race mod Races of Nature – A Custom Race Collection

[Wonders of Eros]

Sorry for the delays everyone. I'm doing my best to get a new Skyrim build going, but it's tough. I might just go back and work using my old build instead.

MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT

(posted 2025-05-30 / 30/05/25)

 

The mod is now back in active development and I'm working on new races. Stay tuned for more information.

 

Glad you're back!  I have to say, your models are GORGEOUS and SEXY!  You're really doing a terrific job!  Someday, I hope to be half as good as you...and I'm being serious about that!  I've set myself the ambitious goal to make all the humanoid creatures in Skyrim use the PC/NPC skeleton, and look sexy.  This would not only allow them to use PC/NPC items/clothing, but more importantly, their animations, especially sex animations! 😜  Thus any advice/suggestions, on how you make your races would be greatly appreciated!

 

My only real stylistic difference from you would be in the face, and this wouldn't be because of my own personal preferences, but a matter of necessity.  To put it bluntly, you need a human like mouth and teeth for a proper, deepthroated, blowjob.  If you've ever requested oral from an Argonian in game, you've likely noticed that not only did it not really work from a mechanical perspective, but it looks down right terrifying from a personal perspective.  Thus, while I'm not un-attracted by the native female beast races in the game (or yours here), I had to find mods that would give them more humanoid faces, while preserving as much of their bestial aspects as possible (which I think I did, the foreheads are still scaled/furred and more bestial - just need to extend that onto the cheeks as well.  I also left the guys alone, since I really do like the look).  I don't know how you make your races, but if, by any chance, you did the skull and ears first, and then the face second, I'd greatly appreciate versions of your current (or future) races with a more human face (but just for the ladies, I really do like the animal look, and would want to keep it for the men)!!!  Though, while I do kinda hope that you do end up doing all of the native animals of Skyrim (so that I could create a 'humanizing' spell that would convert wild animals into even 'wilder' animal girls  whenever I feel like it! 😜), I'm really hoping that you make a Minotauress at some point (and do the face last, so I can have a humanoid version)!  Nothing better than a well built woman who's also well stacked!

 

However, to be clear, I'm not demanding any of this from you!  If you can do everything except the eyes, nose, mouth and chin a new race first, save, and then the face, so that there's a humanoid version, that would be amazingly awesome!  If not, no sweat!  And any advice you can give me on my humanoid creature to humanoid NPC transformation project, would also be greatly appreciated, but is not expected.  Most of all, and most especially, keep up the good work and stay safe, sane, and healthy!!!  Thanks again!

First of all, thank you for your kind words.

 

What I do when I create a new race is basically this: I start with the head of an existing anthro race (for instance a horse race or minotaur race) and then painstakingly remodel it to look like the head of an entirely different animal (for instance, a rhino or a pig). I always do the face first and make the face textures while I work on the face. It's only at the end that I make the body textures.

 

As you can imagine, that makes it a little difficult to fulfill your request even if I had wanted to do it. Even then, to me, having anthros with human faces isn't just selling it cheap, but a bit unsettling. I don't really understand the attraction. 😅 Not trying to make fun of your preferences or anything. I just don't get it, really. To me, anthro basically means 'an animal with a torso shaped like a human's', not 'a human that's made to resemble an animal'. It's a very different way to look at it.

 

Besides, It's only the oral sex that might occasionally look a little scuffed. Everything else looks fine, so I don't really see the whole "I want a human face just because the oral sex looks strange" as an argument for why you would prefer a human face. That feels like an underhanded but subtle way of saying that you don't really like anthros with animal heads.

I see, well if that's how you make them, then I can see why my request wouldn't work, regardless!  Oh well...  I'm still going to enjoy your anthro races as much as I can!  May I have your permission to use your assets in any mods that I make?!?

