📋 About This Mod

Once upon a time I did a makeover for Lucien. It was alright.

This one is better.

But you can still download the old one here in optional files if you still prefer that look.

This is a new high poly sculpt converted from his old low-poly version, and extensively refined. Because the process of converting a low poly nif to a high poly one is so weird and tricky, it's not as perfect as I would have hoped. As a result, Lucien will probably have a neck seam/gap towards the back due to the LP/HP warping. I can't seem to fix this, I'm sorry. But, I personally don't consider it a deal breaker. Just give him a scarf or something, it's cold out. His weight has been changed from 0 to 10 as was the previous version, so you will get a small seam if you load him in an existing game. You can probably get rid of (most of the weight-related) seam by clicking on him in console, disable, then enable. But again, scarves are your friend.

Intended for use with Expressive Facial Animations. Lucien comes with included textures: Beard, Eyebrows, Eyes, and rough skin detail. He DOES NOT INCLUDE main skin textures for compatibility reasons. Shown with Dizona, I recommend this or Tempered Skin (least rough/aged). He looks okay with Vitruvia too, Skysight seems a little too rough and aged for him. If you're up for learning, I would encourage you to learn how to make a skin texture "armor" for him specifically so that he can have whatever distinct look you want. Or use something like Zebd/SynthEBD to choose his skin texture.
