Fanart: Dunmer and Bosmer portraits

Post » Thu Aug 18, 2011 7:39 am

Hello! I just finished some fanart and well, thought I would share. Some shameless self promotion, if you will :hubbahubba:

http://dsiwek.deviantart.com/art/The-Elder-Scrolls-Dunmer-253108138

Just finished it today :) *braces for dark-elf mohawk jokes* Sort of a sequel to the other pic I did back in March/April:

Thinking of doing an Altmer portrait just to round it off ^_^

Thanks for looking! :hugs:

They're both brilliant! I especially like the Dunmer one and I'm not even that big a fan of Dark Elves!

If only I could get a Dunmer to look that badass in Oblivion, things would be peachy.

Keep it up!

Thanks! Sadly, I couldn't get a dunmer to look how I wanted to without installing a mod to change the shape of their jaw entirely :/

Thanks!

Both were done mostly with watercolor pencils, and black gouache paint (kind of similar to watercolor paints, but more opaque) for the background.

I love these.

For some reason, even though there's no real background in either picture I'm imagining that the Dunmer is in a cave-based Sixth House shrine on Vvardenfell and doesn't like what he sees while the Bosmer seems to be in a sunlit forest. She seems pretty unhappy with what she sees too, but while the Dunmer seems a bit worried, she looks like she wants nothing more than to rip the face off what she sees and probably have it for dinner, considering the whole cannibalism thing the Bosmer have.

I'm looking forward to seeing the Altmer you're thinking of doing, if you do it.
