Yo, The Elder Scrolls lore has me in a chokehold rn??? So, have this Vivec!!!

If you like reading about the elven gods, Vivec’s sermons are insane? The depth of TES lore blows me away every single time, man.

Also, shoutout to fan author @thana-topsy for not only getting me thoroughly obsessed with Vivec AND Teldryn — but for also writing one of the most beautiful TES fan-works I’ve had the pleasure of reading. <3

THEM. THESE FUCKERS. THESE MOTHERFUCKERS

okay so these guys were EXHAUSTING to make. Vivec was relatively easy to make, maybe because I based him more on the original Morrowind model, but Almalexia was harder. it was mostly her crown thing that gave me trouble, and I was just. dead at that point, so I just give it just enough detail to not look like a blob.

BUT SOTHA SIL. SOTHA SIL WAS A PAIN. First, I couldn’t decide what to do with his eyes, cuz I wanted to give them a sort of half lidded look, but I didn’t know how, so I settled with eye shadow. mouth was easy, though the age lines were annoying to choose a place for.

and then the helmet. I hate that helmet. I hate it so much. I like how it came out, don’t get me wrong. but making it was awful. and for some reason I wanted to give it a bit more detail to look more Dwemer-ish. so that was fun.

overall, I love how they all came out. but good god was it a pain. and it was all for a joke.
