LE NORMAL hair mod - looking for modders

[09jlardinois]

I would really like to see a hair overhaul that is not geared towards anime (totally immersion breaking), or creepy women-lust.

It seems all of the hair, eye, lips, body, and race mods are geared towards creepy obsessions with naked animated women.

I get plenty in real life, thanks, I'd rather have mods to give my character more beards, better mustaches and facial hairs, totally bad*ss scars that can be earned through quests, manly hair with braids adorned with skulls and sabrecat teeth.

I want a bad*ss character, not some ultra feminine anime hot shot strutting around my Frostfall mod in skimpy clothing. A nord is a warrior, not a pole dancer.

If someone would like to make this mod with me, I need a modeler. I can do the rest myself, although help would be great.

Let's bring bring some manliness back to Skyrim. Nords get bonuses for drinking nord mead, men get bonuses for drinking lagers and stouts - a total beer overhaul. I really need to see more balls on the nexus.

If skimpy anime ninjas are your thing, then go forth and enjoy the mods already on the nexus, I don't and I won't judge you. I used to have similar mods when I played oblivion. But skyrim is a harsh, wild, unrefined land of raw and terrible beauty. so let's make it manlier. I've changed my mind on women-geared / nude mods.

I want to make a mod with new male body models, muscle adjustments, better long hair, braided hair, and shaved heards, better beards, a separate mustache slider/choose, overhauled scarring system, frightening eyes, and some nice, bushy eyebrows to bring it all together. I want to add a multiple-scar system and the ability to scar the top of bald/shaved heads. scars on necks as well. there should be a way to add body scars too - and the ability to decorate your braids and weapons with small war trophies you earn through main quests and radiant quests.

for example, throughout the creation kit tutorial, the quest features the player invading a necromancer tomb and killing a draugr boss summoned by the necromancers. killing these necromancers would yield a small, jewel adorned skill that could be tied to a braid or placed over the hilt of your sword, or fashioned to the front of your shield.

Yeah ! I'd love something like a more realistic hair mod too,I mean Apachii is a great mod,but for people who like that kind of stuff, I personally would LOVE to see a mod with more real life looking hairstyles for males especially , I mean I almost always in games play a shorter haired character,but in Skyrim,other than the bald cuts and very little hair,there are NO shorter hairs,but it straight goes into the long wild manes :)

,but in Skyrim,other than the bald cuts and very little hair,there are NO shorter hairs,but it straight goes into the long wild manes :smile:

definitely agree with that. I personally shave my head to an 1/8" cut, so some cool shaved / short hairs in Skyrim would be cool.

 

My ME2/3 character always has a shaved head :D

I agree. There are a few hairstyles on nexus which do this, but far too few.

[Christi7an]

I agree with you man. I didn't really like any of the vanilla hairstyles much, but all other hair mods I've seen out there are far worse than vanilla in my opinion. For example, the Apachii Skyhair mod. I'm not saying it's a bad mod... I respect the modder for putting in the effort and there are many people who appreciate it, but as you said, it looks out of place, ugly (the textures - excessively glossy and smooth), and lore-unfriendly (especially the anime ones).
I really want more decent looking vanilla-style short hair for males (and females), but after much searching, haven't found such a mod.

I too would like for this to happen. For now all there is, is Vanilla Hair Variety mod. Look it up, type in "Vanilla Hair" in the search on the site, it will show up. It has different hairstyles, but not many. The author of the mod basically remeshed some of the original hairstyles from the game and made them standalone, instead of replacers. He was working on more, but I don't know what happened as it's been a while since it's been updated last I checked.

Can't agree more on every point.

[AuroraMoon]

Yeah, I wouldn't mind male-only hair mods. there are tons out there for women, but very little for men. Which is totally bizzare snice men have plenty of real-life hairstyles to pick from too... women aren't the only gender with vareity when it comes to clothing and hair!

When when I look up the different short hairstyles, all of them are distictly different in their own way even if some of them look simlar.
