About this mod

Improves all aspects of Edward's textures to appear more similar to the concept art shown below. It’s basically an improved version of my old mod.

Permissions and credits
This mod aesthetically enhances most of Edward's textures to appear more accurate to the concept art or promotional art/CG trailers. 
He now has a tan more in line with the art for the game, less darkness around the eyes, a darker hair color, and he now uses the cutscene beard in game. Along with this is the marooned beard, which makes him look even more like the concept art, it looks a bit different with the hair color change though. If you don't like this change feel free to use the vanilla beard files, only change to those is that Edward always uses the cutscene mesh/material.
His main outfit is now based on this concept art, and the haytham outfit is based on this. The Templar armor has been tweaked slightly as well to match the concept art. All other outfit textures following the Kenway/Walpole format have been edited to my tastes and can be seen in the images tab (If a texture looks bad there it's probably been updated since). Edward's hidden blade now has a darker skull like the CG trailer. Bonnet and Hornigold have also been given slightly brighter face textures, I did not make Blackbeard's texture brighter as I feel the only texture edit neccesary is the trailer moustache
I have edited a few weapons, most notably the swords from the promotional art. The Drake pistols now have no engraving, the barrel is slightly altered, the Morgan pistols have been tweaked to be more in line with the promo art pistols, and the Toledo swords now have a brown/brass grip. The 2 lower Wheelock pistols are now the NPC pistols, with the chest pistols being invisible, so you always have the option to remove the chest pistols in game. If you want a permanent solution for that use this.


Mods I reccomend are: Rogue sheathe  Edward's Beta Hair if you hate the ponytail (Note my hair color change won't work with this)
                                          E3 Pistols    


The hair color tweak seems to do something with hair density, I like this look for Edward's beard but some NPCs may suffer from a small bit of baldness.
