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.

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

Serana: Cold Hands, Warm Heart

"You know, Dragonborn, the fact I had the Elder Scroll wasn't the only reason I came to Fort Dawnguard.    I came looking for you specifically; even though I'm a vampire I have needs other than blood.   Now that we have time, I wanted to show you how much I appreciate you releasing me from that crypt..."   Serana -Cold Hands Warm Heart.mp4

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

Quest Stage One: Get a Photo Studio

I basically look at any of the screenshots taken before I downloaded the Easy Photo Studio mod I use in my game, as being dead to me.  They just look wrong.  This isn't saying that I exclusively like to take photos in the studio; it's because it helped me fix a specific visual issue that had been bothering me.   https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/84524   My problem was that no matter where I had been taking screenshots of my followers before in the game, ther

Pictorial - Astrid: Smiling Assassin

Astrid, leader of Skyrim's Dark Brotherhood.  She was a character that I'd always found interesting in previous playthroughs, but I'd never had a way to interact with her beyond the limited conversation choices you have during the vanilla questline.   That was before I installed the Amazing Follower Tweaks mod and gained the ability to easily recruit her as a follower.  This pictorial is the result, taken in the photo studio I use thanks to the Easy Photo Studio mod.

Mods Behind the Scenes - Iona: The Glow Up

I decided to alternate my blog entries between pictorials and more informational pieces.   This is what Iona looked like before I'd used any mods, from the Skyrim Wiki:         FAIR SKIN COMPLEXION   Now, thanks to a single mod she's ready for her close-up.  The mod I use for my pics is called Fair Skin Complexion, and as well as providing improved skin textures for CBBE and 3BBB bodies, it gives you the option of changing the face makeup of ne

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

Girls of Skyrim 2.0 Pictorial - Serana

This is Serana, fourth member of the hit squad I've put together during my time in Skyrim.  The idea for this series of pictorials was to show what each follower looks like both in battle while wearing their armour, and during more relaxed times when you can see what's hiding behind it.
