Hello again everyone,

I have been making lots of new things, mainly potions and ingredients! I have also made some Frost, fire and void salts, all in handmade bowls which feels nice an authentic.

Thanks again for all the comments, it is wonderful to be able to share my passion with like minded people.

Wow! You should do the props and sets for films! Looks totally professional! Nice blade too. What have you used as the salts? Are they spices or something?

Thank you for your kind comments Aarah, The salts are simply coloured sand.

Here are a few new pictures of things I have made more recently:

This is awesome! Truly great work.~
It's also really nice to see another person who is as obsessed with making TES replicas as I am. I'm currently in the process of doing a portion of my home up in TES style.

I've been wanting to meet and speak to others who are into making TES replicas for so long, now (I don't know too many people who are obsessed with TES like myself, which is why I finally decided to join these forums, after having been using this site regularly for years). Perhaps we could chat sometime, trade ideas and such?

Thanks farore! I do get very in the mood to role-play in here a lot!

Hey Morokei, Nice to meet you, Your doing some of your home TES style, Great! Lets see some pictures.

Well a lot of people make Weapons and armour and cosplay, but not many make what I would call Misc. items, but I think there are many people whom are massive fans! Its nice to speak with someone whom is as obsessed as I am lol! It would be very nice to chat with you, and discuss etc

Regards

Wow. Wow! These pictures are amazing! I would love to be able to do something like that. (Alas, time is not on my side.) You are truly skilled, not just at decoration but at photography too.

These are still so exceptional - I'm impressed by your skill yet again! Certainly wish I could do as much. Wonderful work, and the trinket box is great: you did an amazing job capturing that Stormcloak bear. (Even though I'm a woman of the Empire...hey, I appreciate the craft! ;) )

You are an excellent photographer and the Stormcloak box is awesome.

Since you obviously appreciate alchemy in these games, I wonder: Is there a story behind the ingredients you chose? For a Skyrim alchemist, the flax seeds would have to be imported, and the two interesting effects of flax seeds are feather and shield (especially shield, since nothing like it exists among ingredients native to Skyrim). And it appears the alchemist is experimenting with dragonbone... any discoveries?

Thank you Avron! I do intend to make an imperial box actually even through I am a stormcloak follower! ;)

Thank you Snail's pace, Too be honest there is not much of a story really, I just tend to make things I fancy making, of things that come to mind, etc. I do hope to make a full on alchemist character and do a full journal of his findings etc, but Life is just too much in the way at the moment. Thanks for your comment!

Hello folks,

This is my first attempt at making a Skyrim weapon, The Axe head is sheet metal welded together, the half is wood and the wrappings are leather, the fur is faux. I had a lot of fun making this and I hope to make more weapons. :)

Thanks for looking!

I have no words to describe the tremendousness of that axe Chris. It's as though you plucked it out of the game itself!

I was wondering- where did you get all the components from (metal, fur, leather, etc)? Did you buy them all specially?

Also, have you had training or something in wordwork and sheet metal, as you seem very skilled at it?
Did you use metal for the design detail on the axe head too, as it looks quite complicated and delicate?

(Sorry for the interrogation! lol)

Here's my only attempt at doing this sort of photography. It was a bit of a cloudy day, and extremely windy (had to chase down the map once or twice), but it was my only real chance to actually sit down and do it.

Nice, Alarra! I like the little bottles and pine needles around it. We have our Skyrim map framed in our rec room haha.

Wow Thank you very much for the kind words Aarah, as for the components they are just things I have lying around, apart from the metal, that belongs to my father.

I haven't had any training, but my Father helped with the welding of the metal, the design on the axe is filler,, I hope to use metal on my next weapon however.

:mrgreen: No problem about the questions, Its a pleasure talking about it, thanks again for your compliments.

I like your set-up Alarra, the pine needles are a great touch, the bottle are of a lovely shape too!
:D Thanks for sharing your photo with us :)
