Is it possible that we don't have a thread for this yet? Someone please speak up if we do and I missed it.

This thread is in the Spoilers area, so be advised that there will be spoilers.

So, screenshots from Skyrim. If yours are snapshots of your TV screen (like mine), don't be shy. I want to see them.

Here are some pictures I took of the spider scrolls (Dragonborn content) for mALX. They feature Jensa and Stenvar with some cute little pets. If you don't want to see spiders, don't click.


Flaming Spider in the hand, first person.

Flaming Spider and Jumping Spider (I think) dual wielding, first person.

Jensa dual wielding spiders.

Jensa and Stenvar with Flaming Spider on the ground (for scale).

Jensa and Stenvar with two spiders on the ground (because they're cute).

I absolutely Love these spiders! Are they part of a DLC or are they in the vanilla game?

Couldn't we have pictures of something less icky? Like a bunny, or some ducks?

mALX, those spideys are from the Dragonborn DLC. You can get them (and make them), In White Ridge Barrow. My current character was just there the night before Grits mentioned them on the What's New thread.

You know what they say: A spider in the hand is worth two in the bush, but a spider eating an enemy's face is absolutely priceless.

Here's a couple of scenery shots I took. I know I put one of these in my thread months ago.

Sun rising over the mountain

College of Winterhold

That shot of the College of Winterhold is spectacular!

I remember Sun Rising with that butterfly on the rock. Beautiful!

What a neat sky over Winterhold. I know it doesn't always snow there, but it sure seems like it!

Windhelm

That's the prettiest I've ever seen it look!

It looks like some left their lightsaber turned on in the Winterhold pic!

I always loved that butterfly pic. Windhelm looks very warm in inviting in that shot!



Moon over Dawnstar

Wolf

Tundra Sunset

That fire actually looks warm in the Windhelm picture! Nice.

I love that view of Whiterun and the Ritual stone, SubRosa. And I don’t remember her name, but I recognize that character’s awesome armor even from the back.




Here are some pictures of the gro-Bulsakh family in their new digs.

Big D and little Sophie.

On the side porch with the missus. Erik's got his back.

Moon over Dawnstar is stunning! I love that wolf - it doesn't seem to be attacking her, have you brought your friendly animals to Skyrim? Also, the girl is beautiful, she has to be modded - would love to know what mods you used to achieve that beauty!

Sophie is stocking up on carbs with that bread. I guess she wants to make sure she has plenty of energy to hack away at things with that sword!




I did bring my friendly animals mod to Skyrim. You can get it here. It does not effect animals added by the dlcs though.


!!!Some of these links are not work safe or kid safe!!!
I have spent a lot of time tweaking my appearance mod loadout for women (and for men too) So far what I am using is this, installed in this order (because some things overwrite parts of others):
Dimonized UNP Base Body (but I deleted the two female body .nif files)
Seamless UNP and Coverwomen #4
Sub Surface Full Body Map for Coverwomen and UNP UNPB bodies
Fitness Body (UNP Fitness Main Body - with optional Lesser Abs)
Women of Skyrim (with optional smooth faces for elves)
Detailed Lips
Numenume Female Brows

I do not use any mods that convert the regular armor or clothes to the UNP body. By deleting the two body nif files, I essentially have the same body shape as the vanilla body, but get the higher res hands, feet, and body textures. What I noticed with UNP is that the body size slider is really just a boob size slider. That is all it changes. Really. So I whacked the two files and now the body slider works the same as in vanilla. I liked the UNP Slim Body too, but some of my characters are not supposed to be that little and skinny looking. Like Hrafn in the Wolf pic. She's a big ole' Nord chick, and needs to look the part. I also don't get the naked bush on all the women in the game either, as the lack of underwear is built into the two body.nif files. So I don't have to worry about adding in the underwear options (one of which CTD'd on me).


These affect both male and female characters. The install order does not matter:
Natural Eyes
Mystic Eyes
Superior Lore Friendly Hair Less Saturated
Eyebrows Match Hair


Finally, for Sausages alone I use this:
Better Males - Younger Faces Merged With Men By Geonox

Ralof is much happier with it.

Here are some pics of Mielikki's latest adventures in Solstheim.

Mielikki walks to the beat of a different drum

"You want how much money to hire more miners?"

A bad day to be Deathlord

The reverse angle - scary bear is scary

On the move in Vahlok's Tomb

You mean people actually take that over having a butler or a black market dealer? Doesn't seem logical to me, but I dunno whether it's Mielekki's character or just you metagaming.

I cannot think of a single character of mine who would want anything to do with a dremora, except of course to kill it. So for me the drum is the only option there.

Wow, this is great SubRosa! The only one of these I had so far was Dimonized UNP Base Body, I saw several I will want to download here, Thank you so much!

Ralof looks much better there!

I wondered what that was behind her in the screen, it is a drum? What does it do?

