Of course, Skyrim news at the moment is flooded with the awesome new in-game trailer now available (and don’t worry, Skyrim World will be publishing our dissection of it in the very near future), but in the meantime we certainly didn’t want to have this rather neat article overlooked, from the graphics geniuses at Bethesda showing how the amazing detail of Tamriel worlds are sculpted.

Take a read…. or if vertices and heightmaps aren’t your thing, just scan down and check out the pictures – it’s interesting stuff. True, it’s looking back on Oblivion rather than forwards to Skyrim, but nonetheless a reminder of the levels of detail that go into world-building can only raise our expectations of the new game further.!
