This was eating away at my brain today - What would Rook have looked like before the events of Veilguard?

On the left, I visualized my Shadow Dragon Rook as her 9:52 self before meeting Varric and starting the Pre-Veilguard journey. According to Solas, Rook was working with Varric for around a year before stopping the ritual, and a lot of things can change in that time.

My Rook was a bit of a party animal with the Shadow Dragons and a big drinker before getting kicked from Minrathous. She would have had more weight on her from heavy drinking and always having access to food. Her natural hair color is black, and she has her bangs cut.

After going off with Varric, she loses weight due to a lack of drinking and always being on the move. Given how scruffy her robes are at the beginning of the game, I assume they've been living a nomadic life for a while. She gains some muscle and ends up with a very lean build. Her bangs are grown out, she's dyed her hair red, and she does not wear as dramatic of makeup.

I really like that there is a clear visual difference between the two - Tarquin and Ashur probably did a double-take when she showed back up in Dock Town.

I’m just creating a visual reference for anyone who’s wondering which Captain America scene I took inspiration from for Knock At The Cabin Part Two. For no other reason. Nope. Nothing else going on here at all *clears throat* 👀

Because sameface syndrome is so common especially depicting Asians, I put together a quick and small reference for how to draw different types of faces.

Remember that "Asian" includes Southeast Asia, India, and west Asia as well! We're all not held to the beauty standards marketed by westernised Asian media exports! Even "mainstream" north eastern Asians do not always have the long face and white skin that you see in movies.

The opening image is a more photographic depiction of some different face shapes, but for a simpler image, eyebrow fashion is actually a good place to find face shapes. (Apparently styling the eyebrows to compliment the face shape is a thing. Who knew)

Averages of faces over a few countries. I do NOT recommend using these averages to reference characters, because every individual is unique. If you point at the "Filipino" square to say, "This is the faceclaim for my Filipino character!", you're once again in the Asian sameface hole. However, it's just a reminder that there are many, many different ethnicities that fall under the "Asian" category.

This eye shapes chart is quite simplified, and the appearance will change slightly depending if the eye is double or single lid. However, these are classic archetypes that are commonly identified in Chinese culture.

Translation, left -> right

Row 1:

Zuifeng eye (or fox eye) rarely seen

Danfeng eye (or phoenix eye) rarely seen

Peach flower

Row 2:

Apricot eye

Round eye

Hanging eye

Row 3:

Upper tilt eye

Willow leaf eye

Thin eye

I feel it's really important to note that the first two eye types, Fox and Phoenix, are the ones most commonly portrayed on Asian characters. However, they are actually the LEAST commonly seen in real life. Most people have some combination of the two lower rows.

Last but not least, people are not all lily white like in commerical ads. Makeup foundation swatches are a good place to reference skin tones in general, but I grabbed this image from Shiseido, a popular beauty store chain in Asia. Look at those variety of tones.

(And for the love of god please do not make your asian characters literally yellow. I will manifest on your doorstep with a pickaxe)

And that's all I have for now. Obviously not a comprehensive guide, because my cultural knowledge is limited to my own demographic, (and because nothing can comprehensively cover the wonderful variety of humans), but hopefully it can help a bit.

And very importantly, I don't advocate for any one feature over another, we are beautiful because of our differences.

Halsin & Shadowhwarts Cabin. The first floor layout to go along with my AO3 fic. Is she an artist? No. Is she a visual person who has to have some vague reference? Yes, unfortunately.

Please enjoy the tiny footprint and bird tracks relating to chapter 10 ✌️

I finally S Ranked all the missions!

Here are some memorable moments with my ACs Cypress (1,2,4) and Snow Serpent (3). AC6 was a really fun experience and made me realize that all my builds either revolve around reverse joints or slow weapons with big damage lmao

To the Architectural Student, who is earnestly seeking to gain a knowledge of the principles which guided the Master Masons of the Middle Ages in the erection and development of their glorious buildings, nothing can be more acceptable or of a greater service to him than representing in detail their mode of forming and setting out the smallest matters connected with their works, for it is only by studying in this manner that he can hope ever to arrive :it a thorough knowledge of Gothic Architecture. "With this object in view, both from the commencement of the "Gothic Ornaments" and also throughout the present "Work, I have endeavoured to elucidate every part that I have represented clearly and distinctly, and at as large a scale as the size of the book would allow.

In the two Works — I have now completed four volumes containing altogether upward* of four hundred plates — developing, in the first, Foliated Ornament and Coloured Decoration, and in the last, more particularly the constructive and practical " Details of Gothic Architecture." The manner in which they have been received by the Profession, and the many very flattering encomiums which have been passed upon them during the ten years that I have now been engaged upon them, assures me that I have not been labouring altogether in vain, and that they will not fail to become a welcome addition to the library of the Architect.

Upon issuing the Prospectus of " The Details," I stated that it was not my intention to interfere with the "Analysis of Gothic Architecture," by Messrs. Brandon, but that I should endeavour to more fully elucidate such features as were only paitially developed by them. To this I have adhered, and rather than interfering, it will be found that one work will be a great assistance to the other, and the possessor of one will find it to his advantage to procure the other.
