    Part of being a vampire, is realizing that in the later stages you won't be as pleasing to look at. Embrace your vampire.

    For comparison, my khajiit doesn't seem to take any of the skins too well. Not a vampire though, but neither of the skins seem to come close to 'mortal' looks. vSP skin is the clear winner though.

    I agree. On human/elven characters and light furred/scaled khajiit and argonians it's good. But on khajiit or argonians with originally dark fur or scales it just makes them not completely white anymore, but the best you get is a light grey instead.

    Putting a skin on still hides tattoos though. And this skin is far from normal. It makes your character look like they came out of a freezer (which I guess is the point).

    More normal. Certainly not entirely normal.

    Do they hide tattoos? I've not really paid that much attention.

    With tattoo....

    I guess it's just a preview bug then (it hides my tattoos when I preview it).

    Yeah, the preview hides the tattoos. Normally, you can see them on it.

    Preview is badly implemented especially when you consider the preview function is there to allow the buyer to make a more informed choice when purchasing certain items. I dislike how when previewing skins etc it throws your costume hat back on. I actually had to remove my dark shaman costume because it kept showing the skin with the hat activated. And that particular costume hat covers your entire face.

    They can't without a massive *** ensuing. It costs gems and by the very nature of the CC's means they need to keep what little goodwill there is surrounding the purchases people make.

    Thanks for this thread! I picked the skin up last night and put it on my Bosmer. I think it looks pretty good, and I’m very happy with it.

    To me, it almost looks like she is wearing make-up to cover her vampirism, which although I don’t usually role play, is still pretty cool from a character perspective!

    @Aixy I'm sorry but cant remember. I've had this character for over 3 years. I think I can remember picking something just on the lighter shade of the middle setting. Sorry I cant help further

    If you still have race change tokens, you can use it to see customization options of your char, just don't accept and go back when you're done.

    I guess it's not surprising it works this way. We take dead meat and preserve it in freezers, so why would it not preserve a vampire's looks.

    I love how it makes my altmer nice and pale with a more....human complexion. I never liked the golden skin tone of altmer, now he looks more like a Falmer with his skin infused with magica. RP heaven! It also looks great on my Dunmer!

    If this is a bug, please ZOS do not fix it!

    It's a nice skin, but doesn't look good on every character. Some look like they got a skin disease... My high elf still looks better at stage 1 vampirism.
    I'm waiting for the Maomer skin. That will be x10 times better than any currently available skins.

    Thank you for this thread! I wasn't going to get the rime skin because in the previews it made lip color disappear (my main usually wears the royal purple lipstick), but because of this thread, I see that, no, it actually doesn't disappear! Many thanks! Love the skin!

    I think the issue is in the naming.

    The Dragonscale crate skin is more of a hoar frost, where the water vapor in the air has suddenly frozen and adhered to your epidermis rather than replacing the epidermis.

    The New Life skin is more of a rime, where a liquid (water, azure plasm, or otherwise) has frozen into a solid.
