Returning with a birthday gift for @sherron-makaron007 with her J'Zargo design

and some personal news under the cut

Sorry for being inactive, it will happen again 😔

Aside from the geopolitical situation affecting my job (among other things), I have decided to take some visual development courses to hopefully improve my art. The summer is going to be very busy.

But even if I don't have enough energy or time to interact, it doesn't mean I forgot about you all 🫶🫶

Thanks and a very good day to everyone who will read it!

"On the threads of the Many Paths we wear different faces..." Mine and @roumanelli versions of Zurin Arctus aka Arnand the Fox =3

In other words: Dram would rather talk about himself than Nahfahlaar (or almost anyone else in the world)

hate to see him go love to watch him walk away. it's dram

It's him

Have another wip screenshot for always speaking true facts

The plans have changed, but only a little

Here's his new introduction, including Prisoner himself (aka the man who saved Cyrus from the only death he couldn't escape)

Since I can't show you my latest Elder Scrolls fan art yet (NDA 🤫), I'll show you my oldest: This drawing is older than I was when I made it...

Hopefully I'll cook something this month ✊

Some misfits fighting some necromancers for various reasons that brought them together

(This is a pack of illustrations for one of the RPs I had on a TES3MP server)

Thanks for the tag, @falmerbrook! The only decent? WIP I have for now is this WIP Underking re?design

Makes sense since I've been very, very stressed and very, very tired every day of the past week(s?). He understands me like no other.

That's it. Sorry. Won't tag anyone specifically. I do not have the processing power to remember who'd like to participate...

Never work in security when there's military action a few kilometres away.

...

Wait!

Just reminded myself about this abomination

Dreamland - Sotha Sil animation

I was going to show you this slight Joto redesign after I had done more work on the image, but it took so long that I decided to post it already rather than lose it forever in my drafts

I'll never justify Dram for what he did to this actual poor little meow meow 💔

Hope I'm not annoying you with all the asks but what's your favorite thing to draw for Dram? I've been trying to get his colors to work well in my style and I've loved having the struggle! -Mellowscrolls

Don't worry, it's impossible to annoy me by talking about him :D or anything tes-related, really

Since picking colors is always a hard battle for me (and I have great respect for anyone who can enjoy this process) I think I really like his shapes (as seen here ↓)

Especially his big big eyes on the in-game model

Here's an example of how I tried to transfer them and his upturned (CUTE) ears to my style

Of course I understand the appeal of characters who never show up without their masks, but, hey, sometimes I need to see him eat some nice sweet roll or get kissed on the cheek :^) and, besides, it was a concept for this doll! The head is 3D-printed

I hope the Tiber Wars community is proud of me

Horrible, I came back here after neglecting my Tumblr for a very long time to post my OCs that I made into TES OCs and gave lore to.

Rutt was born in Windhelm to a Nord father and an Imperial mother. She’s a rather rare occurrence of a child being the same race as their father over their mother. She has two older Imperial siblings - an (currently unnamed) older brother who’s a necromancer after dropping out of the College of Winterhold and an (currently unnamed) older sister who’s a former witch and current hagraven. Most of her youth was spent fighting with racist Nords up until she met a young Dunmer alchemist named Irarver Sadoia, whom she fell in love with. Rutt wooed him by offering to go out of the city to collect ingredients for him personally. Sadly, whatever relationship the two would have was short lived when Rutt came back to the city to deliver her ingredients to find Irarver had been killed by an aggressively racist Nord. Rutt was basically driven mad at that point, since Irarver was the only person in the city she had a strong connection to. She disregarded her Nord heritage and abandoned the Nines after this point, delving more into Dunmeri culture as well as beginning to worship the Reclamations. Rutt ran from Windhelm after ‘dealing with’ the Nord that killed Irarver and became a barbarian mercenary who knows a bit about alchemy - at least until she met Helnoore.

Helnoore was born in Skywatch on the Summerset Isles, where she was middle child of her family. Her family didn’t even think she was worth grooming to be a Thalmor soldier and were planning to marry her off to some other aristocrat. Helnoore wouldn’t stand for this, being rebellious and chaotic. She falsified documents that her family was against the Thalmor and took passage off the Isles to Elsweyr where she was helped up to Cyrodiil by her uncle, Angamar. Helnoore after that point took an interest in her innate magic abilities and join the Mages Guild, but she would not last long as Helnoore had a penchant illegal magic (mainly levitation magic). She decided to also get some training in the blade, mostly daggers since she got her training from her uncle who was surprisingly well versed using smaller blades. Helnoore took to the roads as a spellsword, with some sociopathic tendencies. She met Rutt after pretending to be a Thalmor Soldier and killing the entire squadron she was with for a laugh.

Talaes Buckingor is a young and naive Breton from Bruma who is an only child to a Breton mother and Bosmer father. Talaes remembers her childhood as a seemingly non noteworthy, the young half breed had a little bit of hard time with some locals because of accusations at her Bosmer father but other than that the young girl had little problems. Her father wanted his daughter to have some connection to her heritage so he taught her to hunt, specifically with a bow. As grew up, Talaes desired to see the world outside of Bruma but it wouldn’t be until she reached her late teens to leave on her own. She decided to travel up towards Skyrim where Rutt and Helnoore saved her from bandits.

Do’shra was born on the border of Elsweyr and Cyrodiil, her mother shortly dying after her birth. Do’shra was immediately taken in by the family caravan of Khajiits her mother was a hired warrior for hence her Khajiiti name and her tendency to use the Khajiiti language and mannerisms. She would grow up among the caravan as the family traveled from a few different provinces to sell their wares. As she aged, she immediately knew she was different from her Khajiiti parents and siblings even if they treated her much like a Khajiiti. As she got older her family confessed about what happened to her mother though it made her respect her adoptive family more. She decided she would take on the role her mother had in the caravan, deciding to live up to her name. In spite of this, when she got older her caravan family urged her to rediscover her Orsimer heritage and let her leave the caravan for a while. Do’shra discovered she did not have much in common with other Orcs and instead became a knight instead who often raided bandit dens for nearby cities. She would inevitably meet up with Rutt, Helnoore, and Talaes when the three and her incidentally decided to clear out the same necromancer den.

Some Dunmer men including Irarver Sadoia from Rutt's backstory, Avisi Indarys (the latest on Cheydinhal's Indarys family at least on my own canon and of course a Knight of the Thorns (but he also calls himself a 'Mageknight of the Thorns' like an idiot), and Dram but this is not /the/ Dram from Redguard but rather I found some out of game text (though it's also probably not canon but I like the idea of it) that the Morag Tong has clones of him and the one in the poc is my take on a 4th Era simulacrum of him (I keep accidental making his belt black instead of brown unintentionally 😭)

z... zurik.....

I don't think I'm going to do anything with any of these sketches (because I got a better composition idea for my goal), but maybe they're worth posting as-is

It's always a little awkward when people see my obsession with TES and then assume that I'm going to like whatever fantasy franchise they recommend to me just as much.

Because, you know, my favorite elements of TES are the ones it DOESN'T have in common with most other media products in the genre.

6 of 7. Dagoth Gilvoth

Dagoth Gilvoth - Vassal of Dagoth Ur, called "Scorial Claviger". Bestial in disposition, Gilvoth is quick tempered and depraved. Holding a collection of the still beating hearts of his enemies, he bound their spirits to the service of the Sixth House and presided over all revenants indentured to the Sixth House as wraith liege. inspired by @ijiwaruuma ash vampires design and this topic in particular Gilvoth Uthol Vemyn Tureynul Araynys Odros

may i join you in dram land

WAHAHAHA WELCOME WELCOME. Have our national meme

DRAM. IS SO CUTE I JUST PLAYED REDGUARD FOR THE FIRST TIME AND OMG

Yesss (I think he sometimes uses his weapons as little mirrors)

