Version 1. 2 update:
Smoother skin. More defined features creating deeper shadows in the face (especially cheekbones and forhead). No scar in forhead and no cleft chin. Less noticable beard. Hair reworked and fixed (neckhair added and more realistic hairline). "Dirt" removed.
Description
This is a retexture of Solas' head and face. I grew tired of his boring pale face and wanted to give him a darker, more worn, look. I tried to make his face similar to the concept art of the game (more defined cheekbones etc.). I've given him deeper shadows in the face, thicker eyebrows, slightly redder ears, recoloured lips, more stubble, a little bit of dark hair and pale scars.
You might see a pale line going down the middle of his head (where the texture folds together), but I hope it's not very noticeable.
Hopefully I'll get around to fixing any issues as I develop as a modder.
Add to the game using DAI Mod Manager.

⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2015—might not be compatible with the latest game patches or DLC.
- Only affects Solas' head and face, so it's a minor visual tweak, not a full overhaul.
