Need some help with an Undead race...

So I've been working with creation kit, and figured it might be fun to try adding in a new (playable) race of Undead. I basically designed it off of a Breton with different abilities and bonuses, which worked (as I wanted them to be spellcasters... Liches, basically). The problematic part came down to the actual character body/head. I replaced the Breton body with a Draugr body, because I'm too lazy for retexes and I like the Draugr's design for it anyway. This much worked, until it came to the head, which had some major issues that I'm not completely sure how to fix. Being new to the modding community, I just wanted to see if anybody could help me out with this, or if anyone could point me to an existing mod i could use instead?

there is no morph race for draugr, their heads/faces are the same

 

set morph race to none

armor race to draugr

 

you'll still have to create 1st person animations or use something that doesn't look like a draugr, you'll have to make all the armor work with the draugr, etc

 

it's a lot easier to take a breton and make it a different type of breton, or one that looks similar but with different skin color, height, etc

 

making a playable race out of something that isn't in the game is a lot more work
