[ [ [ MOD DESCRIPTION ] ] ]

If you're like me and have been disappointed with the vanilla Gargoyles, then this mod is for you.  This mod replaces the vanilla Gargoyle skeleton with a new custom skeleton meant to give the Gargoyles of Skyrim a more proportional, realistic and terrifying appearance. Working within the confines of the vanilla mesh, I enlarged the limbs and made several subtle changes to the Gargoyles, and the result is a Gargoyle that will startle, terrify and immerse you even more into the world of Skyrim. This affects all Gargoyles in Skyrim.

Seeing is believing!!!
