📋 About This Mod

YOU NEED THE HIGH POLY HEAD MOD INSTALLED

NOTE: about the pictures, focus especially on the geometry/mesh, I use a custom bijin texture setup that you probably don't have! (for better or worse...)

Long story short, I interpolated the data between the original facegendata mesh and the highpolyhead mesh. It is not an artistic recreation inspired by bijin. I only cleaned up the result of the interpolation (fixed neck seams, fixed clipping brows, smoothed edges out, this sort of thing)

I can't wait to see your opinion on this, if you guys think it looks good enough, I might convert bijin npc and bijin wives also.

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

This mod converts the popular Bijin NPC overhaul series (Warmaidens, NPCs, Wives) to use HighPoly heads, improving facial geometry for a more detailed look. It's a cosmetic upgrade for Skyrim players who already use Bijin mods and want sharper, more modern head meshes. With 277 endorsements and 21,435 downloads, it's a niche but well-received conversion.

✨ Key Features

Converts Bijin Warmaidens, Bijin NPCs, and Bijin Wives to HighPoly head meshes.
Improves facial geometry for more detailed and realistic NPC appearances.
Requires the original Bijin mods as a base.
Compatible with other Bijin-related mods that use the same head parts.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community-approved with 277 endorsements and over 21k downloads.
  • Enhances the already popular Bijin mods with better head geometry.
  • Simple conversion that doesn't overhaul other aspects of NPCs.

⚠️ Cons

  • Requires the original Bijin mods, so it's not standalone.
  • May conflict with other mods that alter the same NPC head meshes.
  • Last updated in 2022, so it might not be compatible with the latest Skyrim versions or other mod updates.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who already use the Bijin NPC overhauls and want to push visual fidelity further with HighPoly heads. If you're not using Bijin mods, this isn't for you. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes—this is purely cosmetic.
📦 Install:Medium· 5-10 minutes

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure you have the original Bijin mods installed first, as this conversion builds on them.
  • Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to handle the file overwrites properly.
  • Check your load order to ensure this mod loads after the Bijin mods to avoid conflicts.
