hate to see him go love to watch him walk away. it's dram

It's him

Have another wip screenshot for always speaking true facts

The plans have changed, but only a little

Here's his new introduction, including Prisoner himself (aka the man who saved Cyrus from the only death he couldn't escape)

Since I can't show you my latest Elder Scrolls fan art yet (NDA 🤫), I'll show you my oldest: This drawing is older than I was when I made it...

Hopefully I'll cook something this month ✊

Thanks for the tag, @falmerbrook! The only decent? WIP I have for now is this WIP Underking re?design

Makes sense since I've been very, very stressed and very, very tired every day of the past week(s?). He understands me like no other.

That's it. Sorry. Won't tag anyone specifically. I do not have the processing power to remember who'd like to participate...

Never work in security when there's military action a few kilometres away.

...

Wait!

Just reminded myself about this abomination

I was going to show you this slight Joto redesign after I had done more work on the image, but it took so long that I decided to post it already rather than lose it forever in my drafts

I'll never justify Dram for what he did to this actual poor little meow meow 💔

Hope I'm not annoying you with all the asks but what's your favorite thing to draw for Dram? I've been trying to get his colors to work well in my style and I've loved having the struggle! -Mellowscrolls

Don't worry, it's impossible to annoy me by talking about him :D or anything tes-related, really

Since picking colors is always a hard battle for me (and I have great respect for anyone who can enjoy this process) I think I really like his shapes (as seen here ↓)

Especially his big big eyes on the in-game model

Here's an example of how I tried to transfer them and his upturned (CUTE) ears to my style

Of course I understand the appeal of characters who never show up without their masks, but, hey, sometimes I need to see him eat some nice sweet roll or get kissed on the cheek :^) and, besides, it was a concept for this doll! The head is 3D-printed

I hope the Tiber Wars community is proud of me

z... zurik.....

I don't think I'm going to do anything with any of these sketches (because I got a better composition idea for my goal), but maybe they're worth posting as-is

DRAM. IS SO CUTE I JUST PLAYED REDGUARD FOR THE FIRST TIME AND OMG

Yesss (I think he sometimes uses his weapons as little mirrors)

Retro post! Have some sketches of a dying OC around some pretty mer

Plus happy Endus and cursed chibi Tureynul to balance the sad vibes out

Aaand this thing vaguely resembling Araynys because I don't know where else to put it

Some outfits for the Cyrodilic Grand Visier 🤔

The bottom one has a very nice description btw

Finally, a WIP Whenever post

Guess who (ignore his moe face, it's unintentional) is posing in front of his own WIP for the introduction (yes, I'm this obsessed)

Tagging all the people who tagged me for this thing, even though I know most of them participated in it fairly recently. Why?

@weirdisme @babyblueetbaemonster @falmerbrook @lillxart

Because I just want you all to know that even though I couldn't respond right away, I appreciated you including me every single time. Those days were tough and being reminded that people like you still care about my art immensely helped me get through them. 🫶

What are some of your pastimes? Do you have any hobbies you still practice common from Morrowind?

While Dram is looking for secret passages, I'm looking for a better way to draw... Don't mind the constant changes in his outfit and my brushes

Just have one more "classic" post before I finish with my little rebranding

just wanted to apologise for you probably getting spammed by my notifications q.q couldnt help myself, i heart what i like, and damn do i like your art (thats not a question), good day/night! :) (and sorry again heh..)

DO NOT apologise for this, I always appreciate being spammed with likes. It means a lot since I'm very self-conscious and has considered deleting at least half of what you can see on this blog at some point.

If you like something I post, never worry about it.

Good day/night! And thank you for making me feel worthy!

And then this scene happens

We'll discuss my brief disappearance later, for now have this holiday-themed mini comic for the sake of mood

Is there a fanfiction of your Dunmer oc that I can read? Or is it just the comic entries that are spaced apart on your page?

Cryinggggggg and kicking my legs in the air

It's such a flattering question, honestly :"" I am very happy that my art has caught your attention in this way!!!

