About this image
I was modding my own game and adding some jewelry icons for some personal stuff.. and then I was like.. well maybe I should do this for everything? So now I am. It's gonna be a few days, but I've already worked my way through a few of them.
The goal is to add unique icons for all Rings, Amulets, and Belts, and I want them to be a step above the way vanilla is done, more in line with DLC.
I am basing the icons, when possible, on their in game descriptions. This isn't always possible, since a description isn't always descriptive enough, but I'm doing my best. I am pretty happy with Dreamsever, and its description isn't very forthcoming.
This is the Morrigan's Ring.Most difficult project so far. I went with two images inside the ring itself. I wanted to make it look like the twists in the wood were opening up and displaying images. I have a bear and a nude woman in a fetal position (I should note that the original image had no genitalia or breasts showing, so neither does this.. so I don't think this qualifies as adult per se). For the background, I went with a rising moon motif, with three feathers superimposed over it, as an arrangement of feathers is unique to Morrigan's outfit. I felt it was close enough to indicating ownership (yes I know it's a present for male warden when he romances her).
My only real regret with this is that the detail is largely lost when shrank down to in-game sizes.. but at least we know they are there!
I spent about four hours on this I think. Definitely the largest and most difficult project.
Today I also redid Lloyd's ring to my satisfaction.
Current list of completed items:
Blood Ring
Dalish Battery
Dawn
Dusk
Dreamsever
Ember
Focus ring
Frostshear
Golden Ring
Hailstone
Keeper's Ring
Iced Band
Lifegiver
Lloyd's Magic Ring
Morrigan's Ring
Of course only now do I see the errors at the top and bottom of the image. What can I say, I feel like crap today and can barely see straight. That's already fixed.

I have those kind of headaches too. I hope you feel better soon!
Ring of Ages
Ring of Faith
Ring of Resistance
Ring of Selection
If I'm still feeling it after those, then I will do more. I would like to finish this mod in a couple weeks. It's a lot of work, but I'm largely enjoying it.
Wish I thought of it a couple years ago :p If DA Inquisition has similarly bad icons and no 3D models, I would likely be willing to do this again if they make the game accessible to modding.
