Description
This started off as a doodle to keep myself sane while I was still writing my undergrad thesis. 'Course, then I got into it and put detail and yadda yadda yadda. Now I coloured it. Again, my Morrowind assassin, Eshara- not killing things this time, and instead just sittin' pretty on a rock. She's always smiling... Maybe because she's an Argonian, and her face is like that, or she's just that cheerful all the time. ...which is a bit of a creepy thought, considering her profession.Anyhow... Um. Well, I swiped 's style of mounting an image- the off-centered thing with the shadow. I always like how she does it, and thought I'd give it a whirl. (You should go look at her stuff. Goooooo ..... Looooooook .....
The grass is all actually a brush that I made for photoshop. *Katikut has some really nice ones she says you can use if you credit her, but I wanted to make my own... still have a ways to go on learning how to make 'em all nice, though.
Okay, I think I've prattled long enough. I've got another Argonian who'll be forthcoming- again, he started as a sanity doodle.
Morrowind (c) Bethesda Softworks
Eshara is my cute Argonian.
Oh, and I'm fairly certain that the head mesh and texture came from the Better Heads Argonians Playable Heads Pack by Motoki .

So peaceful yet I know that I shouldn't underestimate her.
Good Work!

Looks friendly... But I don't think I want to approach. God DAMN argonians for being so lovable and cuddly, and yet so bloody dangerous! They're almost like dragons! Dx

Who says that an assassin can't pend time meditating and relaxing? This is great.

Sure. I just skimmed through the thread and I certainly wouldn't mind if you had to alter colours/texture/etc. to more match. Or if I knew what you were aiming for I could try to alter it for you folks, myself.
Also: Painting Addon = Amazingly Awesome Idea! >^.-.^<
Can't wait to see it.

Well, its going to be a fair chunk of work for us to do all of this altering, theres alot of nice artists like yourself letting us use their work
So any help you wish to give would be greatly appreciated, I cant leave poor Ben doing all of those manipulations for canvas himself

A thought on that "always smiling" bit, I think that makes the pic all the better. Everyone loves a murderous sadist that finds humor and such a line of work.

Argonians are the best by far... Plus, they look reall sweet with black hoods in Oblivion.

Nice. Your carachter must be quite the assassin, as mine is in oblivion. For example, he has a sneak score so high that I can often do sneak attacks with my bow on the same carachter and they won't notice! Tis funny!

I don't think Eshara's sneak skill is quite that high, but it's gettin' there.
....how on earth do you not notice an arrow sticking out of you, anyhow?

Oh, I don't know. The AI in oblivion isn't very good if they don't see you! My dad was using ghostwalk after he had nearly killed all the enemies in the room, and one of the remaining ones said "Oh, must have been the wind!". And then he bumped into my dad and didn't notice! lol!

! Alas, most guards aren't known for their intelligence.
But still, that's pretty insane, there, mad stealthing skillz or no.

She's female- but being a lizard makes it a bit hard to tell.
But you're right, Argonians (what she is) do resemble your Saurian warriors, don't they? (That's what Slash is, right? ....I think his name's Slash...)

Heh, she does look really relaxed. Nice and peaceful... But she probably won't be so calm once she realizes that that grass is eating her tail.

Argonians. Are. Awesome. One of the best races in Elder Scrolls. And you draw yours really well, which I guess would come naturally to your talent in drawing dragons. I really like the pose here. And it come to show even brutal killers want peace and quiet now and then. xD

Thank you.
I actually had to spend a while practicing drawing Argonians- looked at the Morrowind ones )'cause I think they're overall a bit spiffier looking than the Oblivion ones- and because they're the ones I'm used to). ^.=.^