Retro post! Have some sketches of a dying OC around some pretty mer

Plus happy Endus and cursed chibi Tureynul to balance the sad vibes out

Aaand this thing vaguely resembling Araynys because I don't know where else to put it

OC mega dump 👍

Not posted Estani (Tiber wars era) in a while, although I'm regularly yapping about her. So have some sketches I've done in the past while. + oc sheet I got tagged in at the end because might as well put it in the same post

Girls eyesight isn't great. Anyone else keep forgetting glasses exist in TES? (Redguard & ESO)

Someone's not adjusted to the day/night cycle of Tamriel after being stuck in the void for a while

Bonus mum of twins content

She didn't take it well at first. Also, I realise I accidentally gave her the dead anime mum hairstyle so just ignore that plz I just like the style.

Bonus baby Pelagius (I can't draw babies well so just trust me bro)

(In case anyone's curious) I use this TESA: Redguard concept art a lot for period correct armour, I haven't figured out what half of the scribbles on the robes and sash are yet, so don't bully me too hard 😔

For anyone who got this far, I got tagged so have this

She's not specially from a game but a period of lore so age is a tricky one. Also, the family she was born into not her priority (she ran away) but her kids are very much her priority hence the dot above.

Some outfits for the Cyrodilic Grand Visier 🤔

The bottom one has a very nice description btw

I don't think anyone told him while Richton was still alive...

See what a smuggler has to say:

Also remember how many imperial soldiers weren't properly buried (like those poor guys in local dwemer ruins) → got caught in N'Gasta's soul snare as well. Oh no I don't think anyone in the capital would approve of that. Richton is such a scumbag when you think about it...

Ah yes, work with the necromancer whose sugar daddy is Mannimarco. Did/would Zurin approve? Who knows, that’s if anyone even told him. Depends on when his beef with Mannimarco started I guess

Poor Attrebus 😔

Links for navigation / tags for filtering!

Underground Gallery — where I keep my art

Midday Observatory — where I show other's art

Thought Log — where I scream at the void

Yes, very pretentious

Finally, a WIP Whenever post

Guess who (ignore his moe face, it's unintentional) is posing in front of his own WIP for the introduction (yes, I'm this obsessed)

Tagging all the people who tagged me for this thing, even though I know most of them participated in it fairly recently. Why?

@weirdisme @babyblueetbaemonster @falmerbrook @lillxart

Because I just want you all to know that even though I couldn't respond right away, I appreciated you including me every single time. Those days were tough and being reminded that people like you still care about my art immensely helped me get through them. 🫶

A chase down that resulted in an almost romantic trip out in a stolen boat.

Happy Valentine’s Day 👋

Featuring @ijiwaruuma ‘s OC Rene and the oh so terrifying Dram

What are some of your pastimes? Do you have any hobbies you still practice common from Morrowind?

While Dram is looking for secret passages, I'm looking for a better way to draw... Don't mind the constant changes in his outfit and my brushes

Just have one more "classic" post before I finish with my little rebranding

5 of 7. Dagoth Uthol

Dagoth Uthol - The Ruler of Kogoruhn, called "Aphotic Contriver" and "Ash Marshal". Martial arts, tactics, and strategy are his primary focus. Teacher of venom blooded lessons, he made diamoncut warriors forged for conquest, but not changing, only improving their form and skills. Impeccable in conduct and mindful of ceremony. His deeds prove that the Dunmer are perfect and do not need miracles to gain power, only conditions and the appropriate attitude. He was true heir of the House, but died early and as sign of respect, was trusted to rule Kogoruhn as it supposed to be in the beginning. inspired by @ijiwaruuma ash vampires design and this topic in particular Uthol Vemyn Tureynul Araynys Odros

Have some Zurin doing mundane Zurin things ✨

Character design is (mostly) by me

But the art itself and all the magic is by my dearest friend on Bluesky
