Face Texture Tweaks 

by Ellise

A bunch of face texture edits I've been hoarding, nothing fancy, but I thought I'd share.

A rundown of the changes made:

Josie: Less eye makeup, cleaned up her brows, added a bit more freckling on and around her nose.

Leliana: Tweaked her brows (fuller, but still very groomed), removed the yellow in her eyeshadow.

Cass: Pulled up the inner corner of her brows to minimize stretching, removed the makeup under her eyes, darkened her eyeshadow "wings" to try and emulate her concept art makeup, tweaked her upper lip a little.

Vivienne: Reduced shine somewhat, lighter eyeshadow, pinker lips, tweaked the shape of her brows.

Sera: Reduced shine, removed some stretched beauty marks, added kohl around her eyes + some light freckling.

Bull: Removed his 'stache and the scruff on his chin. (soul patch?) Made this out of curiosity and ended up preferring his mustachioed self but...bah maybe someone will enjoy it. ;)

23/02: - Updated to .dai format (Made with DAI mod tools v1. 26 alpha, patch 5 required) - Normal Maps are now ATI2N - Added a version of Cass with her vanilla makeup

Installation:

Install using the DA:I Mod Manager.

Ehamloptiran, WarrantyVoider, wogoodes, Renmiri and all the good folk working on the DAITools, without whom none of this would be possible.
