📋 About This Mod
A direct model replacer for Gray Cowl of Nocturnal, changing it to look more like Bust of the Gray Fox seen in Skyrim. Comparison image included.
Contains both new .nif and .egm files, so should fit to facegen.
Disclaimer: model is shaped for humanoid head and will clip with beast races - nothing I can do about that. In fact, avoiding clipping with beast heads is probably the reason original model is so bulky.
A compact cosmetic mod that alters the appearance of the Gray Cowl of Nocturnal to resemble its Skyrim counterpart. With 510 endorsements and over 109k downloads, it's a popular choice for players seeking a more familiar look. Last updated in 2020, it remains a simple, effective visual tweak.
