Description
Bethany Hawke as possessed by the spirit of Justice : all credits for coming up with this idea of a Bethany/Justice "merger" go to and her "My Lioness" DA2 fanfic (see chapter 67 [link] ).This is still a WIP since I want to work more on the "Justice effect" textures and the pose (used an older pose here just to make a quick - sort of - render).
CREDITS:
Posed/rendered in XPS 10.9.6 and edited in Paint.NET.
Models used:
Bethany/Justice model and Apostate's Courage staff extracted by me.
Urn of Sacred Ashes scenery model extracted by lezisell [link]
Additional resources used:
Thorsglow from simple candle model by BubbleCloud [link]

Thank you, I'm glad you like it! Post-processing does wonders at times, isn't it? I got a bit lucky when combining the layers of the "spell effect", but overall I'm pretty proud of the result. Still working on improving the model currently, but I'll get back to finish the work as soon as I can!

You are more than welcome and yes it really does do wonders at times post-processing. I've done that before but ended up not knowing how to recreate the effect. I literally now save psd all the time and keep all layers so I can inspect what I did to create the effect.
But it really is a great effect

I'm really glad you like the result! Spending my time to work on a suitable model and making this render was a pleasure.
BTW, I've been making improvements to the model and I intend to make a new render as soon as I've completed a few other projects! Still no idea whether to use the same pose as this one or an entirely new one... Also, what do you think about her staff? Did you have any specific staff in mind when you thought of Justice Bethany or does Apostate's Courage look good in your opinion? Feel free to let me know if/when you have the time!

I didn't have a staff in mind, but I like Apostate's Courage here. Β It really is an amazing piece. Β

Oh no, it's not a good idea to get on her bad side: as a host for Justice she became quite a tough girl not to be messed with!
And thank you for letting me know the spell/Justice effect look good and for ing!

Thanks! For the "Justice effect" I've used the "fake emissive effect" with render group 21 and added some blue glows for the eyes and the spell. I'm still experimenting with the thorsglow effect in XPS to improve the "Justice effect" so as to make it look more "glowy"!

Oh you use 21 for that effect? I've been using 31 for ages. I wonder which looks better

That's what I love about feedback: I never tried out rg 31... Lol, I'll have to look it up in the chart to figure out which textures it needs! And I'll let you know which one looks better among 21 and 31 after testing.

Indeed! Hopefully Justice will not be twisted into a spirit of Vengeance with Bethany as the host in place of Anders...
Also, thanks for the !

Any sane templar will steer clear of Justice Bethany if they want to keep being healthy, that's for sure!
