    Hello Okan-Zeeus! I would like a Screenshot, of the following: Imperial Male 1 from this Picture with gray eyes, wearing    The Ritual Armor of Boethiah with Mask. Nightingale Bow and ebony arrows at his back, holding The Blade of Sacrifice up with Astrid on the Alter Of Sacrifice behind him; Hes facing away from her looking at the camera (Waist up shot) about to turn around to Kill her. 

    If you do this Thank You! 

    Edit: Kind of like this Artwork

    The Oracle!!! Alastor. THAT is a screenshot that would get passed around quite a bit... I can only imagine how often Zach would throw that image out xD

    I'm thinking of making a profile for my blog's protagonist Elwynn, and there's no shot I'd rather have for it than an Okan-Zeeus portrait!

    In terms of his appearance, he's a wood elf with he wears thieves guild armor with Cynric Endell's Hood (id 000e35df, if it doesn't work then normal tg hood is fine) with steel arrows and an imperial bow on his back. He's a very young guy with the second lightest bosmer skin tone, amber eyes, and a strong jawline for an elf. Other than that, the only facial quality I really care about is his mischievous look--I definitely see him with a smirk, as if he's planning something insane.

    I have this sort of scenic portrait in mind of him sitting in the middle of the fallen tree bridge in Whiterun near Hillgrund's Tomb looking down at a beautiful sunset, but he's facing a little to the left and the camera a little to the right, so his profile is visible as well as a sweeping view.

    Thanks, Okan! Can't wait to see your take on this. I'm sure it will be astonishing, as always

    Also I left out my mistake... I would like the Screenshot at night But very well lit and maybe a full moon in the shot as well, but in the Corner or just the light of it in the corner so most of the light goes in to The Imperial's face.

    Hmm... That's a tall order you've given me. In terms of game mechanics, I'll have to figure out a way to put Astrid on the Alter of Sacrifice. I have an idea of how I might do that, but it'll be tricky.

    Still, that last reference image was just what I needed to see. I know exactly how to set up the rest of the shot. Consider it done. 

    As a side note, any preference on facial expressions?

    I like the mental image I'm getting with your description. This should be a fun screenshot to make. I'll gladly do it.

    Hang on Boro. I just realized this. You're asking me to make a shot of two characters with only descriptions of their appearances.

    This would mean I'd have to go into the creation kit and make an npc mod to add one of the characters... It's not terribly strenuous, but still a bit of a pain. I hate having to make up character appearances from scratch.  

    I'm only allowing one custom character per shot with a description. Any chance you can give me something more to work with?

    Well why not, an interesting screenshot is always a good idea. I'm not that great at describing people and I hope a bit of a reference image to base it on might help you out a little (honestly If I tried describing a character it would probably be worse for you in terms of getting the character out of it.) 

    Here is the base image in terms of the face, the eyes of the character are a bright green and the rest is simply a rather attractive, noble looking young Altmer.

    The shot would take place with her sitting on the throne in Understone Keep, it would be a headshot off her and if possible could it be her looking out from under the Hood (with her eyes being the highest thing visible). The entire area would  be darkened a little so it's quite dramatic looking.

    Oh right her Armour would be Glass Armour, Boots and Gauntlets with the Shrouded Hood. 

    Sorry if it's not that good of  a request, I really am quite horrible at this.
