It's taking far too long for the remaining characters to surface. BGS should just release them already.

What happened to Tom Chick's screen you linked to yesterday? All I got was a 404 error.

Lol, I don't usually play beast races, but my favorite screens are the two female Argonians, and the first Khajiit screen on the list.
I also like the female Redguard.

I like Morgan Webb's Argonian because of the hood, and the other because it is a good sharp, clear image.

The female Redguard I like, because it shows me that there will be good diversity in character creation for human types.

The first Khajiit is my favorite.

Of course Sibyl will be listed as a Breton, even though here parents will be Breton (mother) and Nord (father).

On departure from captivity, Sibyl, frightened and filthy will use extreme caution to get to a town. Her first thoughts, after survival, is a bath.
A tub filled with warm water and some soap would be a dream, but a stream, lake, or even well water will be a good start.

Yea i'd say that's definitely an Altmer and I love the design. All of the races look spectacular. I believe we've seen an Imperial in armor in a Riverwood screen although you have to really zoom in to make out any detail. I believe Breton is the only race that hasn't been shown at all.

Does this REALLY need another thread, even though nothing new has been released?

The first thing I'm going to do is head for the moonlit wilderness, remove all of my clothing and (hopefully, if they're in) go pick a fist-fight with the first werewolf I come across...

Yo vsions!! Lovin' the races. Most incredibly detailed humans/humanoids I've ever seen in a video game! Great job!

Do you think you could tell us when we'll get more screens? If not, it's cool.

booty what's your opinion on the matter?
which race would you like to see next and what are you predicting for them to look like?

I've pointed this out before. I recon that it does resemble a female Altmer more than anything else, and judging by her appearance, perhaps the Altmer can be designed to appear very much like what satisfies 'nightcobra'.

if the altmer look something like this then i'd be able to bear them :P

I concur. Of course, I hadn't expected anything to be aweful, even in the least. Meaning, despite the fact that Imperials and Bretons and for the most part, Altmer, have been absent, I am comforted in their eventual appearance considering that I have not been dissapointed with what we have seen so far. Especially since these new batch of characters weren't professionally made, and still look fine.

Nice pics!

I'm just hoping for at minimum some greater differentiation between Bretons and Imperials (and between Bosmer, Dunmer and Altmer) than what we had in Oblivion.

If Bretons have slightly more Mer-ish features than they did in Oblivion, I would be quite pleased.

I think they should have tiny elf ears like in Lord of the Rings. That and look a bit more guant than the other races as their Oblivion concept art implied.

My main gripe with the race designs, so far, is that the elf races are too similar. Sure there's some differences, but between the "high customization" they've been promising and what we've seen so far, I fear it will be easy for an elf of one race to become indistinguishable from another race. Especially the Wood Elves... in previous games, they were short and devilish looking, and almost child-like in a way. Even in Oblivion, you could tell the elf races apart with little trouble. But the first Skyrim Wood Elf pic released had people confusing it with a Dunmer due to the purple-ish skin tone and menacing look. And the second one doesn't lend itself to the "short, devilish" appearence of previous games, either; if it wasn't for the browin-ish skin tone, I would've though it could be a High Elf.
