📋 About This Mod
Required mods: none Recommended mods: New Beast Bodies (see below)
Complete mesh and texture overhaul for male and female Argonians. Design and colors are based on Skyrim's vanilla Argonians. All default Arognian heads have been replaced with the new meshes and there are a couple additional heads to choose from. Male and female hair/horns have also been reworked to fit the new meshes and include new textures based on their counterparts from Skyrim.
- body retexture requires New Beast Bodies:
- Mature Version: http://mw.modhistory.com/download-10-11364

The heads will work without NBB but my body textures will only work if you have one of the above mods installed.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 1,369 endorsements and over 62k downloads.
- Stays true to vanilla Argonian design, so it blends seamlessly with the game.
- Covers both head and body for males and females—one mod does it all.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2016—might not be compatible with newer Skyrim versions or mods.
- Purely cosmetic—no gameplay changes, so if you want new mechanics, look elsewhere.
For Skyrim players who want a more polished, consistent look for Argonians without straying from the vanilla style. If you're a completionist who likes to overhaul every race's appearance, this is a solid pick. Skip if you're looking for gameplay tweaks or a more radical redesign.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a replacer, make sure no other mod overwrites the same Argonian meshes—check your load order.
- Use a mod manager like Nexus Mod Manager or Mod Organizer 2 to easily uninstall if you want to revert.
- If you use body mods like CBBE or SOS, this may conflict—test with a new game or save.
