so from first to last (from left to right) oh, and spoilers warning!
1.jhunal the black fabulously leaving the place. bard, covered in blood of his victims (or maybe in color of the red stone? hmmm) dissociate himself in two empty shells. lamae is a dead bird - innocent fragile beauty that died for nothing.
2. jhunal showing who he really is. from his golden mask grows seeds of fear and rot. eye means hermaeus everlasting presence, and my dovahkiin, ripped in two on the background is faceless, because there hundreds of other people oc’s out there, playing the same mod.
3. molag caught in something like a herbarium. he is still too big, too powerful and too “im the main force here” to be scared, but what he doesn’t know is that its not going to help him this time. he has some red ace in his pocket tho.
Some detail from a WIP of Indrila that I never finished. This was the last thing I did on Clip Studio! It’s actually been so long that my CSP license has since expired lol. I’m thinking about finishing this on Procreate.
This is the first time I’ve done fully-rendered art of these two, and I’m really proud of it. Here’s a tiny snippet from their story, The Book of Ysmir, which I’ve been working on for about two years. I’m finishing the whole fic before I publish. It’s been a labor of love and there’s still a long way to go, but it’s coming along!
The passage below takes place by the Crabber’s Shanty, which might be my favorite location in the game. Hope you like it ❤️
Onmund stared out at the glittering expanse. The row of jagged mountains dividing the horizon made him feel like he was standing inside the mouth of an old, dead god, gazing out at the forever-vastness of heaven—Mundus before Nirn, a black void studded with light, each pinpoint a gate to the plane beyond. He looked up, up, up, and still he saw nothing but layers upon layers of stars retreating into eternity. They reminded him, more than ever, that he was small. A man in a sea of constellations. A blink in time.

Finally finished!! I wasn’t able to stick to just 1 layer, but 4 isn’t half bad :) This was a lot of fun to work on, and I’m extremely happy with how it came out.
This OC doesn’t have a name or a background story, but maybe I’ll write about her someday!
(Done for Day #16 of @jetfuelchoi’sTES Fashiontober challenge. I was going to do #10 originally, but I wasn’t sure if tattoos counted as accessories lol)
Current WIP! This is my take on Vaermina. I’m going to paint over this and draw much neater spines, but I really liked how the flat black & white turned out :)
Treat yourself to a gorgeous commission for Christmas, or gift one to someone you love! And check out the rest of Learielle’s incredible character art, too!
OP, this is incredible! That muted red + cream is gorgeous, your lines are elegant, and that flower tattoo is particularly amazing!! Soft, balanced, and just an all around 10/10.

Here’s Celemir from my good friend @smeatactular’s incredible fic, Roamer Red! I can’t say enough good things about her writing. Here’s a little snippet:
He doesn’t know how much his life matters to him, having faced battle alone time and time again. A century long passed; he still hasn’t found a purpose for himself in that time. A mercenary who’s lost his way, as the others described him. A roaming knight. More of a vagrant, if you ask me, others said, thinking he couldn’t hear them with his back turned. It’s accurate, though. Maybe, that’s why he’s here on the fringes of the Empire and Tamriel, deep in this temple overlooking half-frozen, ancient seas. Maybe, none of this matters, not anymore.
There’s another phrase that could describe him now, one that speaks to the blood that finds his heart.
3/10: Edited the art to make it lighter. The contrast was better on my iPad lol
