More Argonian fashion! They're not fully rendered, just flats and some basic shading, plus some fun with the scales.

These designs are more historically based, particularly on ancient Aztec and Mayan cultures. I had a lot of fun researching and learning, Also, a spread of designs for the body types too! I personally like the Morrowind Argonian design best, but I wanted to try out human legs and such. The two in the middle are male Argonians and rhe other two are female. Some fun history and design notes under the cut!

Another pride month drawing!

Hey look - New hat!

Or I thought Joshi needed a hat since he's all in the snow. There's a larger winter Ashkhan-wear fit that I wanna design. Thought a börik would be fitting and had to continue that vibe with the patented emotional support cig.

Rules: Choose a bird that fits your OC (or blorbo), no matter if it's based on behaviour, looks or pure vibe and tag your friends after to see which fun oc-bird-combos they come up with!

tagged by @theoneandonlysemla thank you! This tag game is perfect for me 🤩 love birds so fucking much. Not sorry for the long list!

Warning: two bird photos have dead prey in them

Lilliandra

Harpy Eagle! it's one of the largest eagles in the world! Visually magnificent, almost regal, but also built to seize and break things. This matches with Lilli's height and her more predatory streak. She's not a delicate songbird; she is a canopy predator with gold eyes and terrifying hands. Their talons are similar in size to a grizzly bear's claws!

This also matches that she has a pet harpy eagle for falconry (that was originally her father's). Which, when it dies, she'll make into a undead familiar. :)

Miraak

Miraak is a hard one for me. I'm stuck between Bearded vulture and Golden eagle.

Bearded Vulture are a severe, solitary, bone-eating mountain bird. It feels right for someone who has survived in a hostile place for far too long. Golden Eagles are also large, solitary birds that are apex predators — just a bit more majestic looking.

Ophelia

Barn Owl! Quiet, strange, observant, soft-looking but eerie. Barn owls feel almost ghostly and I think they fit Ophelia quieter traits: watching from stillness, noticing small movements, being present without being loud. Also, even though it's a predator, it has a softness to it compared to the birds I chose for her parents!

Elikar

Northern Goshawk! They're intense working predators: practical, watchful, and dangerous when something enters their territory. I think it fits Elikar's soldier background, his protective streak, and his sense of duty without making him feel flashy.

Serana

Raven! I feel like this is so "expected," but I still wanted to add Serana to the list! :) Intelligent, tied to death, memory, and survival — I feel like it fits her well.

Cinnara

Cinnara gets two birds as her arc progresses.

Weaverbird for her beginnings. They're makers: delicate, precise, domestic in a skilled way, building intricate nests with care. It works for her clothier/tailor identity. Nightjars are for her later arc. Hard to notice, hidden in plain sight, dusk-associated, almost impossible to track until it makes itself known. :)

Psylia

Shrike! Pretty, precise, and horrifying. Shrikes are small predatory birds known for impaling prey. Not the largest predator in the room, but one that knows exactly how to pin something in place and leave it there. This fits Psylia's smaller height (for an Altmer) and her ruthless spymaster identity.

Vandoril

Grey Heron! Patient, still, careful, and always looking toward the larger waterline. I think it suits him: someone with a broader political vision, someone trying to act carefully in a corrupted world.

Alcanaro

Peacock. Proud, beautiful, status-conscious, loud in presence even when silent. Anyone that knows him knows how arrogant he is and about his inherent superiority complex.

Calithil

Black-Crowned Night Heron! Night herons have that patient, still, predatory quality — elegant but not flashy, quiet until they strike. I think it fits both his public and private face. He's not a hawk tearing something apart in daylight. He's a patient bird at the water’s edge, waiting for the exact moment to spear something.

Aluvus

Cormorant! They're a medium-larger coastal bird that I feel fit my Maormer cipher. :) They feel right for someone tied to secrets, depths, and survival in a place like Apocrypha.

looking over an old mod i was working on once upon a time in which i was trying to insert bravoyn storyline-related things into the game

(most of it had apparently just been changing eddie's dialogue to suit my characterisation of him better)

(and also editing his house to give early-game bravoyn somewhere to live)

deciding to continue working on said mod

making bravoyn's housepod in sadrith mora

the main thing is. the doors work. and everything is accessible.

Vivec fully clothed for a bit of variety ✨maybe for a formal event? Maybe for a night out on the town? Who knows!

The skirt part of the dress is based on a traditional New Mexican skirt my grandmother gave me :)

Lineart and the skirt below!

I’ve been enjoying linearts so much recently TuT
