About this blog

With the hindsight of playing the Mass Effect series and The Witcher 3, this time round coming back to Skyrim there was just something lacking - the absence of any romantic content whatsoever with characters you can potentially spend much longer with than in the other titles.  

 

Fortunately I already had a knowledge of modding, it was just a matter of applying it to a more creative purpose.  I decided to set up a virtual photo studio. 

 

My Skyrim character's downtime consists of equal measures Hugh Hefner and Austin Powers.  Nothing like a few candid photos to release the tension.

 

These are the ladies of Skyrim, and some of the mods that helped bring them to you.

Jordis Sword Maiden & Nimue, Sparring After Dark; Pictorial Slideshow

I've been experimenting with using slideshows as a way to conveniently package larger pictorials for a while now; it wasn't until I was looking at an action-oriented set I'd done that 1 variable could make a lot of difference - the length of the slides themselves.  Thinking about it, giving all my pics an even 5 seconds failed to do justice to the ones I really wanted to stand out; some work better as setting the stage with a few quick shots before the one you want the viewer's attention to real

Return to Skyrim - Old Flames and Fresh Video

So I got a 2nd screen set up mainly to monitor my stream if I'm on Twitch or whatever.    The hedonist in me realized being able to see all the photos I'd taken of models during a photo shoot on another monitor, while still in the game, could definitely be a plus.  It's added a stronger connection between photos I think. I kind of want these to be more than just static images, which is why pose & shot choice, and making sure the model looks like she's actually enjoying the exp

Girls Next Door of Skyrim - Vivienne Onis

One of the essential mods in my collection would have to be Fair Skin Complexion from Nexus Mods   https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/798   Not only does it handle the skin textures of my models' bodies, it actually applies a new but subtle makeover to the faces of most females in the vanilla game.  This is great because with the majority of downloadable followers you know what you're getting; finding new potential photo shoot subjects basically at random as

Skyrim Pictorial - Ysolde, Girl Next Door

This is Ysolde from Whiterun.    To many players she would have just been another passing face like most NPCs in Skyrim, with no interaction other than a few lines of dialog.  With the right mods however, she and many other NPCs can be converted into fully functional followers.   Amazing Follower Tweaks (AFT) is the main mod behind this photo shoot as it has the spell that made it possible to recruit Ysolde; it also offers the inventory management system that allows me to equ

Girls of Skyrim 2.0 - Lydia, Hearts of Light and Shadow (Photo Mode Mod Demo)

Until today what I've been referring to in this blog as "photography" would more accurately be referred to as "POV Camera" similar to what you can see in many adult videos.    Real photographers don't have to take their camera intimately close to shoot intimate photos; this was just something I accepted I had to do because this was the only achievable modding solution I could access.  Using free camera without the ability to just zoom in/out was just something I put up with.    

From Head to Toe - Useful Hints for Virtual Photography

Through modding, the aesthetics of my followers - both clad in armor for the battlefield, and during life's more intimate moments - have much improved.  Being able to fine tune an aspect of a character to your liking, appreciate it; and then after a while think to yourself "this is great but it could be better" is a great experience.   You only have to look at my earlier blog entries compared to my latest ones to see how my models have evolved over time.   Two elements I've only recent
