Getting Closer
About this image
It takes me awhile to get a new character tweaked the way I want. Actually they never seem to become exactly as I want them, but getting 'close enough' is the goal.
This one is doing very very well for her first day. Outstandingly actually. She is using the Yokuda Battle cat & the Ranger's Fox because they are so colorful. Naturally she lives in one of Carah's caravans or cart. Next, she needs some more clothing.

She looks great! I like her cute face and the hairstyle!
The Better Gypsy race is really easy to work with & it is hard to go wrong. I am happy to have that hair style that came with the race. I really, really like it a lot.
She looks a lot like her Moonshadow counterpart but more exotic. Lets see if I can live without elf ears. I always play an elf & lately a gypsy type elf. Perhaps I will feel comfortable this way. If not, perhaps she will get a spell to add elf ears. ;-D
*me walks again into the shadows once he has dropped that bomb*
Cheers!
I am not sure that the elf ears would show through this great hair anyway. We will see how it works out. I was using a mod to add elf ears to Bretons from the start, & I seem to really be addicted to them. They happened to an Imperial Race character through the magic of the CS once. I might remember how to do it again, like a fairy godmother. My Moonshadow elf is already wearing Pym's hair & loving it. Naturally they are all on my personal characters only & not on any of my companion mods (who are all animals & have their own nice ears). ;-D
...but hey, Zella, shall I tell you a little secret?
...come a little closer!...
Would you have thought that my Alba actually is a Wood Elf!?
(I think only a handful of my Nexus-friends know this. - ...if they should remember.)
... -> Alba in March 2011
I (as the Nord that I am) never had a problem that she's an Elf - and from the beginning we had a harmonious relationship. Sure, Elves have elf ears, but I always was in the opinion that her ears look too big (maybe it's because she's a head shorter than me).
Later on she told me that she actually feels the same, so one day we decided to hide her ears under a wig.

If it is your character, you need to make it look the way that you enjoy it in your game.
Alba was always a beautiful character, but here ears should be what makes you happy in your game. I might like it better if she had the short pointed ears, but it is more important for the way her ears look to make you happy in your game. Fortunately, in Tamriel you can get magic spells to change your hair style & even your ears. ;-D
and some warm woolen socks would make sense...
I think she is the best you have done so far.
Practice may not make perfect, but it can certainly improve things. She looks a lot like my other characters, though that requires making some changes to the lovely starter face. Having such a lovely starting face helps a lot, & this is a beautifully done race that is going to look beautiful easily. She seems to have a lot of character in her face & look less like a beautiful doll & more like a beautiful person.
