Mod help, texture issue after blender

So I just decided I would try making my first mod this week. As I've never really done any modding myself ever before I decided to try something simple, like changing a two-handed axe into a one-handed axe. All went well after I grasped the basics of NifSkope and the results were better than I expected.

 

 

 

Everything worked smoother than I could've hoped, it sheathes at the side, collision is spot-on, all textures A-OK - even blood textures.

Only problem was that it clipped into the view in 1st-person, and it just looks way too big, so the next step would be to scale it down a bit.

After quickly realizing this would just end in tears through NifSkope, so then I went and learned the basics of Blender. It wasn't really too compicated to learn how to scale the meshes and remove simple parts.

 

 

 

As a start I decided to tweak with the Dragonbone Waraxe and simply exchange the "staff" with the two-handed battle-axe's and then move on from there. To make this staff fit however I needed to move the hilt and head of the one-handed axe seperately (because those to were "joined", so to speak. So I exported the hilt&head mesh into an .obj file, imported into Blender, deleted the vertices for the head-piece, then exported the file again. I did just the same another time, but this time I deleted the vertices for the hilt.

I now had two seperate .obj files, one for the hilt and one for the head. Everything alsmost seemed too simple. I then imported each file back into NifSkope and positioned them correctly.

 

As you can see on the image above, the hilt looks just the way it's supposed to, but the head's textures are kinda warped. The picture under shows the other side, and you can see it's missing texture completely, so I figured there was a problem with double-sided textures.

I've tried checking off double-sided texture in Blender and added a NiStencilProperty to the .nif in NifSkope. This was really the only tip I could find to similar problems and so I decided to check with you guys for any possible solutions.

 

 

 

Any help, tips or feedback would be greatly appreciated! :D
