Cleaned and Restored Classic Mithril Retexture

My first mod! Worked for quite a while on it. Retextures the Mithril armor to be more like the colors present in the original Oblivion. And cleans the excessive dirt.

Despite the good look of the Mithril armor in the remaster, I find it to be sorely lacking in that "ethereal", graceful, Tolkien-esque elven style that the original design was clearly trying to emulate. So I sat down and brightened, cleaned, recolored, and added a glistening blue-ish hue to the metallics of the Mithril set, as well as desaturating and cleaning all the golden bits. The leather of the skirt is now a reddish leather, which is closer to the original, which I hope will pair nicely with some hoods. I also added proper turnshoe soles with visible hobnails, rather than the featureless flat brown texture of the original soles.

(I'm overall extremely pleased with the remaster, aside from a handful of color and design changes that I feel lose sight of the original Old-blivion artist's intentions. No shade towards the wonderful artists at Virtuos, things like this are an inevitability when remastering a game.

In no way do I consider my color palette superior, just a classic colored alternative for those who prefer it. I'm also a real sucker for nostalgia.)

This is version 1. 0, I've yet to do the shield as well, I will update the mod as soon as I've retextured it.

You may notice that the belt and some parts of the leather on the boots are a smidge too shiny in certain lighting, I will update them with a rougher leather map once I figure out how to make . NNRM files play nice, and I'll also be redoing the skirt to be more fabric instead of leather. I also plan to learn mesh editing over the coming days to make minor tweaks such as reducing the shoulder size and adding a leather collar to make it even more like the classic design and concept art. (Exposed necks bother me)

Installation:

Same as any other texture mod, place the three files within "steam\steamapps\common\Oblivion Remastered\OblivionRemastered\Content\Paks\~mods"

If you do not have a "~mods" folder, go ahead and make one.
