Morrowind Characters and Creatures

Weapons
A selection of weapons that I worked on for Morrowind. These images are taken from Bethesda's own Elderscrolls.com. Click on any of the graphics to return to my main Morrowind page.

Chitin Weapons

Like the armour, the Chitin weapons are formed from the shells of the insect-like creatures that roam Morrowind.

For the textures I used the skin of a grass hopper as inspiration and took it from there. Many of my textures come about that way.

Nordic Weapons

The etching on the weapons was, in my mind, something like a history of the weapon and its owners. I envisioned that the weapon would be passed down through the family, and the heroic deeds carried out with it would be etched into the metal after each battle If you look closely there's a dragon head in there where the Axe was once used to slay a dragon.

Glass and Daedric Weapons

The Daedric weapons use the black and red motive typical of Daedric items.

The "glass" weapons I imagined being more of a crystal-like substance, so I used quartz crystals as a starting point. I tried to give the impression that they had been grown into the sword hilt rather than glued onto it.

The Daedric sword has been featured on two magazine covers and is possibly my favourite among the weapons I worked on.
