Well it is my first time reskinning, just trying it out.:)
Could you send me a copy with the folderstructure working?

Well, my main gripes are that you only have one sex, one face, and one hair type. Also, the face looks more Human than Elven, mostly because you left out the pronounced ridges above the eyes.

okey, that's easy fixes, but what do you think about the art quality?
:eek:

Well, it's good for a beginner, but really comes up under par when you compare it to Bethesda's skins. Besides not having the sye ridges, the face simply isn't detailed enough and seems to look more like a Hist because it's so round. The skin looks like someone just gave the entire race a bad Indian rub. The entire thing looks washed out (EDIT: This may be because of the night-eye), more suited to a mummified corpse, a zombie, or a vampire. The concept itself, as I have said, isn't that great either.
The spells are good. Not really great, but they aren't completely idiotic or unbalance the game much.
If you want more practice and you aren't afraid of something a bit ambitious, try making a Chimer mod. The tone that you chose for the skin would be great, if you add a little variation and detail between parts. But ditch all the lacerations. For an example, check out the Vivec skin. Add that same detail for the face, just make it look a little less pathetic and all one color. Doing the actual skin would be simple... Just look at Indoril armor.
And FFS, man! Add multiple faces and hair!

okey, thanks. He do actually look like a mummy :)
What's wrong with the concept though?
chimmer mod, hmm. Think I'll wait a while :D good idea though
Ye if I ever do release it I will have added multiple faces.

I mailed you the ZIP of the mod, with the directory structure fixed. If you want, you can RAR it on top of that like a Linux tarball.

thanks :)
no I'll keep it as it is I think.

Sorry I vanished on you a while ago, Mr. Sappe - I was more than a little busy, as you might have guessed ;) But I'm back now and I'll try and make up for my silence by having a bash at this one, if you want.
