Dragonborn Talons Retexture

what gave it away that i'm a furry????

CREDITS

Oricalcon for Talons and Sharps (used the diffuse off Sharps for the toes)
Bloodmoonmods for Dragonborn textures
Khanter and Modiste for advice and troubleshooting

INFO

F ONLY AT THIS TIME we'll get to TBSE/M compatibility. eventually.

I caught the vapors and realized I have 2 hands and can paint. About half of this is using the Dragonborn body diffuse scales, some of it is off Sharps, and probably half of it is hand painted from scratch (with heavy edits to the rest). I also kidnapped my buddy Al and locked her in a basement to help do the actual packaging work and mesh edits because that’s not something in my skillset (thats al with a lowercase L, not an uppercase I. [DONT GET HELIOSPHERE SUBPOENAD] your local datacenter).

This is both a texture edit and a mesh edit. It is not using the base Talons mesh and will not be compatible (probably) with most existing mods affecting the original Talons. You also don’t need Talons installed for this to work because of this, but you should go support Oricalcon too.

Includes all 11 base Dragonborn color variants (Dawntrail Raen, Legacy Raen, Ivory, Bone White, Pure White, True Black, Blue, Vanilla Black, Grey, Legacy Grey, and Bloodmoon), and all four base Dragonborn scale shine options.

I don’t have a tag or anything for if you post gposes on bluesky but if you really really really appreciate the work send me either $0.69 or $4.20 on kofi dot com

KNOWN ISSUES (I WILL CRY IF YOU TELL ME ABOUT THESE IN BUG REPORTS)

• The IVCS mod deforms the ankle bone a little. Just turn that one on for gpose only I guess.

• There’s a small visible seam at the edge. Without either God or BMM themselves intervening this is the best I can do for you. Sorry chat

• Textures kinda crunchy on the normal when you zoom in. This is a limitation of the tools I have available to me as I am not cracked like BMM 💔 I literally made this in Procreate on an ipad 💔

• clips a bit into some gear. pretend you dont see it

• Currently F talls only. We’ll get around to M eventually and update here

Contains PNG files with and without the alpha channel cutout for all diffuses, all variants for scale shine, greyscale diffuse for color editing and customizing, transparent files, and also a handful of the normals I created in the process of this project so you can edit the scale strength and skintone influence to your heart’s content.

Permissions

• if you paywall or vault any edits to this mod, the bible story cain and abel becomes legal to reenact with you playing the part of abel (BMM assets are used in this and this violates their TOS too. Do not the it.). You can make private edits though that’s fine. Also artists/modders are fine to charge for private edits. I love artists being compensated for their time (however in compliance with BMM's ToS, public releases of private commissions must be free)

• Go crazy with edits! The devkit includes a greyscale version in the diffuse folder to make things easier to recolor. Repaint the scales, recolor, add scars and whatever, edit the mesh if you want, etc. Please make sure any edits credit myself, BMM, and Oricalcon as this mod piecemeals stuff from all three.

• If you edit my stuff with AI I can’t legally do anything to you but I am going to hope really hard that you stub your toe in every single doorway you pass through for the rest of your life

• Feel free to make compatibility edits for other bodies if we don’t get around to it. Keep ‘em private or publish them, I don’t mind either way!

• Do not reupload to other mod sites. I have two hands to post this to XMA if I wanted to (I don’t)

• please don’t send me your nsfw foot pics. I’m good without them thanks chat

• Respect the TOS for both OG mod creators whose assets were used for this project (BMM and Oricalcon) please and thank you.
