@ Zombie216 - Very nice work. I especially like the flowers. :coolthumb:

My pictures cannot keep up with such gorgeous screenshots :blush:

I don't make "beautiful" characters myself (least none that would plave in any Tamrielic beauty contest), so have been in rather the same mind-set as JazzJR. But, reading what kalia and SeV had to say, well, I might just post one or 2 of my not-so-gorgeous characters in the possibles thread. :)

@ Cosmic-Banana - Post some pics of your trip when you come back! And have a good trip :D

@ Treetop Smoker - Looking forward to the animation release. :)

Yikes! I've been gone for too long, and the thread has passed me by! Stupid busy schedule...and lack of inspiration...grrrr! Alright, wi'out further ado, time to comment on this thread before it goes!

@Darziak: Ha ha ha! This one is hilarious! I've never been able to get an arrow through the head, though, is this pic edited? Aside from that, these two shots are great, very scenic and atmospheric. The falling snow, ghostly moons, and the character's obscured face lend an air of mystery. This one is just beautiful! And aside from that, you've demonstrated a lot of humor in others. The situations, poses, and dialogue are hilarious. This one especially, it's just so random! :ROFL:

@Luchaire: The new hair suits Lydia quite well. Now she doesn't just look like a goth, she looks like a goth/punk rocker!

@Treetop Smoker: SSSSSSAAAAAAKUUUUUURRRRRRRAAAAA! [Draws his Dragon Slayer] DIIIIIEEEEE! Ahem, sorry 'bout that, never cared for the character she looks like she's based off of. Doesn't detract from the pics though; looks like you've been having fun with the Bloody Mess mod! I like this one here, how resigned she looks. And this chick looks pretty cool. The mask and swords give her a very dynamic appearance. And where did the new animations come from?

@VanQa: Ha ha ha ha ha! Remember: His realm, His rules! So for your own good, let Him enjoy the view! Anyway, for the first time, I notice your character has an odd pale complexion here (probably only shows up in that light), gives her facial skin tone an uneven appearance.

@Chimera
: Sasha certainly does have the hair to match the Saint Armor! It helps give her an exotic beauty in this image. Like the dialogue in disowned series of pics, brings humor to an otherwise glum situation.

@Soul Slayer
: The architecture in this series of shots is wonderful! Very archaic and alien; looks like you're putting the Orrery meshes and textures to good use (that plugin's only saving grace). I especially like this one, it's so...odd! A small seating place on top of a very large bed canopy! Outside of that, this shot is awesome! Love the view it's taken from, with the grass in the foreground, though it gives the impression she's being watched...

@LprMan: Excellent pics you got here! A lot of nice atmosphere, especially in this, this, and this! Great scenery here as well; I can't quite put my finger on it, but there's something rather melancholy about it...

@Floydian
: Your fairy is really pretty, though i personally like the shorter hair style on her better. I like her flying out of the sewers here, and hiding in the flowers here. ALso like her fighting the Imps, and sitting on this chest here. Gives a good impression of her size. And props to the minotaur pic, looks very athentic. :cheers:

@Grimbot: What a gem. I want a describe what I like about it in poetic way, compare it to great works of artistry, anything but the one blunt term that I'm trying to avoid to sum it. Heroic! Divine! Mighty But nothing else comes to mind, so I have no choice. That. Dude. Is. Bad. Ass!

@JazzJR: Ah, the new character is neat. This shot is awesome, love how you can see one of his large glowing eyes peering out. Sinister.

@Von Stahlriven: Wow! This guy's really cool-looking, and he's still in prison clothes. Agent 47, is that you?

@RogueSun: Wow, that is seriously awesome! It's not enough that you have a unique steed I've never seen before. It's not enough you have it in a great pose. You've put it on a bright background against a sky! It's very heroic looking, reminds me of a lot of fantasy paintings. Excellent work!

@Karandras: Yep, those Argonian eyes are awesome-looking. Make the lizards look very intimidating, moreso than the Dremora (sorry, guys, it's true!). Good action shot, by the way. And the chandelier shots are awesome, good poses. Lining up the hand with the cord must've been a pain. The cave shots are lovely. Like how shimmery the "ceiling" is, how light pours through the holes, the angle of this shot, with the flowers...wonderful job!

@Zombie216: Heh, heh, heh, use enough arrows? It's a nice death shot, he's got a good slump, and I like the heart slipping out of his hand. And you've got a cool scenery shot too. Lovely cloudless night sky full of stars and a bright moon. I'd like to get it too. As for your tattoos, they're very colorful and nice-looking.

@Yorkmaster
: Good shot here. The dusky environment and obscuring grass evoke a very grim mood to it, which is good; nothing positive comes out of Hackdirt!

