- Description
- 3 different sets, female only. These armors do not require a nude body mod (unless you want nipples showing):
- Ebony - craftable
- Ebony Mail - Boethiah\'s Calling Quest -- You can add the Ebony Mail armor in console \"player.additem 52794 1\"
- Nightingale - Thieve\'s Guild Quest
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Female Ebony armor with transparency alpha and skin/body mesh.
- It is playable as an alpha version but there is some clipping on NPCs when her head is turned to the extreme left/right. There is some clipping at arm straps on player characters.
- Female Nightingale armor with transparency alpha and skin/body mesh.
- Female Ebony Mail armor, with blue satin lace corset. Less revealing, short top. I had to use the same mesh for both cuirassf_1.nif and cuirassf_0.nif so the weight slider won\'t work very well on this one but there\'s far less clipping.

- This file is now free to use and/or modify within Nexus community, just credit me as applicable.
- If anyone needs the psd for any of these mods so they can alter or correct them just send me a message.
- Note about clipping issues: Clipping is where the body mesh shows through the armor mesh. For now there\'s not a lot that I can fix until the Skyrim Blender files are done. Some of them can be worked around by entering console command ~showracemenu then moving the weight slider.

📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge download count (133k+) shows it's a beloved classic for fans of revealing armor.
- Nearly 2,000 endorsements—clearly a community favorite for those who want a sexy twist on vanilla gear.
- Simple concept: just lace textures on three iconic armor sets, no complex mechanics to mess with.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2012—likely hasn't been tested with Skyrim Special Edition or Anniversary Edition, so expect compatibility issues.
- The 'sexy' aesthetic isn't for everyone—if you want lore-friendly or practical armor, this isn't it.
🎯 Is This For You?

💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this mod is from 2012, it's built for the original Skyrim (Legendary Edition). If you're on Special Edition, you'll need to convert the meshes with a tool like Cathedral Assets Optimizer.
- Check the mod's file structure—if it's just textures, you can drop them into your Data folder manually. If it includes meshes, make sure you back up the originals.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to keep track of overwrites, especially if you have other armor mods that touch the same sets.
