Description
I tried to get an emissive map on Anders' face and body working in Blender so that I wouldn't have to paint all those glowy lines that he gets when Justice goes whomph myself ( i.imgur.com/gUCEeI0.jpg ), but for some reason it made his eyeballs visible through his head and I am too much of a dumbass to figure out why it did that. The more I fiddle with Blender the more I realise how much I just don't know about it.So that's why he doesn't have any because I failed at painting them myself (they looked terrible). Also sorry for ruining his hair.
I...Hope this looks okay? I went through a couple of different backgrounds and colour schemes and I'm still not convinced by the end result. Bluuh.
ANYWAY I LOVE ANDERS SO I MADE ANOTHER PICTURE OF HIM. Ish. I guess this is Justice
Anders extracted by Berserker79

Wow, you drew them so well! They look good even without the glowy lines!

Thankyou! I should stress that this wasn't drawn - it's a heavily edited render ^^

Oh okay, I don't know much about 3-dimensional art but it's still good nonetheless.

Hey, am I right to say Anders is one of your favorite DA characters? 
BTW, in order to apply an emissive map in Cycles I followed the input provided in the answer to the question posted here: [link] . I thinks this may be helpful in order the "glowy lines" on Anders/Justice face, but you'll have to paint the "mask" texture yourself I'm afraid (never found one in the DA2 files). As for adding the eyes, I thought that throwing an emissive shader into whatever nodes setup you use for eyes should do the trick, but I've never tested this.

Oh yes, I adore Anders <3
And Alistair and Cullen and Varric...Bwah, too many amazing characters in those games!
Thankyou for the link! It made me realise my problem was not having a black base background for the texture I was using (I pinched a lightning-y texture from the DA2 files, I think it was actually called 'crack') and then my attempts to get it to recognise the transparency so the glow wasn't nasty block colours was probably causing the error.
I possibly also had the mix shader for the emission too far down the line? I haven't messed with that too much, but previous experience has shown me Blender can be a stickler about correct order. No idea.
Was trying to set it up the same way I did the glowing eyes, since they had no problem. Anyway, thanks again!

He is my top pixel love, yesterday, today and tomorrow ❤️so thank you a thousand times... as much as I do love his appearance in the game, if I imagine him with my femHawke, I picture him as Tom Mison from Sleepy Hollow series... check him out, he's my Anders faceclaim forever

I think he looks awesome! Even without the glowy lines I still saw Justice as soon as I saw this thumbnail. Love the snarly, beat-up look (what is it about the snarls that's so attractive? XD ) I also think his hair looks perfectly fine, too

^^ I do love making snarly expressions. One day I hope I'll be able to do a proper one - you know, with the nose wrinkles and bared teeth and all that.
Thankyou for the kind words, as always <3
