Dram and his simulacrum by Gray Hamster! (Instagram, VK)

Actually, there's two of them, because I found someone who's as crazy about him as I am 💚 life is good

This is my first Morrowind fanart btw (2022)

Wait, no. One day I just spontaneously decided to sketch Yagrum Bagarn (circa 2017)

2 of 7. Dagoth Tureynul

Lord of Tureynulal, called "Hearthrum Drinker", "Breviloquent Taskmaster", and "Gold Skinner's Curate". Scholar and academic, Tureynul presided over dwemer athenaeum with only Endus as equal. Well versed in aurals, recreation of his symphonies by our musicians has melted base iron and warped solid trickster's blood. While tonal magic is not a traditional art of House Dagoth, Tureynul's compositions are undeniably superior to those of his peers, and his mastery is as elusive as it is difficult to earn his attention. Each of his six fingers covered in the own blood from playing and each beads of his jevelry has own meaning in compostion.

Tureynul Araynys

Character belongs to @inkagna (I believe you have an art blog here, but I lost it's username 😭 So sorry!)

1 of 7. Dagoth Araynys

Dirt Regent of Mamaea, called "Evermin" and "Keeper of the Photostatic Numen". Appointed entrant of Vivec by the will of the Sharmat. Chief artist of the Sixth House, memory was his chisel. Turning thought to stone, he created the so called ash statues and propagated them throughout Vvardenfell. Immune to the concept of distance and length, he carved as far as Cyrodiil without impediment. From his etchings we learn the mighty lessons of multiplication and patience needed for awakening dreams.

Happy Daggerfall release anniversary!

I love it, but I'm glad the orcs stopped throwing children into the deepest dungeon pits in later games.

Pictured: Tom Jones, as seen in The Elder Scrolls Adventures: Redguard. Although Tom Jones cannot be encountered under normal gameplay conditions, his model is in the game files. Its creation was inspired by Bethesda listening to a Tom Jones CD to stay awake while making the game.

@ijiwaruuma I just..uh I.. well hm

Finally, a follow-up

The frames don't fit the text, because she was actually singing this nursery rhyme (volume warning, the sound starts abruptly). It just fits her original voice acting so well.

WIP WHENEVER

Have a bunch of sketches. Tagged by @ijiwaruuma

Dagoth brothers (Vemyn, Araynys, Tureynul, Odros with and without veil). Also inspired by @ijiwaruuma s fantastic designs c:

My rp oc Synhyn, Sixth House's warrior. Made for collab, thats why she a bit...naked :DDD

Part of collab with @smkndfbb

Not tagging cus have no idea who i can tag (have not so much people for that)

@ijiwaruuma "Well, I have had two hundred years' more practice!" 

@ijiwaruuma doveli dovol'ni A quick sketch, in the new wave of Morrowind fixation egh Raftal lil baby just fo ya

Got inspired by @ancientsongs 's recent art to do some TESA: Redguard stuff/sketches again, so did my favourite apprentice/master duo I tried colouring it but hated it so basic greyscale sketch for all ALSO I still can't decide on a staff design for Zurin so I just went with staff of magnus for ✨symbolism✨ and called it a night

Unfinished Friday LET'S GOOO

Thanks for the tag, @falmerbrook!! Go check her post out as well btw, it's very cool

★ ★ ★

Boy do I have something to show this time...

Let's start with the askblog answer I'm currently aiming to finish:

And here's some spoilers of drawings for the second answer which may or may not see the light of day: (that's graphic tablet drawings btw!!)

Same thing, farther down this line:

Bonuses!

My unfinished polaroid

And whatever this is

Bye 👋

Oh no no wait

Gotta tag my dear friends @rzpotato-blog, @unknownhomosapien and @smkndfbb

Sorry if you already participated, I'm too busy to check Tumblr this days... But you can use this post as an excuse to show more of your wips :D

If you want to, that is. Anyways, have a good day!

Chibi Dram for everyone who missed us

And again, the original text was a little better. Sorry!

Yep, I've only just noticed that dark pixels on his model's forehead look like some kind of scar...

Help me, tumblr! Gotta figure out how he'll look in my future fan art

Yay! I have been accepted into that TES Ask Blog! Headcanons for everyone!

(So sorry for wacky text formatting, I scrupulously adjusted the speechbubbles for it in another language and doing it again is too much work for my lazy ass)

A lesson from a genius tactician on how to regain your personal space (with @rzpotato-blog 's Estani)

Anyway, have another "unlore" argonian mechanic who's surrounded by dwemer scrap metal and is happy about it (I think I drew it two years ago)

Stumbled across this sketch and remembered another fact about that gal

She knew nothing about the Dunmer except what was in their boastful books, so she really liked them.

That's what getting dumped in some ruins by some smugglers who've been using you as a living fishing rod (but for treasure) does to an Argonian. (Her left big horn is broken)

sneaking this here to surprise my favourite mutual (who already knew I was drawing this)

once again stealing @ijiwaruuma 's OC's but this time their Morag Tong grandmaster tesa: redguard OC because they're cool as hell ✨✨

Sketch added because why not

Practiced drawing Endus because if stars are kind you'll be seeing him much more often (I want to take part in a TES ask blog with him)

Control freak Araynys and Gilvoth who is too impatient to pose for a portrait again

Yea, i decided to picture Araynys more feminine this time. Don't ask why, I don't know...

This is the first drawing of Rene, from before she was even a TESA: Redguard OC.

And here's some more recent sketches of her (this is just two unrelated pictures, not a comic)

Yeah, TES is so friendly to OC x canon ships because your character is literally a part of the story and yet I chose the ONLY (?) game where it isn't 🤪

Anyway, the more you scroll down - the worse

(Every sketch has "massive" context btw, but I'm not a ficwriter, sadly)

(Especially this, so I'll try my best)

Here we see a war criminal, his adoring fan (who has almost no idea about any of his crimes) and her friend who planned to make him pay for everything together...

I warned you!

We're descending into hell %D

I finally decided on her looks. Maybe.

Anyway, meet Dram 's #1 simp

I think it would be so beautiful if at least some dunmer could have this skintone. Let dark elves be dark

(This is a photo of Grace Jones by Jean-Paul Gaude) although it's obviously Mephala

... And now I'm almost disappointed that he wasn't a saxhleel in the canon

I don't know, it just seems so cool

↑ Bonus khajiit version because I love beastfolk of Tamriel

Shakes potion / shakes potion dramatically

A gif inspired by their in-game animations

😭

(But Dram's style really had nothing to do with it)

Cannon interaction: on recent discussions of Dram's interesting fashion choices and a particular voice line from Redguard in my head

But nah fr why is he wearing such saturated colours 😭

and the moment of course
