    You got some amazing backdrops!
    Especially the one with the fishing boat on Heartwood Mill which I really like!
    But my favorite is the one where she reads a book by the fire!
    Great job my friend!!

    You know your Skyrim really does remind me of an Alice in Wonderland adventure.
    Suffice to say I think Skyrim is so customizable to meet other people's needs that the world itself tends to personalize into it's owner's subconscious
    The world is almost hamlet-like, especially from afar the way Whiterun looks and the details of everything. The streams and waters are very noticeable, perhaps you're a water-sign zodiac? not sure, but I find that intersting. Your blind follower reminds me of my follower Arla-the-Guardian. There are a lot of grey tones, which might symbolize that your world though hamlet-like, is also realistic and has seen many losses. The civil war must be very noticeable in your game with those grey aesthetics. The snow is also heavily noticable too, which means winter wonderland must be a rocking time. Also your characters look like they have their own signature outfits, almost like you could write a novel and use them verbatim

      Thank you so much for your detailed insight.
      DynDOLOD along with many excellent mod developers have transformed Skyrim into not just a dated game that has aged well but into legendary game that looks as good or better than any of the most recent game releases.
      It's going to be a tough act to follow for Bethesda with the eventual release of the next Elder Scrolls which hopefully will have it's own Creation Kit allowing it to be transformed to another level.

      The use of followers in my game is somewhat of a lazy convenience that allows me to take more interesting shots along the way without particular focus on screen design techniques. I like for me game to feel alive, so I tend to focus on the interaction among the various characters.

      Truth be told, I'm not a fan of the Civil War game aspect. I'm more of the mind: Why can't we all get along. :)
      That attitude is why I have struggled with the faction's conflict in FO4 but I am currently playing a mod that will hopefully allow for a more satisfying resolution: Subversion

      Best wishes always,

      I find the fallout 4 experience to be kinda lonely compared to the skyrim thriving experience
      Graphically fallout 4 is an improvement, but everything else though, is kinda a downgrade.
      All I do is take feet pictures of Jill Valentine in my fallout 4 experience, which the fallout 4 community hates. But their constant complaining us what prompts me to post even more, and remove the comment sections so they can't say anything
      But as far as playing, though my resident evil playthrough is fun and stuff, the game is just veru lonely and I dont really run into npc, or have any mods to enhance immersion or npc interaction

      Again my heartfelt thanks, Angie.
      The DynDOLOD generation turned out well for this playthrough.
      Probably my favorite LODs featuring Blubbo's Aspens and Pines along with Nature of the Wildlands.
      Hope this finds you well.
      Best wishes always,

      Thank you so much, Elle. Very sweet of you to say.
      We all owe these beautiful scenes to the wonderful mod developers here on the Nexus and beyond. /salute

      The home projects are coming along nicely.
      We are old now so things take more time but we are making good progress:
      New flooring throughout
      Front bathroom remodeled
      Kitchen remodeled with 2 new appliances
      Added an outbuilding for more storage
      Working on new exterior lighting: added a solar powered flood light and solar powered interior lighting for the outbuildings.
      Going to install new front a new pair of front porch lights this weekend.
      So the work marches on. hahaa
      Hope you have a great weekend.
      All my best,
      Gurley

    I bet your rig raises the temp in the room by 20 degrees Fahrenheit when it's cookin' up stuff like this. That is some crazy LOD you have going on that last shot. Just thought I'd pop in and say hello. Love the codpiece. : )

    It's amazing traveling Skyrim with followers, isn't it?
    I used that phoenix follower maker mod, and Im able to put my own followers in, like a blind seeress

      It makes the game more interesting for me.
      Serena is infinitely more fun with the Serena Dialogue Addon.
      Tania the Hermit is one of my favorites; extremely sophisticated follower mod and Tania is a joy with her expressive animation, singing and dialogue.
      Eris in Light and Shade is a more recent favorite also with context sensitive lines for all of the main quests and many others.
      I also love Aviendha in the Wheel of Time.
      I'm a lazy screen shooter so I rely more on weather, time of day, the environment and follower activity to create variety in my imagery.
      Thanks for stopping by.
      Hope this finds you well old friend.
      Best wishes,
      Gurley

    I didn't recognize Lakeview Manor at all; that's a really nice overhaul. I remember the vanilla version was generic and not-so-cozy :p
    Love the look of your game as well -- so soft and vibrant, with beautiful landscapes ^^

      Thank you so much, Yahya. Means so much coming from you.
      I always enjoy your gorgeous imagery and look forward to more to come.
      And yes, that's the mod: Lakeview Manor As It should Be. A really wonderful overhaul inside and outside.
      Best wishes always,
      Gurley
