Auroran.blp

Yay, my newest skin! I was bored this weekend, so I decided to make a skin... it just hit me (I actually thought I'm gonna stop with the skins...)

Idea, motivation and inspiration are from Oblivion's Aurorans.
Aurorans are Daedric creatures who live to serve their master, Umaril the Unfeathered. They wield the power to cast lightning shocks and have a great skill of fighting with an axe.
Use and call this skin however you like, just don't edit and redistribute it without my permission!

I didn't try to make it exactly the same... but, oh well...

Give me credits in your map/campaign if you're about to use this skin! Thank you! :pcon:

Update Tuesday, Nov 3, 12:39 - 2009
- added TC on weapon's handle
- shaded the axe
- shaded some other parts of the skin

Update Wednesday, Nov 4, 9:02 - 2009
- the axe stands out less now (as 67chrome suggested)
- new matching icon

Nice skin!!! , auroran remember me something..., did you take this from TES oblivion?
Yeah, just like I said in the description. :prazz:
They're actually from TES Oblivion: Knights of the Nine. Oh, and I didn't take it, I just used it as an inspiration.
Don't like the texture of the blade. Looks too cartoony or something. The rest of the model's skin is great though.
Yeah, I might change that a bit.

Maybe you could possibly make the Order people? The ones who are with Jyggalag (or however his name is spelled :p )
Knights of Order, yeah, I was thinking about making them. But should I also base it from Felguard, or should I use Elven Swordman (footman)? Or anyone else got a better idea? Hmm, who knows, I might even make a Dark Seducer and Golden Saint. :pcon:

Knight of Order, eh? Hmm... I think that footman\captain should do the trick. If you're planing on making the Priest of Order too, Priest is definitely the model of choice for you... But that might give you some trouble with the helmet(but you can always just make the head a helmet).

As for Seducers\Saints, I think that Night Elf Sentry will do well.

Very impressive model, as an Oblivion gamer myself, (racking up some 36+ hours of total playtime) I have to say you did an amazing recreation of the Auroran from Knights of the Nine Addon.

Personally they were my favorite part of the whole DLC, and although the its not an exact replica of Auroran from Oblivion it fits the Felguard model nicely. (It would look great on the Grunt model but thats just my opinnion :cool:)

Kudos for the detail on the elven axe too. :grin:

5/5 with some + rep for an amazing job! :thumbs_up:

Regards,

Jake
