📋 About This Mod

New 2. 0 version revamped HD version using Sotha Sil texture from Intelligent Textures 2. 1, vanilla version remains the same. Special thanks to Remiros for it!

Description:

Sotha Sil is the saddest god in the whole TES universe, not only that you can't ahem interact with him, Bethesda also didn't even give him a proper unique face, they just took the face texture of corprus stalker then slapped on his already sad and miserable face. And then years later, even though we have mods that make Vivec and Almalexia look like Kim Kardashian and the like, no one still bother to give poor old Sotha some love.

Sotha Sil is a Dunmer is a simple edit to his texture, it mostly remains the same but Sotha Sil's skin is now Dunmer-like with the iconic red eyes, I

also changed the shape of his eyebrows so it looks more elven. I'm not very excellent at texture editing, it's not much but I figured it's better than his abomination vanilla face. This is initially an optional file for my HD Vanilla Textures but as there are now better upscaled textures out there, I think it deserves its own place and I also used a better upscaled texture as a base and reworking it from there.

There are 2 versions: HD and Vanilla, both are in the same file. HD version is for people who use Intelligent Textures or other texture packs, Vanilla version is for vanilla purists because PURITY!!!
