📋 About This Mod

UPDATE: There seems to be some issues with Camera mods and the animations causing the player character to have the wrong camera positions. After trouble shooting, I think the problem may be due to the rig I use currently not having a Camera node. Not sure if this is fixable so I've uploaded a version that restricts these animations to NPCs only. 

Second mod in the Feminize series!

Female Crafting Animations!!

Look, I get that blacksmithing is tough. It probably takes a lot of stamina and you have to put your back into it. But that's no excuse to look like a roided-up chimp while doing it! Similar to my Turning Animations mod, these animations seek to bring a little more finesse and consistency to vanilla animations!

Disclaimer: I only tested these animations on my already very buggy, 1300 mod game, and I did get a few small visual glitches, but I am not sure if these were already in my game or there's something wrong with the animations. It might be nothing, but if something looks odd, let me know and I will try to fix it. 

Requirements:

DAR - A few people asked why I use DAR instead of just replacing the vanilla animations directly, it's mainly because I'm used to using DAR, and it has the benefit of not having to run Nemesis (Or FNIS). I might in the future make a direct replacer version, or you can do it yourself since it should be very easy to do.

Various Idle animations, including Behind the Counter animations, browsing goods, thinking, reading, and more.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community favorite with 1,379 endorsements and over 213k downloads—clearly a lot of players dig it.
  • Covers all the main crafting stations, so you get a consistent feminine touch across Alchemy, Enchanting, Smithing, Tanning, and Cooking.
  • Lightweight animation replacer—no gameplay changes, just visual flair for female characters.

⚠️ Cons

  • Only affects female characters; male characters keep the default animations, so if you play a male, this mod does nothing for you.
  • Last updated in August 2022, so it might not be fully compatible with the latest Skyrim updates or other animation mods that alter the same files.
  • Potential conflicts with other animation mods that modify crafting animations—you'll need to manage load order or patch.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who want their female characters to have more graceful, feminine crafting animations. If you're into immersion and character customization, this is a nice touch. Skip if you play male characters or if you're looking for gameplay changes—this is purely cosmetic.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, just download and install—it's a simple file drop, no extra setup.
  • Make sure to place this mod after other animation mods in your load order to ensure it takes priority.
  • Since it's an animation replacer, it should work with most setups, but if you see clipping, check for conflicts with other animation mods.
