📋 About This Mod

Disclaimer:

(This disclaimer is here to set expectations - like most, modding is something I do for free and for fun.)

Hi everyone, and thanks for your interest in my mod!

I've been part of the modding community since the early ’90s and a TES fan since Morrowind. I create mods first and foremost for myself—to suit my own tastes, playstyle, and ideas. I don’t build around what I think others might want, and I’m absolutely not aiming to please people.

I do not make mods for money, public approval, or download counts. This is a labor of love and a passion I’ve had for many years. I update and amend things in my own way, on my own time, and in my own space.

As a result, When I share my work publicly you’re essentially getting a look at my vision. Feedback is always welcome if it’s constructive and polite, but I’m under no obligation to update, rework, or change my mods to match someone else’s expectations.

Please note, I am not a studio and work alone. Most of my earlier mods were never intended for release, so they may lack polish or features. 

Quite simple, adds HDT to the tassle/plume on the orc armor helmet. no fuss or nonsense.

obviously will require HDT.

The armor in the video is not included. It's a modified variant of Orc armor which i've added fur to for khajiits.