 

As for the rest of your comment, I'm sorry you felt so attacked and offended, that was NOT my intention!  I can certainly imagine myself doing all sorts of things 'between the sheets' with your current anthro creations!  It wasn't an easy choice, and I may change my mind in the future.  It's not so much that I "don't really like anthros with animal heads", but more that I just don't care.  Whether a female has a human head or an animal one doesn't have any swaying power in how attracted I am to her, any more than skin or hair color.  I don't go "Wow, a blonde, you're extra sexy!" any more than I go "OMG, a redhead, I could never!"  So too, Anthro, Alien, or Human head just doesn't matter to me sexually, none of that can raise or lower my attraction.  Oral sex, on the other hand, does matter to me.  Not a lot, but even just a little bit is more than the nothing that head types doesn't matter to me.  And, like I said before, I am wavering on how much weight I should put on oral.

 

That all said, I can see how if the head type did matter to you sexually, you could be offended by someone for whom the head type didn't matter at all.  My indifference might come across as a negative judgement, "You find that sexy?!  How could you?!!  You're messed up in the head!"  But just recognize that that voice whispering hate in your head, even if it's doing so in the voice of my comments, isn't me, and it isn't a rational or reasonable entity.  It's the sort of irrational an unreasonable entity that if you like breasts, and someone else likes legs, will whisper "OMG, how can he not like boobs, and who the heck cares about legs that much?!? That guy's not normal, he's not like you, he's not one of you, you need to stay away from him!"  When the reality is that liking breasts or butts or legs is just a thing, and often not one that we can control, and, most importantly, only says something about the person with that preference, and not anything about anyone else.

 

So I'm sorry if you felt that I was 'selling your work cheap', or missing the whole point of an anthro body, or otherwise just "unsettling" you.  That was very much not my intention!  I also don't think that such a thing was in my words to you either, but maybe it was?!  Regardless, the only thing you can do is the only thing I can do when reading someone else's words, tell that toxic voice in my head to shut the heck up and give the other party as much grace and assumption of goodness as I can.

 

I hope you have a wonderful day, and that you're able to make a lot of progress on your next anthro, whatever it is (still rooting for a super built and super stacked minotauress)!

I'm not offended at all, and that's actually quite clear in my previous message. All I said is that I personally find human-anthro hybrids a bit unsettling to look at and I don't understand why some people find that sort of anthropomorphic character attractive. When I say that human-anthro hybrids are selling it cheap, I simply mean to say that I think of them as an uncanny, failed design without a clear purpose. They don't really look like the animals they're supposed to represent; just a human with a few animal-like features. Why not just have a regular human at that point? Why go through the effort if you're not gonna go the whole way? Full anthros, like my races, have a more or less identical appearance to the real animals except that they're bipedal and have a torso shaped like that of a human. Even their hands, feet, and heft are made to resemble what you'd expect of the real animals.

I'm currently working on my Bison race (the one I advertised a while back) and I also have plans for a few other things as well, such as a giraffe race, moose race, tapir race, crocodile race, gharial race, alligator race, and a jackal race. Besides that, I might also finally release some of those old prototypes people have been asking for. It's mostly my own laziness that's gotten in the way of the latter. 😅

No need to wait for Minotaurs. We've already had them for years now thanks to Bad Dog's ungulate mod. Multiple of my races require that mod as a base anyway and it's likely to stay that way until someone helps me make them all standalone.

I'm sorry for miss-reading you, and I'm extra happy you're fine!  The problem with text only communication is that it's just the verbal part of communication, and 80% of normal (face-to-face) communication is non-verbal, so it misses a lot and is easy to therefor misunderstand. 🤷‍♂️

I see, I think I understand where you're coming from now! 😜 As for "Why not just have a regular human at that point? Why go through the effort if you're not gonna go the whole way?"  I think that idea/opinion is a perfectly logical outcome of your own personal and particular perspective.  If I'm reading you right, let me present my own perspective couched from within your own, not to argue or disagree (your opinion is perfectly valid), but just to share my own.  You see more human furries as "failed design without a clear purpose" because, from your perspective there are humans -> anthros -> animals, and each of those is a district quantized step, with anything in between a failed attempt to move from one solid step to the next.  Am I correct about your 'digitized' view of the issue?

 

Well for me the process from human to animal isn't digital, it's analog.  There's a spectrum, with human on one end, and animal on the other, with a near infinite number of points in between.  Imagine a full human to full animal transformation animation, one which you can stop at any point while it's playing, each of those places where you pause the animation is a different human-animal blend choice.  One of those infinite points that I wasn't even aware was an option is a humanoid hybrid with both human and animal ears!  That seems entirely pointless to me, a "failed design without a clear purpose" if you will, but I guess some people like that specific degree of blending. 🤷‍♂️😜  And that's what the spectrum is, a continuous blend of alterations that takes one from a full, normal, human, to a full, normal, animal.  So from my perspective, the only way to "go the whole way" is to go full animal, with no human aspects.  Everything else is a personal design choice to stop somewhere else on the human-animal spectrum before "go[ing] the whole way".  In that case, each stop is no more 'complete' or 'incomplete' than any other (because you can't have definitive unassailable "stopping points" on a continuous spectrum).

 

As for where I am on my spectrum, well I don't have a definitive blend I'm always aiming for (I might just give a 'dual-eared' girl a try!), but I do have some general guidelines.  One is humanoid/tool manipulating hands, because seeing stuff just floating next to (or clipping through) a hoof, for example, is too immersion breaking and kid's cartoon logic-ish for me.  And the other is a deep-throat-able mouth (probably?!  Because it's fun!).  In fact, to justify that stand a bit further, now that I just realized it only right now, but the same qualities that enable deep-throating are also responsible for enabling kissing in general.  And I like kissing (and French kissing), so yeah, a kissable (and thus also, conveniently, a deep-throat-able) mouth is a must (sorry, but bumping noses or licking cheeks just doesn't cut it as an acceptable kissing replacement for me)! 😜  Oh, and a human torso with non-hairy boobs (and maybe butt?  See, no hard standards!  The appearance of such, like yours that doesn't really 'look' hairy would be fine, because the bottom line is that licking, kissing, and sucking fur-unlike skin or fine scales-isn't, in my personal opinion, fun or sexy, it's just an invitation for a hairball, which would be certain to ruin the mood)!  But probably as much fur or other animal aspects as possible outside of those limits (probably 😜).

 

Your stopping point on my spectrum is also bound by some simple guidelines: As animal as possible, but bipedal with a sexy human torso and boobs.  Which is fine, but it's not the only logical or reasonable stopping point.  Going back to that 'transformation animation' I mentioned in the second paragraph, it would be entirely possible to 'pause' it at a point that would produce some sort of horrific and garish human-animal mish-mash mess.  And while that would be a "failed design" as far as making a sexy human-animal hybrid is concerned, even that stopping point wouldn't be "without a clear purpose" if your goal wasn't to make a sexy hybrid, but a ghoulish or monstrous one to fulfil some horror-themed role.  It all depends upon what outcome you want and what design limitations you're working under.  So, "Why not just have a regular human at that point? Why go through the effort if you're not gonna go the whole way?"  Because variety is the spice of life!  Isn't that why people like furries or anthros, because they're not completely normal (boring) humans?  Sometimes a change doesn't have to be massive to become new and thus interesting.

 

I hope that answers your implied question?! 😜

I just bought a new PC and I'm working on a new build, so you never know. It just might happen some day.

[Leggo_bro]

Are the green races in the planned section already done?

Thank you for your enthusiasm. No, I haven't worked on the mod in over half a year, but it's not that I don't want to. The process is just so time consuming that I can't really bring myself to continue. Making one of these races alone can take 1-2 weeks of almost continuous work, and that is simply proving to be too much. As for the bison, it has sat at about 90-95% completion for about a year now. I'm done making promises that I don't end up keeping. If I end up releasing it, it will shadowdrop out of the blue.

 

If you play Conan Exiles, I do make a lot of really detailed furry/anthro character presets and have been thinking about releasing them for a while now.

[Dickydickz]

Hope you will work on them again no rush though