@Jackmix69: Nope, don't know where that hammer comes from, but that Grummite looks like he's going to learn the only important thing about it. :devil:

@fyrefae: Oooh, awesome! There's no way the night sky over the Isles cannot look good, and the glance back on the character looks like she notices as well! Such a strange but beautiful anomaly! As for the face, she seems to look a little masculine, though I'm not so sure why. Female facial structure is always very tricky.

@CapsAdmin
: NIIIIICCCCCEEEEE! Great atmosphere, excellent photoshopping skills. And with its composition, this would make one hell of a wallpaper!

@Flucidity: Sneaky, you snuck in a, ah, "non-offensive" nudity shot (hate using that term, since I don't find nudity offensive, but oh well). I'd like to get a few more angles on the tattoo she's got, it looks really cool!

@Cosmic-Banana: Great atmosphere! The blood...the shimmer...the suit! A zealotous witchhunter who takes his business seriously!

@Chiglet: Interesting idea of how an Atronach sees the world, with mostly red and its opposite, green. The final version is the best, but it's a bit too intense. Maybe try varying the shades a bit, and maybe making them appear as if even the Flame Atronach's vision itself if fiery. Also, the museum's a pretty neat idea, I especially like the pose of the Clannfeare.

Thank you so much for the birthday wishes, everyone! :wub: :wub: although now I have a sore behind from all the spankings. :crying: Are you ready to hear what I got?

... A TRAMPOLINE!

So the reason I havn't been posting is because I have been bouncing. And the tour of England thing. But mostly bouncing.

Everyone's shots are looking beautiful! I keep seeing Kvatch shots which makes me feel very unoriginal - mine will be totally boring by the time I get round to posting them! I love the new animations Treetop is teasing us with, especially the stretching. I haven't switched Oblivion on once this whole week, do you realise how sad that's made me? Looking forward to some quality time this coming week, though ^_^

Luchaire, I love your new character. I noticed that the face proportions of the three characters in your sig look slightly similar - do you use the same base for them?

It's good to be back, chickies :hug: xxxx

One word... photoshop
Well two words...tattoofreak learningphotoshop . So, many of my posts are 90% of experimentation. Thanks for the compliment :D I have friends that are tattooists, and i have 1 Oni on right rear shoulder, (from when I lived in Japan) and a few assorted smaller tattoos, 2 others from Japan. Some of the pics I get off the internet, and some are scanned. so i do a little layer mixing here and there and just mess around.
If you (or anyone else) has photoshop, or gimp, or a paint program that can handle PSCS3 PSD files, i can post an upload for ya. :)


sure, id love to try using them if you wanted to upload, I just started using Gimp and Photoshop so that would be a nice little project for me to work on during my upcoming week of vacation :) (woohoo!)

CapsAdmin: Very nice picture there, it goes very well with your golden saint one, would you mind if i made a wallpaper mixing the 2 together?

Go ahead. :) Or, I'm working on another screenshot I took that looks more like the goldensaint one. The angle.


Cool thank you, After a bit of work this is what I came up with this I hope to do a little more work on it because atm the person wearing the Darkseducer armor got their face a little messed up :)

@Karandras: Yep, those Argonian eyes are awesome-looking. Make the lizards look very intimidating,
moreso than the Dremora (sorry, guys, it's true!). Good action shot,
by the way. And the chandelier shots are awesome, good poses. Lining up the hand with the cord must've
been a pain. The cave shots are lovely. Like how shimmery the "ceiling" is, how light pours through the holes, the angle of this shot,
with the flowers...wonderful job!


Thank you for the compliment! yea it took me close to 20 minutes to find a good animation for swinging on that rope :) And yes I do agree that Argonians can be more intimidating that Dremora sometimes, somehow though Witseidutsei has never quite gotten to me that way the Sigil Keeper has in Kavach :)

Edit:

Treetop Smoker: Is that soul caliber and soul edge in your first two pictures? Oh and how did you manadge to get that effect on the ground in picture 3? it looks amazing

I never played Soul caliber....:( I duuno. Their are called The Nightbringer, Vampiric Sword. The 3rd screen I used a spell Called The Holy Burst !!


oops, it seems i missed this one the first time around, sorry. Anyway i was wondering how you were able to use that spell? is it a mod or one in-game thats not castable without the console command that gives all spells?

I just took aim and fire at him from that distance and killed him in one shot (which should happen anyway :P) and no editing was required. The next two shots originally was just going to be her walking down the road at night then suddenly it began snowing at a place where it shouldn't snow! but it proved to be quite usefull in fufilling a good shot. The "friends forever" shot came together when just looking at the shot and thinking of the appropriate words.

