Dunmeri Hanboks

 

Hanboks (한복, in korean) are the traditional garments of (you guessed it) Korea. They're caracterised by bright colours, along with simple lines and no pockets. A fun fact is that hanbok in korean means literally clothing, but today is almost exclusively used to refer to the Joseon Dynasty dress.

While playing Morrowind lately I loved the fantasy vibe of the world, the alien feeling and the well-constructed culture of the dunmer. It is true that the Elder Scrolls races don't have a real world exact counterpart, but i've always liked the concept of dunmers having a bit of an east asian vibe, which I feel most palpable in Mournhold specifically for it's architecture.

Long story short, Inspired by morrowind, and by this mod in specific, I wanted to bring that concept to life and ported some hanboks from the sims 3 to the game, resulting in these colourful and beautiful dresses!

The colours I made were five traditional looking palletes, recreating the garments in the tumblr post's screenshots, and two more improvised colours for my dunmer character, Yanfei.

The swatches include: Blue, Pink, Purple, Red, Pastel Green/Apricot, Lavender, White (as a mourning garment) as well as the PSD file with the colour channels and patters so you can make your custom swatch if you wish

Below are the pictures of the garment ingame, showcasing almost all the colours

The following pics are without an ENB, so you can check the colours aswell without scenarios and weird lightings.

(You already know how difficult is to behave for ENBs, i've been through hell mixing and matching different configurations to take the pictures above)

There's no .esp file, meaning you'll have to add them through the Construction set by yourself.

So yeah, here you go! Be sure to check the credits in the readme file!
