    this thread is a very clear demonstration of how much beauty is subjective and in the eye of the beholder :P

    Making a topic on discussing attractiveness is hard i guess, u cant sell your own preferences to everyone. People have different tastes and what u find attractive others might find absolutely horrible. Tho i like posts were people just post the characters they themself find amazing looking cause with a lot of people comes alot of diversity and u can often see very interesting things.

    Heres my Breton Templar as an example. I find her very good looking and i build her looks up with a theme in mind - even tho i like her i am sure others prefer completely different looks or aesthetics.

    There is a share your character thread somewhere.. But I guess I'll put these here for now since it was brought up. Took a while to sift through my screenshots folder and gave up on a few. Just took the easy character select screens instead.

    Attractive or not, these are some of my characters, all male because I play my own gender. Multiples are newer to older.

    I have a tendency to create my characters and then go back, once or twice and edit them. I couldn’t really post a guide to my settings if I thought I liked the settings and went back and changed them.

    I had created my 4th “first” character, after deleting the others. I wasn’t happy with the previous 3 so for the 4th I created an Altmer that literally looked like Nosferatu. After I few weeks I realized I went overboard and made him much more attractive.

    After creating alts I decided my main should match my gender, so I changed everything besides the race. She was pretty good looking without looking like so many of those Barbie doll Altmer female characters you see running around. At least IMHO.

    I eventually changed her race to Breton for the passives. Here’s an image of the Altmer my main used to be.

    I have 13 characters but no idea what settings I used on all of them. It then dawned on me, if I'm not wrong here, that if I have an appearance change token I should be able to view the current settings without making any changes and using up the token.

    Funny story, on EU I made my first character an Argonian and called him Snake Split-Skin. I didn't really feel like an Argonian so I changed him into a Breton, with an eyepatch.

    You do know your mount has saddlebags and you don't need to sling them around your neck? right?????

    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, always, and if you want saddlebags or basketballs attached to your chest, and you call that beauty, you are not wrong for you. ROFL............ otherwise, barf, just barf....... including the faces.

    My eyes behold beauty quite differently.

    For me, faces are differently balanced for each sex/race combination (elves a little more pointy, males a little rugged), but with body sliders I tend to avoid extremities. Many armor and costume, since they are molded onto their skin, will look goofy with max chest or leg-wide arms.

    Why are some of their breasts so large? The dunmer especially looks like she would have a backache all the time...

    They look bigger because a) the face is so narrow and b) the torso is set on min size, so they're out of proportion.

    If they had wider faces and an average sized torso, they would look far less extreme.

    Also, the arms are very small, so are probably set on min size, too, which adds to the totally out of proportion look.

    You can't actually make breasts extremely large, in this game, but you can make everything else, upper body-wise, tiny and that is exactly what OP has done, lol.

    I'd guess that the particular outfits (some add a lot of bulk) & camera angle are also contributing.

    Because, yeah - this game doesn't really go up to "basketball" like some out there do.

    its actually easy...every race has certain aspects of their faces changed to the more extreme - for example dunmer have very edgy triangle faces, nord have very wide round faces, bosmer have huge eyes etc... so just look at what those extremes are and counterbalance them....

    Beauty depends on the eye that looks at it.

    In my case, i don't like women with makeup, if i liked makeup i would have married a clown.

    My wife made this character a long time ago, and i liked it, although i didn't play with it.

    Ha ha ha! I was going to post a comment about less being more in the breast department, and I see that other forum members have already tackled that one. Your characters faces are very attractive. Keep up the good work! :)

    Although I didn't copy it exactly, the Redguard sliders in the original post helped me make my best Redguard character yet so thanks OP.

    My altmer sorcerer also reminds me of her, but it has to be in the right angle.

    Edit: Screenie. I don't know if other people can see it, but it definitely reminds me of her.

    My wife doesn't play ESO but since the beginning she's designed all my characters. Here's one of my favorites (redguard templar; yes I've stuck with my faithful redguard over orc :D) she did back when we got our tokens. She was going for Megan Markel and she's properly named Duchess of Sussex.

    Amazingly, given the limitations, that does actually look (almost) recognisably like Meghan, even if you didn't know who it was supposed to be.

    Albeit, in a slightly unflattering way...

    The face is a bit wider, but other than that, it's pretty good.

    Your wife clearly has a talent for this, lol.

    @Tigerseye Thank you. Yes I think she did a great job too. If my screen shot was better quality and was zoomed better you could see her freckles as well. One last thing to note..Megan was still pregnant if I remember correctly, so her bust was a little larger than currently, lol :Do:)

    More than a few I know, but as its been said everyone has their own preferences, and to me all of my boys are attractive in their own way.

    But if anyone is interested in sliders for any of them, just let me know.
