Argonian hair looks terrible. Getting worse each update.

I have posted my feedback here on the forums about the hairstyles that had come out years ago for argonians, and how unnatural they looked. I have a real problem with all of the new styles that have come out for the past few years now, the newest one especially.



First off, I was really excited about Veya's Draping Locks coming into the game, it looked absoluteky stunning on human characters...... but the argonian version? I look like a balding middle-aged uncle with big eyebrows. Short feathers around just the back of the head, and large tufts over the brows only. They don't compare at all to the long locks of the human version.

Then there's the warrior's topknot. AWESOME feather design, love it, but why put that eyesore of a backwards upright horn on the back of the head? It doesn't compliment the hair, nor is that horn natural. If it was to add a 'knot' on the back of the head, they could have very easily done something like a cocatoo crest which would compliment the whole look.


Arcanist's crest. A mohawk of curved horns alone would have been awesome. Sadly, the branching smaller horns off of that ruined it for me completely. What animal in real life has horns that do that? I would have preferred if they wanted a full mohawk to go with a Natural looking webbed crest instead. You could always make the webbing banded for that cool arcanist flavor, and add a row of small studded horns along the sides even.


Finally, whatever that short new hairstyle is in the Dark Brotherhood crates, it's horrid. Barely any textures, covers the head wrong, doesn't look like any natural feathers, and all I see is a mop or a pile if seaweed over (not on top of) my character's head. It is by far the worst and laziest-done hair to date.


@ZOS_Kevin This us my feedback, critique, and suggestions on the argonian hair I am seeing. Please, please, please, forward to the artsts in charge of these hairstyles to actually look at real animals in nature, things in previous works of fiction (dragons and other creatures) and understand how these work on things that exist already, because they clearly have zero clue themselves and I'd love to see things improve instead of the clear downhill direction it's going right now.

    I love the new feather textures which makes the joke hairstyles even more disappointing because I’ll never see those beautiful feathers. My argonians aren’t jokes, ZOS.
