1. 4: Mesh fixes for most mod

This is a conpendium of models I made in the style of my previous mod, Dragon Models Modernized and Redesigned. All the models will look better if you use any of the skeleton models I provided here.

I'll try to keep this page as simple as posible. All the models have textures 2x or 4x the size of the originals; cleaned and AI upscaled. Most dragons use the original texture work by the original authors, so please be sure to endorse their mods.

The main goal of my models is to give the dragons in the game a brand new 3D model and 8K textures, with a modern, more intimidating, and much smoother and high poly look (70. 000 triangles compared to vanilla's 15. 000). Inspired by vanilla game, dragon age, and Jurassic park. The main differences are more dinosaurian and cinematic look, with mouths full of teeth, sealed mouths, more robust, more beliable proportions, bigger horns, less spikes, and HD glowy eyes.

Last but not least, many thanks to Wolflady500 for her help with some of the diverse dragons collection models. It is much appreciated!

1) Diverse Dragons collection. Requires the main mod.
