So I thought I might put this up for those curious.

So here is what I'm talking about.

That's awesome, I was really annoyed that you could only wear one ring, maybe my next mod attempt will be to fix that, maybe add some earrings :P.

I was just checking this right now because I was wondering looking for a way to add tattoos without making your own race or replacing the body texture.

There are 31 slots for all the races and it's quite impressive how it actually works. You can name each one separately on the Race menu >

For humanoid races (shown in op's screenshot), the 12 first (#30 - #43))are fixed and #50 & #51 are used for the decapitation (They could have added dismemberement then) and #61 is for body FX (oakflesh, poison, etc...)

So if one was to make a mod to add body tattoos in the game, I'd suggest using one of the available slot AND naming it for all characters. For example, take #60 and name it Tattoo for all the humanoid races.

I think it should be decided among the community of modders which slot should be used for what, though I'm pretty sure the first one to grab a slot will make people use it like him/her

 

But those slots are also available for monsters, so if you want to add a body armor to a bear you can. If you make a monster follower and want it to equip an armor, you can (if you add the dialog)

 

Additional note :

#40 Tail for argonian and khajiit

#43 Ears for Khajiit

You could potentially build a mod to reintroduce Morrowind style armour parts. Awesome.

I can just see it now: A mod that allows you to forge custom armor for your dog.

 

 

Daedric Doggy armor FTW!

 

EDIT: This just hit me after I posted this: Actual Horse armor! Forge-able Horse armor made from any material that you can use to craft Humanoid armor with. :dance: I am so not kidding either. I would totally download a mod that adds Forge-able dog and horse armor like that.
