Argonian Leopard Gecko skin texture


Trassel

Recommended Posts

Hi! One mod I'd really like to see yet lack the software and skill to create myself is a new skin for Argonians that looks a bit like a leopard gecko's skin. I understand that creating a fat tail would be too difficult as well as probably cause clipping problems and such.

 

What is a leopard gecko?

They're desert-dwelling small lizards found around Iraq. They are nocturnal, small enough to fit in your hand, live for about 20 years and eat live insects. The tail is fat because they store fat in it as an energy reserve, much like how camels store water in their hump.

They look like this:

Why this mod?

Simple: I own a leopard gecko as a pet, and would like to recreate her in Skyrim since my current dorm room doesn't allow pets and I miss her a lot. I've heard of people making Khajit characters of their pet cats, and wanted to do something similar. Hopefully there will be another lizard owner who'll like this!

 

Is it lore-friendly?

Probably not, as there's no reason why the Argonians should have this colour and pattern as it's based on a desert-dwelling lizard.

 

If you want it so much, why don't you make it yourself?

I am terrible with computers. I also don't know how one would go about making this type of texture mod, nor do I have any software for it (the only image manipulation program I have is Paint, haha). I can't paint digitally either, sorry.

 

Thanks for reading, sorry about my English, it is not my first language.

Have a good day, everyone!
