As far as i know intermarrige do exist but yes, majority of Estonians aren't mixed or assimilated.
Usually you can tell estonians and russians apart, but overlap in looks exist, which is pretty logical considering that we're neighbours and have a lot of genetical similarities.

Im currently living abroad and really missing Estonia! I miss how simple it is to live there.. no bs. Things get done pretty fast. Everything is done online. I am constantly amazed by what people from other countries do not have that we do!
There is a thread called "Estonian people" or something where I have posted a lot of pictures of Estonians. No Estonian-Russians. I wouldnt rely on information from non-Estonians in that regard. Theres also an Estonian music thread.

Believe? They are invaders. The Tsars invaded Estonia, the Soviets invaded Estonia and brought in Russian settlers without any permission from Estonians. What else can that be called?
You have the biggest country in the world and you have the audacity to call someone a Nazi because they don't want your people threatening their homogeneity and national unity? They don't even give a crap about your sub-race(their mistake), they just want Russians to learn the language and assimilate.
The racial stock of Estonians is a lot different now from what it would've been during the middle-ages or when it was ruled by the Swedes or the two German Holy Orders that held land there. Russians started settling there when Russia conquered it in the 1700s, not only during Soviet times, although settling increased a lot via the Soviets. Latvia and Lithuania got it even worse than Estonia, especially Lithuania that had a lot of Jews and Tatars even before the Soviets. The Baltics were usually the richest and most industrialized places in Russia, so people wanted to come. I don't see why Estonia/Latvia wouldn't be as rich as Finland today if it wasn't for the foreign incursions(Russians didn't settle Finland en masse and Finland had a lot of autonomy during Russian rule, who didn't rule them for that long anyway). Actually, even the Northern Russians(who didn't really consider themselves different from southern/central Russians, regardless, they were, like the Republic of Novgorod which didn't have Mongol colonization) were largely affected by other Russian migration, especially because of the Soviets, they brought in tons of southern Russians to the north and I'm not only talking about St. Petersburg.

The Guanche skulls as a whole are unlike those of modern European Mediterraneans, and resemble northern European series most closely, especially those in which a brachycephalic element is present, as in Burgundian and Alemanni series.oldschool anthropologydivided them into clearly differentiated types, which include a Mediterranean, a Nordic, a "Guanche," and an Alpine. The "Guanche" accounts for 50 per cent of the whole on the four islands of Teneriffe, Gomera, Gran Canaria, and Hierro; the Nordic for 31 per cent, the Mediterranean for 13 per cent, and the Alpine
