Before the storm (v2)
Done!
(You can see part of the timelapse here, if that's your thing :3)
Hammerfell, First War Against the Empire. I feel like Ondolemar was probably involved in some hush-hush stuff. Just a lil' headcanon.
(Earlier versions here)
When you play Skyrim, do you...
Take everything that isn't nailed down?
Only take what you absolutely need?
Somewhere in-between?
(Question occured after realising my partner and I have opposite gameplay-styles in almost every way. This is one of them 😹)
"Dressed to Kill"
Thanks for hosting a rad party, @tes-gala!
I'll YAP about this one, seeing as it's a special event. /threat 😇
Nat: getting him to wear anything even fancier than Thalmor battlemage uniform?
Tricky.
This is not an elf who enjoys dressing up; he'd rather be in a muddy field, knee-deep in heretics, than here with all the toadies and socialites.
But, alas. Ancano wanted to go, his own family ordered him to go, and someone from beyond Nirn kept prodding him with a digital pencil (teehee).
The five-jeweled patterns represent The Shadow, as do the exaggerated shoulders. The silk is rough and two-toned, cut for a swordsmer to move freely.
Unlike the sign suggests, Ntalym is no sneak-thief — he's 6'10" and as subtle as a sadistic neon giraffe. But in regards to personality? Oh yes.
Ancano: found himself something sharply tailored in velvet, because of course he did.
The Eye of Magnus (Ritual) needs no explanation. The choice of bright blue-green as a contrast-colour was a throwback to the artifact itself, suggesting arcane and chill magicka.
Also, this is the mer who is real quick on a certain infamous spell that sparks green -- you will NOT see it coming, because the old fox doesn't telegraph. [Witness: https://www.tumblr.com/blue-dartwing/817227911906148353/myrwatch-addendum-2-paralyze-is-a-good-spell] 🤭
As a partnership:
Villain favourites such as cold colours, sharp lines, and tall boots notwithstanding, on a deeper level—
From the wiki: "While some myths for the Shadow portray the themes of un-being [...], others portray the Shadow as the dual to the light of Magnus, representing the void through which the stars shine."
...D'awwh. :3

WIP "Wednesday" and a game!
As usual I'm late, but it's #Thalmor Thursday in Dart-land, so I bring you two things. Below the cut is some (adorable cat-coded evil) cuteness between oc Nat and Ancano, but the tableau above...oh dear. How do I explain?
It...started (as these things do) with a conversation on Discord about how Altmer who'd never seen human ears might react to them, and kinda devolved into "Thalmor trophy-collectors" -- magically preserved, paired and rare ears command high prices and may even be gambled for 🤦♀️😬
(Thanks are due to the usual suspect, I mean beloved moot, @anilliscarts ) 🤪💕
"...You're not from Markarth, I take it?"

WIP Wednesday
Ok, this is ridiculous.
So, Nat and Anca are A Thing, and I LOVE fluff and snuggles but my ace-spec brain doesn't think overmuch about...adult fun-time 🤷
Cue MY MOTHER. (💕)
I was telling rambling at her over Whatsapp about hotsprings vs the lack of bath-houses in Skyrim, and she says, "well, why not create some? I cant wait to see some nudie-elfies!"
Of course I drew her this:
(...Don't think I'll ever surpass it.)
But I knew I'd have to do a proper paint, so this Wednesday, I bring you "Post-Party" — FAR steamier than the Python parody I was doing:
Still fixing...everything...but I guess that's why it's called a WIP!
Everyone say, "thanks, Dart's Mum!" 😭😂
