📋 About This Mod

Some quick edits to simplify some of the face tattoos as I found I liked the style of them but some of them were a bit too much for the style of V I prefer. The tattoos I have edited have removed the scalp portion of the tattoos and some of the part that shows up on V's face (most of the neck tattoos remain the same). They work for both male and female, only the "Corpo" blackout tattoo has to be split between masculine and female faces as they have separate textures so make sure you download the right version for your V. I did darken the Valentino tattoo & tattoo 7 (stars) a bit so they show up better on darker skin tones.

I named the tattoos based on what they are named in the game files not by the in game tattoo #, see attached chart for the vanilla tattoos and the reference #/name to download.

Thank-you so much to Rfuzzo for the CP2077 tools and the modding discord server for helping me with my questions :)
