphics but load and save times. I am loving the game all over again!
@Lylliaa you are doing me too much credit sweetie
But thanks
@sagefic Sisters ?
ha! yes! but your gal has clearly learned how to tame her eyebrows & apply eyeliner. magey Trevelyan here was more into studies than personal grooming (which, btw, the no-makeup look is hard to pull off with this CC)
Beautiful, Mint
Thank you Ashara!
I love "The Crossroads" - But its quite a challange to get OK screens there i feel, since its a cutscene area, cant really move around with IQ as i would. But i managed to get a few that i was happy with!
Here is another!
That is the best male elf I have seen!
bearded Elf?
Taking Tharalen into the DLC. Had to upgrade from the Dalish Scout Armour I had him wear for about 8 levels but it just wasn't cutting it anymore. The green and grey works alright on him I think.
quoted the wrong thing, but is that a bearded elf?
*sigh* Long post is long....
*snip*
XD Glad you enjoy my silly comments!
And don't worry, I won't tell Vesania! Zezola looks a bit less....threatening like that But she's still beautiful in her own
derpyway XD I swear this moment can ruin the career of some Inquisitors before it has even begun...
MIHAELA IS BEAUTIFUL OMG. I LOVE HER! (And her smile is reaaaally nice). And I love these PJ retextures! It really suits her!
And Ashah' she always looks so graceful, it should be a crime xD
As for your comics, I LOVE IT! It made me laugh out loud.
I feel so honored haha x'D I love how you draw Adelaide and Ashah' XD It's like Adelaide is the friendly puppy and Ashah' the independent cat (please don't tell them, especially Ashah'vin )
And I love how you draw Vesania and Werra! You did them more than justice! You're really talented, you really got them right!
(yes, flowers and all for Werra)I think we're going to be the death of poor Cullen
Thank you so much for this (I saved the whole comics on my computer, hope you don't mind ) Too bad I can only give you one like D:
*snip*
Ha! Or more threatening, depends on your point of view. xD This reminds me, I never took that picture of Ashah (I don't think I ever took the flirting options with her... xD)
Thank you for you kind compliments. ^^ I'm still trying to find my "inner dwarf", it was so strange to play with Mihaela, especially after Zezola. 
Maybe it's also has to do with my real life height which is the closest to Adaar out of the four. x,D T-T
That cat metaphor is too accurate. haha Tbh Ashah'vin always reminds me of my cat. xD If she had blue eyes (which, funnily enough, she had originally) she would totally be my cat in human elf form.
Graceful is a really good way to describe her (thank you for pointing it out) that's totally the vibe I was going for. She's really prideful and a perfectionist, never shows any weakness, a straightforward kind of person, but a bit insecure inside when it comes to relationships. ^^
I don't mind it at all, I'm happy you liked it. ^^ Werra was especially a joy to draw. 
The little flowers and sparkles suit her too much. 
(I have their big sized portraits separately if you'd want them. ^^)
*snip*
Wow, as well. Very well done, the more I see such beautiful and mature elven designs the less I can stand watching my own babyfaced Inquisitor.
Thank you! ^^ The mature look was the first thing I wanted to achieve with her. ^^
@whiskasgirl: Thanks! And I love your elf's coloring. Thanks for the comic. It made me laugh. Corwin also had a case of unrequited love for commander Cullen before he fell hard for Dorian. Awkward.
*snip*
And just 'cause I cant stop myself
*Corwin in the shade
Thank you! ^^ I glad you liked the silly little comic drawing. It does good to my conscience.
I love Corwin btw. (Don't know if I said this already, but repeating won't hurt anyway. ^^) He has the uniquest face among the male Trevelyans I've seen. ^^
Playing on Jabaria so much these days that i almost forgotten about my CC addiction!
*snip*
AMAZING shots! I'd use them as my wallpaper for sure!
*snip*
Which led to me wanting to smash things so I made myself a Dwarf to get it out of my system. I've yet to finish the game with one so I'm hoping Geram will be the first.
Amazing dwarf! Love the effect with the tattoo! (There are too few dwarves on this forum.)
*snip*
Out of likes again... T-T But I love her so here you go: like+++!! 
Also I'm always jealous of other people's amazing Adaars.

Also, did you guys know there's a hair texture mod? *-* I've just found it, and it's amazing, my Adaar finally has REAL braids. *-*
quoted the wrong thing, but is that a bearded elf?
It is indeed, using one of the lovely complexion/stubble mods from the Nexus.
This is such a beautiful and etherial shot Mintsong. Very lovely

Haha i actually am using one of em right now, couldnt help myself! And Thanks!
Speaking of the Hair trexture mod, its so lovley! Skaramoosh is really good with the mods!
Been using it since it was open for download! And loving it, using the Realistic atm - Cause it does Jabarias hair best
Thanks Whiskas! Downloading it right now
Glad I was of help. ^^

I tried out both of them and went with the smooth one after all. Ashah'vin's braided hairstyle looked the best with it.
I'm trying out a lot of new lovely mods (and a reshade preset) atm, I don't even know how I lived without them. Haha.

