Real Bosmer or the Oblivion ones? Reply to this Post Post Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Posts Report Post to a Moderator       Go to the top of this page
Yeah I was thinking again and I remembered that Beth haven't made the real Bosmer since MW. So I aks you guys, are we going to create the real Bosmer or the ones that are not so special but just small like Beth makes them now?

To me Bosmer look like:
Male:
- square chin
- high cheekbones
- big pointy ears
- pretty big "hawk" nose
Female:
- High, pronounced cheekbones
- big pointy ears
- small nose

for both I say we use the original eyes rather then the ones Beth used in OB. Because originally Bosmer had nearly black eyes. (see screenshot) I got them from Vanilla Oblivioon EyesAddon.



I know the Bosmer in that picture doesn't have the regular Bosmerlook, but that Bosmer is for personal use Tongue

Further I think we should keep the age slider pretty low adn only some really old Bosmeri. THe lore say they're young and playfull Tongue

So are we going to make the real Bosmer again? Like in the art etc? or do we stay with Beth's choice? I say we use the "real" ones, they're more unique and rule overall Tongue
yeah I keep diggin up lore e.g. Tongue

I think we should use the real bosmer for most of valenwood , but the oblivion one for the northern parts .

Yeah I think indeed that it will look better then just use only the black eyes.

you're right about it, Bosmer have squar-er chins, are short, and big pointy ears...
maybe also make their skin more peach/coppery? cause the paleness of that Bosmer scares me :D
(i know it was for your own use but I was just commenting)

I can imagine, big and long ears for funneling sound very effectively... and a very compact sturdy frame (part of the shortness and squarishness) as well as high cheekbones... and also high metabolism and lack of growth spurt since they are in a dense forest and sometimes arboreal... sorta like Pygmies, having adapted to a dense place or island dwarfism... and big irises in the eye to see more in the dark gloom of forests with light filtering down through the leaves...

While they did have pretty black eyes in MW, they still had a slight bit of white...

Definetly their old appearance.

Makes you wonder though; did their helms have open ear holes? :D

probably... :D , if they wore helms... most probably didn't, probably a cap of leather, maybe some metal or bone for more protection...

Yaaaaaay! I'm so glad you found this mod Morm, I just cant imagine a real Valenwood with chubby Wood elves the whole way through. Using this I think we could definitley start to show a bit of variety between the more feral and Imperialised Bosmer :bow:

Eh I must disagree with all of you, I never liked the wood-elves in Morrowind cause they all looked dum, like those ugly horns 1 of them had. But I loved the new wood-elves I just hav 1 suggestion make the wood elves more elvish looking like not that fat like in Oblivion and other the black eyes are scary... Check Check Cool
