📋 About This Mod

NvYMVqyoYTQ

The artisans of Whiterun carved some nice ornaments on the Gildergreen tree!

That, or just the basic retexture, select with the FOMOD installation.

Resolution it's only 1k/2k this time!

It looks good don't worry.

Why? Because the way the mesh uses the texture, beyond that would be overkill, and 99% of the time you just don't stare at it so close your nose touches it :)
