Special animations for grabbing objects

So I've noticed how in FO3/NV and Oblivion/Skyrim, when you grab objects, third-person view reveals that your character isn't actually grabbing the objects. Now, that's not too severe of an immersion-killer. But I thought it'd be neat to take advantage of the fact that you don't physically use your hand to grab objects. There are all kinds of other futuristic devices in the Fallout universe, such as Stealth Boys. Why not have a purely cosmetic device that emits telekinetic fields around your hands and the object you're grabbing when you grab objects? You would really only be lifting them normally, but it'd give the illusion of using the telekinetic device to lift them.

 

I was also inspired by the wonderful Liara T'soni playermodel mod by DeviantArt user Isquall. I thought it'd be cool to be Liara walking around lifting corpses with her biotic abilities (Mass Effect fans, anyone?).

 

If no one else is interested in taking the reigns on this, could someone share with me some tips on how to start? I'm not much of a modder, so I could use a push in the right direction. But if someone who already has experience with modding decides to carry out the idea, that's great, too.
