Alright Motoki, I was browsing the Better Heads, Argonians, and was shocked to see that my favorite eardo did not match any of the new faces! I was wonder if you could recommend a better face? Or add more faces to your mod, whatever...or just replace the hair;  |

Hmm I guess I didn't bother to yank that ear style out. I could always replace it with another Silaria one but I rather liked it. I suppose I could do a quick recolor. Technically, it doesn't much match the Bethesda ones either since none of them are really blue, but they do have some blue in them. It goes well with the blue head Silaria made, as does that blue dorsal fin sort of looking hair, but that's in the playable only heads pack, which if you don't have I would definitely reccomend.  |

Alright then, I just basically get her mod and add those faces as an esp? (maybe in your final BH you will have ALL of her heads?)
BTW: How are the Khajits coming?

It has an esp, but it doesn't replace npcs. I didn't add those other heads because people would have nitpicked and complained they didn't match the bodies  And there's only 6 default Argonians (3 males and 3 females) to add more would mean messing with more individual npc settings which I was reluctant to do. |

Rightly so...I suppose, but that is the reason I am hesitant, I HATE Messing with ESMs...  ...they always seem more important than ESPs and such...maybe a head that kind of matches that to be put in instead or a new hairstyle...that is, IF you will update it, if not, I can live with it!  |

Sorry I'm gonna jump in. Slof made 'Coloured Argonians'. It's a mod that makes female argonians blue and males red. I think the ears might fit well with the blue heads and bodies of the female argonians, but you'd have to play around with it and insert some heads here and body parts there. If you're intrested this is the page with the mod on it: slofshive.caesium2.com//index.php?page=projects&action=view_article&id=1075419146You have to scroll down a little bit. |

Yes, I have seen it, but I like the bodies how they are...and messing with them is not something I have time for...worst case, I'll just replace the ears, best case, I'll make an extended Argonian version of BH (private, no public release...don't wnat to insult such an exquisite mod)...

I can't load that site, it's really slow for me. I'd love to have new Argonian body textures, not just recolored Bethesda ones either, nicer high res ones. I gave it a shot and it, well did not turn out well It seems like no one else is up to the task either.  |

I wonder Motoki...maybe when the Khajits are released, you could make the Argonians have a few more heads? (yes it is a pain, I could go through the game for you if you want...), but it would really make it alot more diverse...or just correct that one hair texture...nothing major, I can do it myself, but you know...the public... ;D

I'll see. The thing is there really aren't any more Argonians in colors that don't clash with the body. I had wanted someone to do a nice new Argonian body texture possibly in a more neutral tone, but like I said I don't think anyone else is willing or able. |

Well, I'm willing and sort of able...but no where near the time to do it...sorry, you do realize though that your best bet would be to make a neck mesh that blends from the body to the head...or make the head somehow reach lower and cover part or all of the neck? Know what I mean...each head has it's own neck....sort of?

She said she won't and even if she does we can easily recolor it. Recoloring is not hard once the actual pattern is done. She also said she's going to release the Photoshop source PSD file with the layers so we can recolor the scales without recoloring the lighter chest and belly part.

Thats very kind of her...hmm, will she alter the mesh at all (I hope not, better bodies and cothes all over again...  ); but in my experience/opinion, she's a very good texturer... |
