Happy 10 years of Fallout: New Vegas!

New Updates

Altered Tabitha's headgear to work with the new nightkin face.

This is a smaller project I've been working on an off for a little while now. The super mutants we find in the Mojave Wasteland are remnants of the mutants we encountered in Fallout 1 & 2, but they just look like a greener version of the mutants we find in DC. Here's my redesign of the super mutants taking inspiration from the classic fallout games.

This is just a mesh replacer for some of the super mutant models. No esp files, not compatible with other mods that replace the super mutant models.

Highly recommend you download this retexture to go along with it