Its a spectral drum that you can summon. I think it does something with your stamina regen. One of those kind of powers that I never remember to use. That's why I cannot remember exactly what it does. It is one of the rewards in one of the Black Book quests in the Dragonborn dlc.

It makes a great nightlight in a dungeon, lol. I looked it up, you are right on the stamina regen. I like the look of it, it is kind of a unique summon.

Talk about feeling right at home!

Some really nice pixies here, people!

Crop circle?

Looks more like a fairy ring to me.

Yeah, that's a fairy ring, lol

Wow, never heard of that before. Now I feel silly.

What's a fairy ring? I know I can just Google this, but sometimes I like it when people tell me themselves.

It's what you get when someone pours a circle of washing up liquid on the ground.

Here's one I took a little while ago when Lildereth went to find Abiene (NPC) where she works in Whiterun. Lil was patient for a while while Abiene tried to heal this poor woman. Eventually she whispered, "You should try using a spell."

Both Lil and Abiene have very nice looking outfits.

Oh, Grits, Lil and Abiene look great in Skyrim! Very recognizable, but they are clearly taking advantage of what Skyrim offers for them. You've done such a nice job with both them and, as KC said, their outfits. The ranger version of Triss armor looks fabulous on Lil!

Hilarious story! I second Acadian. Both Lil and Abie are easily recognizable in their Sky incarnations. The Triss outfit looks perfect for Lil, and Abiene looks foxy in her fox wrap!

That Triss outfit gives Lil quite the lush little bottom, so it’s a favorite of those who walk behind her. She wears it a lot between Lakeshore and Whiterun where things are pretty predictable and safe. It’s neat how the color variations suit such different characters. Lil likes to disappear into the shadows in her green one, while D’Eon’s contrasting stripes make her stand out.


My crew’s Skyrim is still a cautious work in progress as we seek a richer world without making it an unplayable one. Here we have Jerric rooting through the scraggliest bushes in Skyrim while Darnand and Lil say WTF. Jerric has been known to go to great lengths for his friends, including putting down his sandwich long enough to demand mods that do not interest him, specifically. This one for example. He knows that Colder Ice and Moar Trollz are unlikely to coax any mystic elven archers from the warm south. So he got some extra butterflies.

(The Nord hastens to explain that no moths were captured in the pursuit of this small joy. Just the image. )

Grits, how well Jerric knows his elven mystic archers! Honestly, I can think of no better way to entice Buffy up to the tundra than with such beautiful butterflies!

Those bugs look gorgeous! Aravi's world might be getting them as well.

KC, I also thought of you right away. I have the low res version, and I bet the bugs would be stunning in Aravi's gorgeous world! That picture of yours with the mountain and the tiny orange butterfly on the rock in the sun is unforgettable.

Look carefully to the upper right. Lord Haaf-Mersey and Rayya the Over-killer slaughtered a bunch of witches in Hag's End. He went into the next room and found a lever to pull. This lever apparently closed a gate which impaled one of the witches (which had fallen on some stairs). When Haaf-Mersey had to pull the same lever several hours later, this witch was now stuck to the door which impaled it.

That's a really creepy picture.

Ewww, hang 'em high!

Oh my gosh. That is so very creepy.

Here’s a picture of Jerric, Darnand, and Lildereth on the way to an unusual party. They had to pass through a portal to get there. Darnand and Lil are telling him, “You got us into this…”

I'm not sure I know where they are in this one. PM me?

Done.

I did not show what the crew is seeing in that picture because some of the revelers were not wearing pants. Probably for the same reason that couriers sometimes ran around naked, but in this case it was appropriate!

Looks like they are off to party with Sanguine! Jerric does not look to enthusiastic about it. But Lil sure does think it is amusing!

Much as I love Jerric and Darnand, it is Lil that really steals the show for me in that fantastic screenshot! I love the way you've crafted her face in Skyrim, and her outfit is stunning!

Darnand looks like Kurt Cobain's older, wiser brother. At least in this pic.

I've just started a new game with an Imperial Legion Battlemage, just to tide me over before my new laptop arrives and I restart Skyrim on a gaming machine I can take with me to university. My character is Alissa Harcenius, and the background I've drawn up is her family has a long tradition of serving in the Legion; she's doing her bit for the Empire by fighting the Stormcloaks in the civil war, as seen here in this incredibly badass screenshot.

For the EMPIIIIIIIIIRE!!

That IS an incredibly badass screenshot. Holy smokes!

I’ve been playing Jensa on the PS3 lately while fiddling with mods on the laptop, but I do have one screenshot to offer. Here’s the Bannered Mare looking festive for the season. Yes, that is a box full of free cookies.


(The fine print, mods at work: Hulda's dress from Peasant Fashion, decorations by Saturalia - Christmas in Skyrim.)

Nice shot; the Bannered Mare is certainly looking very homely in that one. Makes me want to head there to warm up by the fire with a pitcher or two of mead

I´ll take a few if yer don´t mind!

Also like this one

Looks very nice, even lifelike.

-Nice ones, people

Holy Moses, how did you get that in the game?
