Besides nercomancer one?

Sometimes I try to use abominations I skin collection and wonder how do people make this work?

    No. They don’t.


    (Actually my Argonian vamp looks much better in the Bright-Throat skin, but that’s not really what you mean & is very race specific)

    my khajit looks nice in dro'mathra skin, but that's mostly cause it compliments her original coloring. aside from that....meh

    My khajiit also looks good in his dro'mathra.

    The ice skin looks cool on some characters, it depends on what you pair it with for armor imo

    Meridian Purified is the only one that actually looks good without much effort. I have a character in full heavy armor using Arctic Rime, so it just looks like she has snow on her face. Mind Shriven is tough but I ended up using it on my Argonian with a matching blue dye, and he ended up looking really cool. Zombie is nice for Halloween...

    Blood Forge, Crystal Frost and Ebony Epidermis remain unused...

    The Meridian Purified and Sanctified Silver skins look pretty cool on any toon. The HoF skin is pretty neat too, but it varies from person to person. Those two are just the nicest, alongside the Necromancer skin.

    Well, we will not see any cool vampire skins, since optical nerfs are important. :trollface:

    The league of extraordinary vamp haters whines ten thímes louder than the united nerflings.
    It just works, it just works, little lies, stunning shows,
    people buy, money flows, it just works.
    It just works, it just works, overpriced open worlds,
    earnings rise, take my word: IT JUST WORKS!

    None of you look good in skins if you want another honest opinion. Ofc that doesnt mean that we try to change your mind. Just answering the topic question

    The Rime Frost skin makes my Nord even whiter, which goes well with the whole "Men of the North" theme.

    I have some ideas on what to do with the Falkreath Hold skin, but first I have to get a no-death run completed on that...

    Otherwise, many other skins I probably would never ever dream of using, because they all look fairly unappealing.

    I'm really digging the Scalecaller skin with the Meridian Sunburst tattoos. The blue and yellow compliment each other nicely in the few spots they overlap. Never been happier with my templar's look tbh.

    Couldn't tell you. Most armor doesn't show enough skin and it cannot be hidden so never really get to see the skins unless I take the armor off.

    Because I don't carry around pics of my characters in my wallet like they're my grandkids? lol.

    No shame here in having pics. ;)

    Meridian Purified on my vampire characters is pretty much default for me ...

    The Rime skin is the best currently existing skin for hiding vampirism imho. It looks the most natural without flashy elements.

    I use most of my skins and often theme a character around them: my templar healer kitty is a Dro mathra with matching mount and kitten, my warden kitty healer is an ice cat with ice horse and wraith thingy. I have necro skin and personality ready to go on the baby necro, along with zombie horse and dead skelly cat! I like things to match! Kitty nightblade wears Meridia skin with matching mount and pet, etc.

    Still don't have a character for the Mazz skin, and will probably make a lizard necro to use the Blackrose Prison scaly skin. Beast skin and personality will go to my werewolf. :)

    I like to use my skins as badges of honour, but also make them work with a character's theme.

    (The Dro mathra one was from a carry, but the cat wearing it has since actually earned it anyway - bloody twins grrrr! :D ).

    Two hands working are more useful and productive than a thousand hands clasped in prayer.

    It's a hard question to answer because it's so subjective. What looks good to one person can easily look awful to another. I can say I'm super glad the skins are an available option, even the ones which I don't like. Options are good. I would certainly like to see additional skins added which are a little more "normal" (i.e. less flashy).


    For the New Life event, I tried several different outfit combos and came up with a few which I liked a lot. I've kept these two and they get a lot of whispered compliments:

    (I'm really looking forward to when they add the Maormer Fishscale skin for this one; I think she's going to look amazing as a Maormer! I'll also give her the clouded Prophet eyes and she'll be ready for the sea.)
