/tes/ - The Elder Scrolls Discussion

Pretty solid work, my man.

>Mostly what I want is some criticism of my Orc, I'm not worried about making it 100% lore consistent, but I want it to feel like it belongs within The Elder Scrolls 3 Morrowind.

The color's gonna be important for that, you gotta pick the right palette for the texture for it to mix. But as far as models go, my only problem with that head of yours is the lack of a head slope, Oblivion orcs had an exagerated head slope which made them look micro-cephalic and made their faces too YYYUUGE, so you'll have to find a sweet spot there. I think it's also important to lower and widen the mouth and make the chin and jaw more prominent, don't be afraid to exaggerate the bones on their face a bit, think of ape faces.

As far as details go -and assuming you're making more than one head- it'd be nice to see at least one fully-closed mouth with only the tusks protruding, you might also want to make the ears a bit more "namekian".

Here's some reference pictures for you to catch some ideas for how to better shape your Orcs, keep us updated on your work!.

the head slopes it just isn't as visible at that angle

I'm making 2 heads per race only, a male and a female.

I lowered the mouth a bit but I have no interest in going any lower.

Fixed the ears, moved the mouth up a bit more, polished it up a bit, made the jaw more prominent, made the teeth look better, fixed the nose.

I'm mostly satisfied with him at this point, I'm going to leave him for a bit and do the female Orc,

Hey anon, would you consider redoing the orcs for skyrim? That is, making them look less blizzard and more Tolkien.

Personally I think orcs should look rotten, deformed and corrupted

I did a quick over of the Female Orc replacer, I think this one needs a lot more worc

I've already made mental notes about the eye shape and the mouth, I know they are wrong but I just haven't bothered changing them, what I mostly did wrong was the brows though, they are all kinds of unintentionally hideous.

I had a go at the Mer male base in between being demotivated by my Orc female, I'm aiming for yet again a mixture of all the different TES titles, I'm not particularly fond of the Skyrim Dunmer since their features are way too strong and their jaws are a tad too wide, personally other than the ears I like this mer.

I thought the orc female was pretty fucking good, only those two minor details.

>I'm not particularly fond of the Skyrim Dunmer since their features are way too strong and their jaws are a tad too wide, personally other than the ears I like this mer.

Your Job on the dunmer face is pretty much spot on what the average dunmer should look like in my opinion.

>other than the ears I like this mer.

if you ask me, the ears should be a lot bigger, it gives them murch more personality.

I fixed the Orc but she could still be better, but I like her now. I improved the Dunmer and extended his ears a bit, but not too much, I want them to at least stay manageable, also the ears on the Dunmer you posted start really high so they look a lot bigger than they are.

Just polished up the Orc female a bit, snapshot at a better angle.
