Silt Strider from The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind

Stages of Morrowind fast travel awareness :

1. Oh god the rumors were true, there's no fast travel

2. Oh the Silt Striders

3. Huh, there's also boats and the guild guides and intervention spells

4. Where the fucking hell did intervention send me this time. Why is it Ald'ruhn when I was almost on top of Gnisis

5. Mark and Recall HELL YEAH

6. I can barely contain this spaghetti bowl of possible connections in my brain. I have a London taxi cab driver's knowledge of Vvardenfell at this point but I still always end up passing through Ald'ruhn somehow. Vivec City can cry about how important they are all they want. Ald'ruhn is Grand Central Station of this island

7. CHIM

Silt Strider Migration. A piece I developed from a doodle made during the event in Amsterdam. For some reason I keep coming back to Morrowind...

March 13, 2023 - Gargantuan Silt Strider

Inspired by Jeff Langevin's "Whale Shepherd."

Initial sketch and up-close shots below the cut.

Here's the initial sketch. I drew this with a mouse in the middle of class. I ended up liking the water, so that's still the same in the final product lol

And some up-close looks of the final product.

I don't need romanceable companions. All I want is a silt hopper mount/pet. Never going to happen, though. 💔

Balmora silt strider, why walk when you can ride?

Some Ashlanders taking care of their silt striders. I like to think they take better care of them than the house dunmer.

Based on my favorite piece of Morrowind concept art:
