About this image

My traditional take of my first Skyrim character when the game was first released (Well besides the few extra lil parts of his outfit of course. Those are just my own designs). Pronounced Gin-co. Gin like the drink and well yeah co like the abbreviation of corporation lol. Ginko is a Argonian Assassin with one purpose in life, extermination of the Dark Brotherhood. Being a ex-member of the guild born and raised Ginko developed this grudge after gaining the knowlage of the history of his family tree and how he unknowingly cut said tree down thanks to the Black Hand (Killed his own Family who were tagged for assassination not knowing of the connection of bloodline at the time as he was kept from information regarding his parents and his adoption into the Brotherhood)

Just a small timbit of info of the characters backstory though sadly in game the story wasnt nearly as amusing to me as the killing of the Dark Brotherhood was well pretty bloody lackluster. Im not much of a writter but by the time I had finished drawing this picture I had like half a phone books worth of backstory idea`s for the bugger heh. Well this was my traditional "Thank you" to the Elder Scrolls series and yes the Nexus site aswell (Been surfing this site as long as I have been playing the series of games so yeah a thanks is in order for both sides of the inspiration) . So thank you Nexus for giving me part of the inspiration I needed to draw this picture! Oh and for those wondering both were drawn with colored pencils and black ink (Both are seperate pieces I just stuck them together.)

    I drew up my character before the game came out too
    Awesome character, I like his story and I love your art style.
    Really good work on the face, I imagine argonian faces would be kind difficult if your inexperienced drawing a creature like that. But you seem very well experienced in such a thing

      It was a bit tricky as I couldn't come close to the actual scale pattern of their faces so I opted to do a more cartoonish take on the skin and color formations. Thank you so much for the comment and sorry for the late reply.
