GILDED CHAMPION
A HIMBO Body Preset
--------------
My personal HIMBO preset that I use for my characters, a little less "bodybuilder" and more "olympic swimmer" if you will.
It also includes a "clothed" variant that you can use if you feel some outfits deform too much with the regular version.
Weight variation is there but it's subtle. Screenshots were taken mostly between 60-70 weight.
Yo, what's that skin mod?
It's an unholy mashup of various textures I've been adding to over the years and can't share because of permissions.
If you want something with a similar vibe, I highly recommend BnP Male Skin with "less veiny" normals.
I also recommend The New Gentleman for a streamlined alternative to SOS.

Thanks to Krieste and Novelyst for their work on HIMBO

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 437 endorsements
- Solid download count (18,445) shows real usage
- Naturalistic proportions fit a grounded aesthetic
⚠️ Cons
- Requires HIMBO V5, so you're locked into that body mod

- Compatibility risk with other body mods or presets that alter the same meshes
For Skyrim players who use HIMBO and want a leaner, more realistic male body without over-the-top muscles. Skip if you prefer bulky or stylized bodies, or if you don't use HIMBO.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have HIMBO V5 installed first, then drop the preset into your Bodyslide presets folder.
- Use Bodyslide to preview the preset on your character before building, so you can see the proportions in-game.
- If you're using a mod manager, install via your manager to keep track of files and avoid overwriting other presets.
