📋 About This Mod
Yes we all know them, the Dragon Priests and the Ice Wraiths and of course we all like them. But for me they always had a look like they were a little bit washed out. But now after I have been working on those Guys I am finally ready and would like to Share them with you all.
This is a High Quality Texture Redone in 4k Resolution = 4096x4096 for the Dragonpriests
The Ice Wraiths were completey Retextured and added with a little bit more Glowing so they will also stand out a little bit more and have a little bit more 3D Effect. Colours and Contrast has been improved.
This one is absolutely Lore Friendly since there are no new or any Strange Textures added.
I have completely Retextured the Dragon Priest and worked also a little Bit on the Contrast to make it stand out and give a little more 3D Effect.
I have also worked a little bit on the Dragonpriest Weapons this means the Dragonpriest Knife and their Staff. I worked on the Contrast and did some Colorwork on them too. The Weapons are in 2k Resolution but will also stand out now a little Bit more with 3D effect.
UPDATE: Now there is also a Red Glowing Version of the Ice Wraiths - ( My Friends call them Blood Wraiths cause of the Color ) Check the Screenshots
The Dragonpriest is also Completely Redone now and is available in 2K version ( So many Requests to make them in 2K) - Improved as usual ! Check the Screenshots ! Enjoy
PLEASE ENDORSE ME IF YOU LIKE IT !!!
I know there are some Draonpriest Retextures here, but I was still missing some Contrast and Colours for my taste. I didn't steel nobodys work. All Textures where extracted from the Skyrim Textures.bsa and me only worked on them.
So if you like it try it.
Also take a look at my other Mods.
How to Install:

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 3,746 endorsements
- High-res textures make these enemies look sharper
- Two resolution options let you balance quality and performance
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2013, so may not work with the latest Skyrim patches
- Only covers two enemy types, so it's a niche visual upgrade
For Skyrim players who want better-looking Ice Wraiths and Dragon Priests without overhauling the whole game. If you're a texture enthusiast or just want these specific enemies to look less dated, this is a solid pick. Skip if you're looking for broader visual changes or play on a version released after 2013.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, you can install this directly and let it handle file placement.
- Choose the 2k version if you're on a lower-end PC to avoid performance hits.
- Since it's an old mod, check if your Skyrim version is compatible; if not, look for a similar newer retexture.
