    Outstanding set! Lovely graphics. I found the mushroom person quite intriguing.

      Thanks! That mushroom people mod is one of the newer additions to the load order that I honestly couldn't see myself ever going without.

    Very gorgeous images with a watercolor feel to many. Absolutely love that main shot with it's addition of Chinese calligraphy. Reminds me of an art exhibit of a master Chinese artist (d'oh, I can't remember his name!!) at our museum years and years ago - the paintings in traditional Chinese style were very beautiful and moving. So yeah, your image brought back that lovely feeling.

      Thanks Judy! Japanese kanji characters, actually- might not be totally authentic to the calligraphic script used in the Nanga style I'm referencing, but it was the easiest way to include the dumb little pun I hid in there. I also very much dig classical Chinese ink prints, but there's something about the Japanese Nanga artists who took those tropes and turned them up to eleven, so to speak, that appeals to me even more. Softer brush-work, more muted palettes, smaller human figures, more abstract natural shapes, vaguer poetry- I love that sh!t.

    You already know how I admire both your style and sense of art as well as the very image motifs themselves, so I won't rant about it in yet another post. What I want to say though, is that I'm very glad to see you pay a few visits to Skyrim still. I know it's SE and I'm over at the old bottle-neck LE version, but Skyrim will always be my favorite game to spend hours upon hours within. The fact I have more than 300 characters, yet nearly any progress in most of the questlines should tell the why of it...

    I just can't seem to get myself into FO4 for this very same reason (I'd say I play it occasionally only because you brought the theme event there). Fantasy - as medieval fantasy fiction has it - feels like home to me, much more than the real world I'm almost afraid to say, but I believe it gets to that at some point when being diagnosed with social phobia for nearly twenty years now. Luckily there are people kind enough to cheer for me here and of course, I have my own two gifts - my son and my daughter.

    Images are all gorgeous of course. I wish I could tell you more than that, because I know you like a deeper analysis, but I'm a simple - yet aesthetic - man, so beauty is really enough for me. I also picked two shots from your set that felt mostly like gifts to me and while doing so, I noticed you had so many images included here that would suit perfectly for upcoming themes, so keep them close and at hand...

    Probably said before that I really like the big landscapes towering over the people, but here even the mighty dragon is dwarfed by nature. Very Turneresque in this one.

    One of my previous characters was named Turner Constable.

      Thanks! Fallout's great for details, Skyrim's where it's at for big imposing landscapes. Turner Constable- that's fantastic.

      Many thank- I couldn't have done half of these without your Forest Borealis fixes, so extra appreciation for that!
