How do you make good looking argonians?

Tasear

Here am with my champion level argonian thinking I made a mistake maybe it's the race...but I an inclined to believe I made something similar to a fashion blunder that I wish to destroy from existence when designing my character. So I ask how do you go about your creation of less humanoid races? I wish to not kill my character , but how do you make scales look cool or sexy?


Edit:

Argonians are cream of the crop. Just lick some of that juicy hist sap and you'll see the true beauty hidden under those scales.

When I'm in the character creator and choose race I pick "Orc" and thats it. Sexiest race in Tamriel.

You never met Razum-dar if you do not think the sexiest race in Tamriel is Khajiit.

Dark/black skin together with mazzatun achievement skin looks pretty good, but overall, polymorph is solution!

Any argonian is a good looking argonian

I always wonder this.

When I fiddle (hehe) with Argionians in character creation they always look derpy, then I see one ZOS made as an NPC and think I WANT A COOL CHARACTER LIKE THAT!

I am bad at making characters it seems.

You put them in a cage. Voila! Prettiest thing in all of tamriel.

How? Lizard tiddies.

I have two Argonians. While creating the first one, Deek Nagmus, I gave in to the temptation to give him big "devil horns" spines on his head. I'm planning to spend some cash to revamp his spiny crest soon. My 2nd Argonian is Shuns-the-Knife (she'll use staves and maces, but not swords or axes). She has a fashionably modest set of small head spines, but she further improves her looks by wearing a head wrap dyed to match her dusty-gold-and-green clothes.

There is no such thing .

Beauty is in the eye of the Beholder ... Embrace your scales and shift your perception.

General character creation tips: define a personality, build around it, if the character creator doesn't allow you to then alter the personality to fit.

Are-you-gonian my way?

every argonian looks better in shackles or in leash with his master

argonian and to a degree khajiit are fantastic races to make because of their lack of obvious human features, so beauty is VERY much in the eye of the beholder.

tips would be to start with the face slider dead center to avoid any extremes, you can tweak later. another tip is also start wth no hair, adornments, or face markings (unless there is one you are just set one) and add them later. better to have a base you really like then add on to it then to start covered on makeup to the point where you cannot tell what you look like underneath. (though I love argonains with the skull makeup myself)

if unsure avoid slider extremes and stay neutral. a personally tend to slim the forehead, chin, and cheekbones, and extend the nose a bit, to create a more raptor predatory look. but once again, with beast races its VERY easy to make what YOU like and no way to really tell "oh that's gorgeous/ugly!"

also argonians tend to have bulbous back heads so you might consider horns or feathers that cover it (I personally use the crown of feathers from the store because I LOVE its look, that said they don't dye)

That's a tough one

I think Argonian males are hot (serious) ((I know, I may have gone a little bit wrong))

HEAD FIN!

I tend to try and go for crocodile (shorter, broader snout, flatish head. I'm not sure they do sexy very well. But can be moderately fearsome.

Don't try to make them look human. Try to make them look like they are something humanoid but clearly not human. Otherwise you will end up with some odd looks. Embrace the reptilian side!

I've yet to see a bad-looking Argonian. Met some ugly cats, but lizards look super fine.

(But again I dated that frog...I mean, alien assassin in ME2. Humans are so boring. No I'm not a furry. Really.)

I tried to make a female argonian once but I was disturbed by the idea of breasts on a lizard, so I switched to male. I stuck with the more natural lizard colours, a nice green with a snakeskin scale pattern. I avoided the paler colours because for some reason they reminded me of E.T. when he gets sick and turns white, and that's also so very disturbing to me lol. I gave him big green eyes with a slight squint and some nice high cheekbones. Don't worry so much about the spines because those can always be changed later if you buy the hairstyle packs from the crown store. I made him max height with nice muscles. Actually, he's kind of my ideal man ok ok, he's hot, but I swear I'm not a furry!

SpearDusk

Not sure how one can make a good looking lizard

HatchetHaro

Skins. All the skins look awesome on Argonians. Perhaps it's an effect of not having a human standard of beauty to apply to lizards.

Otherwise, you can always toy around in character creation.

To be fair, you can't f*** up. Any Argonian is a good looking Argonian.

If you disagree, here's an another tip:
Have Dunmer friends. Dark elves are so ugly, that they'll make everything else around them look much better.
Why do you think some people bought the Tel Garen house? If I had to look at a Dunmer all the time, then ZoS could impossibly make something disgusting.
