First of all my original plan was to replace the original Griffon Mail mesh, however, for some reason it's impossible. So the only way for me to get it into the game was to replace another; which I chose to be the Dragon armour as that is only equipable by the player, so I assume no NPC's use it and therefore there won't be any immersion issues down the line (I haven't actually played the game much).

Meshwise, I shrunk the back portion of the armour as much as I could specifically to minimise clipping with my Blade of Tidarion greatsword mod (Skeleton edits are not possible at this time so this is the only way AFAIK). Re-textured Diffuse, Normal, Specular and Tint maps too; all leather parts are now tintable and look much more realistic. Cloth parts and some metal bits are also re-textured to look better. Replaced the ridiculous chainmail parts with the Gambeson theme that already exists in the outfit as I feel it looks more realistic and overall flows better.

Special thanks to Padme (Gina) and Dmitrias for their help with troubleshooting my mesh problems in Frosty. This mod would not have been possible without them and I'm very grateful for all their help and patience.

Update (2021-04-20):
Replaced original Griffon Mail texture maps with the new ones. Replaced the Dragon Armour for Human Female as well. (Haven't been able to test these in-game so if there are any bugs with textures or the mesh please upload a screenshot).

Update (2021-04-28):
Version 1.2; Re-mapped the bottom-back portion of the tunic to mirror the front as I hate middle seams when it comes to cloth textures. Not a perfect job as I didn't want to add more vertices, but errors are tiny and shouldn't be noticeable unless extremely zoomed in. I may re-visit this in the future if the errors really bother me.
