Face-to-face with the People of Skyrim

Talented photographer Andy Cull and a few others had the genius idea to take portraits of NPCs in the popular video game Skyrim. He and a team went through all of the people of Skyrim, took multiple photos of all of their faces and then picked out the best images of faces to present in a gallery. This process must have taken weeks to complete finish and display the amazing artwork at hand. Not only the photographers, but the amount of detail put in by the development team.

The exhibition contains eighteen photos. All photos were taken in-game and there was no usage of image altering software to make the portraits more magnificent. Then again, how could one make these breaktaking photos any better? The whole gallery can be viewed here as well as a short message from the humble Andy.

Video game photography is not a new trend, but it has become increasingly more common among gamers today. From snapping a selfie in Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD with the tyrannical Ganondorf in the background to using Snapmatic in Grand Theft Auto V to make the perfect sunset in the desert last forever, in-game photo taking it quite popular. Soon enough, there might be a place among eSports and such to group this hobby with. For now, enjoy the beautiful pictures.
