About this mod

I loved Aela's personality, but hated her looks. Here's my fix to that.

WARNING!
Because of how Skyrim works, this mod is only for games, when you haven't seen Aela yet.
If you try to use it with savegame, in which you've already met her, it will cause a "dark face bug".
(The face will have no tattoos, and skin tone will not match the rest of her body.)



v1.0: Nicer appearance for Aela (with new tattoo)
v1.1: New tattoo also available for female Nord player characters
v1.2: Both original and new Aela looks available as female Nord presets (2 new NPCs to avoid Ctrl+F4 bug)
v1.3: Mod split into 3 variants - Reshape, Rework and Sexy; Everything stays the same, except for Aela's looks
v1.4: Tattoo available in all variants, every variant includes all 4 Aela-based presets



Reshape:
- tiny modifications to face sliders
- adjusted lips

Rework:
- tiny modifications to face sliders
- adjusted lips
- new tattoo
- recolored makeup, lipstick and eyes

Sexy:
- tiny modifications to face sliders
- adjusted lips
- new tattoo
- recolored makeup, lipstick and eyes
- hair color changed to brown
- removed freckles to match hair
- a bit darker skin to compensate for lack of freckles



I recommend loading this mod last, so it doesn't get overwritten by Follower Overhauls and other mods.
This mod is quite clean, so it won't override anything unexpected.
The only possible conflicts may arise with other mods that edit Aela specifically.



Plans for very distant future:
Optional compatibility patch for ESF - Aela.
When? Not before it gets voiced, that's for sure (probably in a few years, ask its author). That mod is great, but still very early in development. I'm not using it at the moment, but will someday. Some things are worth waiting for and ESF - Aela is certainly one of them.
