Dragon Age Inquisition Portraits (WIP)

Post by PinkPoodle »

I really like Dragon Age and I've been having fun playing Inquisition. I tried to make a pattern of some of the character tarot cards, but with the level of detail those would have to be done on tiny aida with a billion colors. Right now I'd rather not spend that amount of time on a project. But I thought the Dragon Age Keep portraits were pretty cool so I chose those instead. The first one I did was Cullen. He's on red aida because I chose to romance him.

I'm currently working on Dorian and I think I'll start Sera when he's done. I'm doing each character in a different color aida. They'll either be hooplas or a quilt when I'm done, I haven't decided yet.

Great idea! And I am so tempted now to do a project involving the tarot cards... but like you said, who has the TIME. I think the Dragon Keep portraits was a really good choice. Can't wait to see the whole set!

Thank you! I definitely have the time to do the tarot cards (my bf goes to bed at like 6 or 7 so I have lots of free time), but big projects on tiny aida tend to drive me crazy. I thought the DA Keep style would be great since there aren't a lot of facial features.

I used PC Stitch. It's really worth the money, I've made and stitched about 6 or 7 patterns using it. You have to be careful not to limit the amount of colors too much, but if you let it work with too big of a pallet, you'll be switching threads every 2 stitches or so. It takes a few times to get the hang of it, but I really like the program.

Ahh your Dorian one looks so incredible. I romanced him with my m!Lavellan inquisitor and I love him so much. Totally worth making a file for.

I love Dorian. I'm so mad that your female character can flirt with him, but then you learn the awful truth that he's not interested in women. I almost cried.

(I don't know about anyone else but it'd be nice to have a renegade Shepard style option so I can punch Dorians dad...)