It's good to be back, chickies :hug: xxxx

Welcome back. :)

Thanks for the input Xetirox. :) I'll see what I can do with the intensity and all. Right now, the editing program I'm using is PhotoStudio5 and I'm not sure what all it can do. Been lazy and haven't downloaded Gimp yet, and my Photoshop Elements refuses to open. The museum is actually a mod, Natural History Museum v1.1, and I don't have control over the poses of the displays. :) But I do think that the person who made the mod did a good job of posing them.

Okay with a little bit of work i have made up a new version of the Dark Seducer/Golden saint wallpaper. I kinda went a little overboard though and instead of making just one i made 4 slightly different pictures using Photoshop in 3 different resolutions each, I guess i learned from my last photoshopped picture (the storyline) that not everyone shares my opinion of what looks good (yea I know, common sense, I'm still working on that one :) )

Anyway here are the pictures.
Note 1: All of these ae based on CapsAdmin's wonderful pictures, i had nothing to do with the originals :)
Note 2: The 1280x1024 resolution ones couldn't be uploaded on photobucket without being shrunk so i had to put them on hotlinkfiles.com
Note 3: If you see a picture you like and want it in a different resolution id be happy to make it up for you, just ask :)

No editing version
800x600
1024x768
1280x1024

Minor lens flare
800x600
1024x768
1280x1024

Major lens flare
800x600
1024x768
1280x1024

Glow
800x600
1024x768
1280x1024

wow thats a lot of links. Anyway if even one person finds a nice looking picture in there I guess it will all be worth it, Thank you very much for letting me make up these wallpapers CapsAdmin, keep up the great pictures :)

Luchaire, I love your new character. I noticed that the face proportions of the three characters in your sig look slightly similar - do you use the same base for them?


Well, two are [modified] bretons and one's a nord, so no, not really. But most of my characters end up with some degree of similarity, usually in the jaw/chin shape. Cheekbones vary, eyes vary, but somehow I always seem to end up with the same chins and jaws - guess it's a subconscious thing related to what I find attractive. Probably the same thing for many people - like all of Chimera's characters have very similar features; Floydian's Sia and Sapphire are practically the same girl with different coloring; etc. :)

True! I know I have a set numerical log of sliders that I use to help me get my faces the way I like... which is usually based on my favourite character. So you're quite right.

I'm not complaining, anyway, because your characters are all beautiful!

Well, I was about to post there but it seems to have disappeared... in any case, here is my comment.

I for one do not care how short your replies are or how long you need to complete your texture backlog, etc, as long as your health doesn't suffer. I mean, imagine throwing a hissy fit at someone for putting their health and well-being over posting on an internet forum! And I'm sure every single person here would say the same. You are a much-loved and very valuable member of this community, and I'm certain I can speak for everyone when I say that all we care about is that you concentrate on yourself and do whatever it takes to feel better.

Take care my dear x Thinking of you!

Well it looks like thread number 9 is done with so i guess its time to go over the last few posts before we move onto a new thread :)

Treetop Smoker: Wow I really hope I can get my hands on those animations and start using them soon, I can think of a lot of uses for them already :)

Soul Slayer: Very nice picture there, i really like how you can see the stars overhead :)

Treetop smoker (2): Is it just me or do you have an insane amount of custom armor and weapons? It seems like almost every shot your character is wearing or using something different :)

Floydian 1: umm..wow, thats alot of blood... yea um... i think i just lost my desire for food :) I'm all seriousness though nice fight with the Arctic bear :)

Soul Slayer (2): Another very nice shot, how did you get them to hold hands? It looks amazing

Floydian 1 (2): lol, the fairy on their little unicorn looks so neat :) And i see im not the only one making use of Trollfs new cave :)

Treetop Smoker (3): See my reply above for my thoughts concerning these pictures :)

Zombie216: I agree with you on the Exnems thing, there are a ton of armors i want "exnemised" (if thats even a word) that still haven't been done :)

Soul Slayer (3): I really like the look of that armor, what is it called? I am trying to get evey armor there is for Exnems :)

And that brings an end to thread 9, On to Thread 10! Happy screenshotting everyone :)

Edit: Gah! There was a post 201, now I'm completely off track. Oh well thats normal :)

Floydian 1: More amazing pictures, i really like the first one :) Oh and I'm sure this has been asked before but I just didn't notice it, how do you have an armored dragon? He (she? it? they?) look really neat :)

I love this one, the look one her face is soooooo beautiful, a woman that looks at me like that can get anything she wants. :wub:

@soul slayer , great pic i love how you got them to hold hands :hug:

The armor is Opale Armor, I think it matches Jasmine's eyes rather nicely.

The hands holding shot was made by using FRAPS to record a video of the ladies swimming idle, then extracted the frame where the hands lined up with WMM, I have more shots of them in the pool, but I don't yet have a place to host 'em. :Tasty:
