Description Fan art for TES V: Skyrim, featuring Many-Scars, my newest Dunmer who works as a dock worker in Windhelm and hangs out with the local Argonians (it was they that gave him that nickname).
This is more or less what happened in-game (except the weapon was actually a teeny-weeny iron dagger).
When crafting equipment, especially on low levels, I always give priority to my followers, lest they get cut into shreds. So while Many-Scars is running around in scanty fur armour (not that it doesn’t compliment his athletic built), his buddy Scouts-Many-Marshes (yay console!) received a set of shiny steel. Only Many-Scars ran out of ingots at the very last moment.
And Shahvee is right about forks! They drive her kinsfolk mad! www.uesp.net/wiki/Shivering:Th…

Doesn't that always happen?! Just one ingot short. Golly, those lil happy argonian eyes! So adorable! 

Can I pet Scars' hair. Oh, and his scars?  *hands him topless fur armour...*

Thank you so much for appreciating!
Well, he has the semi-topless version already.
Actually, he has a thing about getting touched. He favours the bow and ranged magic - everything to prevent his foes from getting too close to him... The lad needs someone to teach him about the powers of the touch of a woman. Someone older, and wiser, and Nerevarine-ey.

Hmmm, I have a feeling I know just the chap... ;D 

Poor dear, I'm pretty sure I'd be the same way. I prefer letting Teldy get all dirty and bloody while I sit back and behold his handiwork, a stray arrow now and again perhaps.

 I guess I'll resort to sending him fan letters...maybe a few /hugs in a post script. x)

Uhuhu, I'm glad you catch my drift.
Fan letters would be beyond sweet! I hope he can read.

I love how you draw Argonians. This comic has a lot of charm in it. You think you'll make a tutorial (of how you make your comics) someday? I'm super curious.

Thank you so much!
Oh my, a tutorial? That would certainly make me feel important.
I use Inkscape, which is a vector drawing program, all about creating simplistic coloured shapes and comibing them into more complex drawings.
It's available for free on its website: www.inkscape.org/en/
There are also a bunch of vector drawing tutorials in there, inkscape.org/doc/basic/tutoria…
but when I glanced through them, my brain withered like a leaf. I just found my way around the program by poking at the pretty-pretty buttons.
Come to think of it, a tutorial would be pretty handy, since I am not sure if there are many fan artists in the TES community that are familiar with vector drawing. The My Little Pony fans use it a lot, though (they even call Inkscape Ponyscape!).
I have never considered making a tutorial, but now you got me all enthusiastic.

I'd love to see a tutorial to learn how you put your comics together. I haven't heard of Inkscape before, but I used to use a vector program (CorelDraw) at a studio I worked for (many years ago).

If fanartists for MLP use Inkscape too, I bet they'd also appreciate a tutorial as well.

I'm sure a butter knife like that would come in handy. Skyrim butter has to be frozen rock-solid.
Thank you!
