Thread: I want to LOOK like this in LOTRO! Please

This is Logethuil from the shrew stomping and she is the prettiest elf. Is there a way to get this into the CC but better give my current character a face change?

If you mean the face specifically, I agree. I don't understand why but it seems the elves are all super ugly!! So all my elven chicks have to have the same face because there's only one or two that are not so bad.

yes the small nose and the eyes are right

That one, along with all the other NPCs look like skins from real faces. Probably wouldn't work under the modeling system in LOTRO where you can change eyebrows, face shape, and all that other stuff.

Can you change your face shape at the barber shop? Maybe you can get close.

Get up close and see if they blink like you and other people's characters do. If so, then it is generated by LOTRO's face modeling and isn't a static one.

What beautiful eyes!!! It would be wonderful if more facial features became available, for all races. Lifelike ones. And that they'd be available to already created characters. Pretty much everyone looks like everyone else, I've noticed.

I can envision how it went down at the Turbine office,..

Hmm I need a woman elf face texture,...

notices cute Production assistant walk by with a tray of cookies,..

Hey you!! Wanna be in a game!?



history

Man, I would love this!

Hmmm, she can awake by my Cuiviénen anyday.





Um, that made sense, okay?

Zoom out a little, I want to see her left hand. Sigh.

Elven eyebrows are more tilted but yes the rest of the face is very pretty.

Very pretty yes and of course I would... if the opportunity arose . I still don't get the pointy ears though. I'm not sure I have ever read that Elves have pointy ears - didn't Dungeons and Dragons invent that?

I sort of always imagined elves as looking like humans - just very pretty/handsome, perfectly developed and proportioned humans.

Make my dwarf look like that please.

Jks.

I would pay to see this OP hacked to a pic of Rocky Balboa.

Which is sort of the way Ralph Baskhi depicted them, incidentally.


The pointy ear thing is really only alluded to in one place in Tolkien's writings (etymologies) dealing with the similarities between the Quenya words for "leaf" and "ear" and in truth it could be taken either way.

However, he does specifically state in one of his letters (can't recall where) that Hobbits had "slightly" pointed ears which were "elvish." So you can sort of take that as you will...

rofl!

Turbine should give players more choices though, in the way of faces etc.

She kind of looks like Janine Turner as she appeared on Northern Exposure. But yeah, I know what the OP means. A good looking elf is a rarity, after all, not everyone can be as cute as a hobbit

Ultimately, it wouldn't matter. I remember in NWN and NWN2, it never mattered how many faces/hairstyles/etc. became available, people were always looking for more. Kinda like the "Give an inch, take a mile." thing.

I think she looks a bit like Liv Tyler, but maybe I'm projecting.

Anyway, I would love improved facial models for elves, especially male elves which look very "man pretty". I would like to look like on of the Loth or Malledhrim elves.

All player elves in the game look like they are sniffing bad air. This may explain why there is a constant haze wherever they gather. It was never mentioned in any of the books that the elves suffer from severe gas but have developed it into such an elite sbd that even they don't realize that the ozone is being depleted by these tree huggers.
