    She looks fantastic with that red hair and the blue (or gray?) eyes , and that impressive facial and body paint. What a Lady. Only her hairstyle seems a bit too 'nice'.

    The High Captain just oozes Confidence. Great set
    You have many details which are cool, like the contrast of colours and light and also the sharpness of the Characters in comparison to the Depths of the environment

      Yeah, he really seems "quite at home" here, doesn't he? Having full control of the environment!

      I like details in the image which is why I seldom use too strong DoF effects, since it erases the background into nothingness. I prefer seeing parts of the surrounding, because it adds to the atmosphere and even helps in the case of visual storytelling. The many LUT's have been a great help too since they offer so many possibilities in contrast, colour palettes and saturation. I can't really see myself playing without them in Skyrim anymore, but I still have Fallout 4 for some further realism...

    Love the Dwemer ruins, although there's a few (the one in Markarth is #1 on the list) where I always get totally turned around and can't find my way out for quite a while. Lovely set of images, Rick.

      I like the feeling of getting lost in those dwindling dark halls, deep underground. Seems very appropriate for someone who lives "up above" with a clear sky as the roof. I've been in some caves when I was younger, and your orientation sense get a bit bugged out when all you can see is dark tunnels and dimly lit chambers. I suspect you need to be a Dwarf to manage it all...

      Thanks a lot, Cat!

    I love the colour of the light in these shots, it give the set a Moira type feel

      I've been a fan of the atmosphere inside the Dwemer ruins, ever since I played Vanilla. When I was able to switch to ENB's, these locations turned from interesting to mindblowing with their dark shadows and gloomy pale light. Now with the LUT's, I see them a third time with different perspective, because they can change so much depending on what LUT you're using. This set is with Mudpuppy, a LUT that's rather soft and kind to to the eyes without the intense contrast that often follows many other LUT's. I found it working out great for the Dwemer interiors, mainly because of that blue-green colour it provides...

      Thank you, my friend!

    Great portraits of your characters, Rick! I really like that profile shot of the high captain, it has such a kingly presence about it.

      So many dwarves at the moment...and yet I'm in the process of making brand new characters for some bodypaint showcasing! Lots of characters these days!

      I still have a bunch of the sturdy dwarves to show, but I might slow down the pace a bit. Some of the upcoming sets will have a bit of action though, since these shots were taken during my "quest for combats shots" for AJ's event.

      Thank you, Dylan!
