I always enjoy your shots, Groo, especially your very unique looking character, Sin.

However, we have asked that people only post a maximum of 3 full-size shots/post, and the rest be links or thumbnails. This is from the op:

"To help out those with slower connections please only post at most 3 full size shots and put the rest as links or thumbnails."

Yay! New comments thread! I hopes to see many great screens a coming from everyone.

@greatfool1: I really appreciate the feedback about the base Landscape texture. I always appreciate feedback from friends about my works, whether they are pictures or mods. Course I may have to Contact Prometheus for some tips though. At current, After importing with TESAnnwyn, it seems I will have to do a lot of erosion in the Heightmap to get things relatively smooth while keeping the high peaks.

Plus I can't seem to get the sea level at the right level yet. :angry:

@ highpressure - Great dance number there - the music really went well with the pace of the animation! Edit: Damn, Karandras already said that! Oh well, it really did!

And speaking of Special K:

Greatfool1
Post #5(slide show): Nice slide show, "interesting" song :) Creative angles blocking everything ;)

Suggestions/questions/answers to questions
: What is the name of that song in the slide show?

Thanks! That song is "Kiwi" from Maroon 5's latest CD "It Won't Be Soon Before Long". Great CD, lots of good stuff, though I like their earlier one better... well, maybe not better.

When Ginny mentioned New Zealand $s the other day, and I saw her hot Lana character, I was also playing the song "Kiwi" and I couldn't help myself with the slideshow. (In reality, it was Brinn's boyfriend's wet dream that I happened to be filming, but don't even ask how I happened to be there.)

Groo: They might be reposts, but they're new to me (damn you, month-long hiatus! :rtfm: ). The dude has some interesting gear on (I'm really digging the mask), as well as some interesting living arrangements.

Radicus: Now isn't she a haughty thing? The glasses and the expression give that impression anyway, and gives her a very neat appearance. And the blue sunset does look nice, gives the scene a very surreal and alien appearance.

Shadow': Some very pretty characters, and some awesome-looking swords as well. Zero's my favorite you got there, especially with the sunset shot, very pretty. Aiyla's Distant Fire pic is also good; it's an interesting scene, and I think her flaming sword adds a neat touch to it. Did she cause the fire? :devil: Nice action shots too, the Dremora impaling is cool; I like how the cold colors of the sword contrast with all the hot colors in the pic, makes it look more heroic. Her expression in the last one is good, looks sad, and the pose of her dead friend is good. Could have done a better job on the blood, though.

Greatfool1: Naughty, naughty, a slight shift with the camera, and you wouldn't be able to use the IMG tags. ~_^ That dude's got some mad tats, though. Too bad for him the red-head didn't appear interested in a ménage à trois.

Floydian1: Excellent lighting in this pic here, especially on the sword, very bright (and it's a wicked weapon in its own right)! And the Balrog looks flippin' cool standing against that starry backdrop; the starry blue heavens give an interesting contrast against his fiery, demonic hide.

Soul Slayer: Mmmm, got a good barbeque going there, and a nice view over here. I like how the reflections of the mountains turned out on the water.

Darziak: Cool sequence of shots. The impaling one is good, his positioning appears authentic, and looks like he was really caught unawares (though the blood could use some work), and I like his falling position. Any specific tricks you did pulling that off?

Rogue Sun: :blink: That's...all I can say about this. It's yet another beautiful shot of yours! The angle is good, the nebula is captivating, the sense of depth is spot on (the moon appears considerably closer to us that the nebula), and the glowing star in the corner is the cherry on top to a most excellent composition of the night sky. I would certainly be enjoying it as much as the lass there certainly is.

Highpressure: Ah, the pieces of the sky we can see here is lovely, she better be enjoying it. As for the re-textures, they're looking good so far. The transparencies look spot-on, and the flowery patterns in the lace are very detailed and intricate, especially on the legs. Really like the asymmetry the patterns have going on on them.

Ghinnyfizz: Heh, Deceiving Armor is a fitting name for it; they call it armor, but it hardly protects anything. ^_~

Von Stahlriven: Lil'ith, very fitting name for her, her pose and expression give an air of seduction. Hmm, I'm looking at it, and I'm getting kind of creeped out; her eyes seems to follow you...

In regards to the blood (which sentence I bolded), I tried. I really did. But my photoshop skills make children cry.

Well, I wouldn't exactly say he's friendly. :devil: Or out to truely help people. Unless it;s 6 feet under never mind the pine box. That animation is one of the Sheogorath cane animations from AiM.

Comments from me will have to wait for a bit later. Eyes are still buggy from trying to read 100's of microscopically printed class schedules, and I've got an incredible urge to take a battle axe to all the phones I can.:wall: Excellent shots of what I can see though. :cheers: :)