Now I'll try to pull myself together and give you the proper answer:

... So, I'm very insecure with writing for some reason (never know where to finish) and because of that the entire story of this OC is just some ideas in my head I usually share in DMs with anyone who's interested. If you want, I'll gladly tell everything you wish to know in this way. Or I'll just start posting about her on this blog if I stop being so socially scared... Or do some big epic illustrations for these texts (both of which is kind of unlikely 😭)

But for now, have some very rough sketches and facts for the mood:

She had an Argonian bestie when she was a kid at Chorrol but sadly that girl's dad was VERY traumatised by decades spent as a House Dres slave. And Colo-Nordic society she was surrounded with wasn't much kinder to her race.

Fortunately, one day she stumbled upon another Dunmer who didn't deserve all that hatred. He was a friend of that amazing Emperor who had saved her city from the invaders when she was ten years old, so he couldn't be bad like those violent Dunmer who ruined their race's reputation!

(also that dumbass made herself an ordinator scarf for the first date thinking it will make Dram nostalgic. It made him remember how those ordinators killed and almost tortured him 😭 (yeah, exactly in that order))

Some more random sketches

And bonus one with current Morag Tong grandmaster doing Dram's hair before sending him to execute his last(?) writ

I LOVE YOUR ARTSTYLE OMG...............................????!??!

THANK YOUU! This ask made me so happy that I couldn't answer it until I found something to offer in return

So

Here are some creatures I'd never show if it weren't for the motivation these words gave me

Including this very friendly shadowscale (he's smiling)

Plus this no less friendly apprentice and master necromancer duo.

I hope to tell you a bit more about this dunmer/breton guy on the left someday

Today is The Elder Scrolls Adventures: Redguard release day!

⠀⠀The game came with a Pocket Guide to the Empire that confirmed the most iconic elements of TES lore, as well as the only official comic book, the cover of which I decided to redraw with the first full-fledged dunmer of the series (sorry, dark elves from the previous games, you didn't have cool pet bugs and ash masks).

Special thanks to @mway1 for the flag

Got tagged by @weirdisme for Wip Wednesday just in time to show you baby Dram and Vivec from a piece I'm currently working on

Not tagging anyone today because I don't have much mutuals to pester (and should probably reconsider the way I manage my blog)

... Well, except for @falmerbrook because she seems like the type of person who secretly keeps their interesting unfinished art like a dragon keeps it's gold 👀

And @cerviero because above is true for her as well 🫵

@vrrl you too! 🫵🫵

I'm such a fat liar

(But, as always, no pressure of course)

Remember that time when Mannimarco called him Arnand the Fox? That's the best explanation I have for now

And I had to get it out of my head as quick as possible

First rule of being a ghost: don't mess with the mages

I'm not very fond of undead, but these two are an exception

When the news of Empire's defeat on Stros M'Kai reach the Imperial City he doesn't want to be there

Using the first free day of a month to show you my take on Dram's mentor

This is my first Morrowind fanart btw (2022)

Wait, no. One day I just spontaneously decided to sketch Yagrum Bagarn (circa 2017)

Character belongs to @inkagna (I believe you have an art blog here, but I lost it's username 😭 So sorry!)

Happy Daggerfall release anniversary!

I love it, but I'm glad the orcs stopped throwing children into the deepest dungeon pits in later games.

Finally, a follow-up

The frames don't fit the text, because she was actually singing this nursery rhyme (volume warning, the sound starts abruptly). It just fits her original voice acting so well.

Unfinished Friday LET'S GOOO

Thanks for the tag, @falmerbrook!! Go check her post out as well btw, it's very cool

★ ★ ★

Boy do I have something to show this time...

Let's start with the askblog answer I'm currently aiming to finish:

And here's some spoilers of drawings for the second answer which may or may not see the light of day: (that's graphic tablet drawings btw!!)

Same thing, farther down this line:

Bonuses!

My unfinished polaroid

And whatever this is

Bye 👋

Oh no no wait

Gotta tag my dear friends @rzpotato-blog, @unknownhomosapien and @smkndfbb

Sorry if you already participated, I'm too busy to check Tumblr this days... But you can use this post as an excuse to show more of your wips :D

If you want to, that is. Anyways, have a good day!

Chibi Dram for everyone who missed us