Oh i love it, like the color shades of these shots!
ReShade is up next for me to try, figured ill make sure all my mods are doing what i want tho, I got Smooth and Realistic, just use diff on diff hairstyles/colors cause they do diff things Its nice to see that all the modders dont give up. Im trying to get into the hair mod things, Adela did that great guide!
I just have so limited time these days, loads to do at work for atleast 1 month more!
I am in this weird phase, where being in the CC and trying to create a gorgeous character is somehow more fun than playing the actual game - as mentioned, probably just a short phase, since it doesn't make much sense.
In any case, searched for "mature-elven-female-sliders" all over the internet and found nothing of interest, or with sliders - therefore tried to create it myself couple of times and failed miserably, respect to those few who managed to pull it off.
In the end I created her, she is something like a middle thing between babyface and mature woman - I suppose.
Started the journey on nightmare, since hard wasn't really hard.
Getting the jaw, cheekbones and cheeks kind of right in that cc environment was not amusing, to say the least - flaws are revealed mostly/only in cutscenes due to the different angles.
Enjoy!

My CC Phase as still not ended 
I do however keep myself from making another untill i finish off some... And i move in snail speed in game since i am a screener!

Ah, hair mods... I'm crossing my fingers for a nice hairstyle for Adaar. :3I am in this weird phase, where being in the CC and trying to create a gorgeous character is somehow more fun than playing the actual game - as mentioned, probably just a short phase, since it doesn't make much sense.

I daresay it can be borderline addictive.

To be fair, I remember seeing a beautiful design of your female elf - with an abstract sort of background, if I remember correctly.
I really liked it, was one of those designs where I would have performed a blood sacrifice. Seems like I really love to use that term, played too much as a mage it seems. As for remaking and restarting, I wouldn't even know which character the newest one would be.
- Started with a human mage.. more or less the default with another beard and hairstyle. Picked Templars by mistake, restarted.
- Human mage, picked mages - got into a romance with Cassandra and lost interest in that playthrough.
- Started a female Rogue, there the CC interest and addiction started... Templars.. searched and became an Assasin. Kept not liking the playstyle, it felt clunky and unprecise the whole time.
- Restarted as an elven mage, another cc addictional search and creation included - was the babyfaced one I posted, recreated her again with black hair - the plastic look bothered me the whole time - played it over half of the game for sure and felt the game wasn't challenging enough. Plus her design got kind of old.
. Restarted with this current female elven archer... so yeah, probably going with Templars this time, no point in supporting the evil mages, huehue.
Point being : Yeah, I have a serious issue with character-commitment in this game as well. Have to play this through this time, might even succeed since finding loot and better gear actually means something/is fun on nightmare, making life easier and progress faster.
Ha! I don't think that's a short phase at all.
I like the color harmony here, and the dark vallaslin is an insta-win for me.
If you plan to experiment with elven faces, this is the advice that helped me create my Ashah'vin a while back
True, it's a lot of fun - wouldn't be surprised if I tried to make other designs in the future, hopefully after I finish the game at some point.
It's interesting - and on the other hand logical - that players with a serious "dedication" to the CC have posted amazing designs here. Too bad that asking those people for sliders is always awkward as hell.
To be honest I have an issue with the elven physic, balancing out their cheekbones with their cheecks and the jaw while trying to secure the elven shape and not make them too human is challenging - at least for me, might be just a lack of practice.
Due to my low settings, shout-out to laptop warriors all over the world, creating a character without "too much make up" isn't really an option - tried to go with the least amount possible while saving the eyelashes from being random pixels. I had to give her a healthy sun tan, made sense to me that a Dalish had it - due to their living habits. As for the eye colour, looked better in the limbo environment on the cc, although still solid I think. Didn't really feel like going with blue or green, since those colours can be easily too dark or too light.
@Smof
Your female elf looks really good. You managed to avoid the babyface syndrome that seems to creep in if you try to make a good looking female elf. Do you have screenshots of your sliders by any chance?
This is my elf first, turned out ok, but looks a bit too cute in my opinion. Any tips on how to remedy that once Black Emporium is out?
Sliders can be found here: http://www.reddit.co...u/my_elf_first/
i, too, spent forever in the CC. it's like zeroing in on a fave look/playstyle, etc. then i get hooked on one and tend to stay there. i'm so into mage now, when i play my archer alt, i just take hold of solas so i can play mage. <<wait, that sounded dirty. ahem.
but yes, for my nightmare run, mage. it's not nearly as bad as i thought it would be. except when i go into flycam spamming screenies and then realize oops, i should have been playing attention to everyone's health bars. bad mage - forgot barriers.
Retour en haut
. I think I'll have another try.
