The movie Ironclad one of the inspirations for Skyrim?

Here is Vladimir Kulich, the voice actor for Ulific, in the movie Ironclad and darn if it doesn't look like the Skyrim art director didn't take a lot of inspiration from this movie. It really looks like the Templar's armor was the model for the  Dude Gaurd's  Dawngaurd's armor. And damn it, this is the death scene Ulfirc should have gotten in the Imperial Victory line for the Civil War.  Epic fight, not some cheesy four npcs have a sissy slap flight and then the PC gets the kill.
