📋 About This Mod
Introduction:
The basic ELF male head model has been modified to diminish the facial folds, cheekbones, and brow bones, and to fine-tune the overall shape to make it more aesthetically pleasing to me personally, while retaining some of the facial racial features.
This mod is only compatible with my own aesthetics and may not conform to the official settings.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 247 endorsements and nearly 20k downloads—clearly hits a chord for many players.
- Simple cosmetic tweak that doesn't require gameplay changes—just drop it in and enjoy smoother elf faces.
- Retains racial identity, so your elf still looks like an elf, just with softer features.
⚠️ Cons
- Author admits it's tuned to personal taste—what looks good to them might not suit everyone's vision.
- No screenshots or detailed previews in the description, so you're going in blind unless you test it yourself.
- Last updated July 2025—likely fine for current Skyrim versions, but no explicit compatibility notes for mods that alter head meshes.
For Skyrim players who find the default male elf faces too rugged or angular and want a smoother, more refined look without overhauling the whole race. Skip if you prefer the original sharp features or want more dramatic changes—this is a subtle cosmetic tweak.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, install this as a regular mod and let it overwrite the base head mesh—no extra steps needed.
- Check for conflicts with other mods that alter elf head meshes (like body or face overhauls); load order matters, so place this after those to ensure it takes effect.
- Since it's a mesh replacer, you can easily test it by creating a new elf character or using the console to change your character's race.
