Do characters look different in Creation, In Game and Character Select?

    I have created at least 100 different characters, and there are a few things that I always have to keep in mind:

    1. Hair (and fur) will appear lighter in game
    2. Eyes will appear darker in game
    3. Makeup (eyes/lips) tends to not be as prominent as warpaint/full-face paints
    4. Beard colour can look significantly different in game (beards are already quite darker than the rest of the hair, but the difference can be even bigger depending on colour)

    The differences aren't major for the most part. Except for Mer and Khajiit eyes - depending on the colour you choose, the eyes will appear waaay darker than in character creator.
    I for one am really looking forward to a barber shop, as there are quite a few tweaks I need to make to several of my characters in order for them to be perfect :wink:

    Perfect idea! Would help loads. My Khajiit character looks amazing in Coldharbour, but outside in sunlight she doesn't look half as nice.

    Those pics seem fine to me but I have noticed this when creating characters.
    I have done tall and built nords or orcs that turn out with unusual body types (weird huge thighs etc)
    But its only really noticable in the rags you start in, I didnt notice it when I was wearing gear.
