My previous note was just after quick testing in the forge. The note below was what I had to say after fully testing this truly beautiful piece of functional artwork! I hope you don't mind that I shared some screenshots even though I'm using the SSE port rather than the original mod. I have the whole collection but this bow is certainly my favorite. I specialize in stealth archery and this bow has not let me down once! Thank You! ""SirJesto, Bravo on an outstanding collection of Redguard arms! As a specialist in stealth archery, the bow is my favorite. I've also taken to carrying a pair of the Shamshir swords as dual wielding daggers (and now Shamshirs) has always been my fallback choice when over run. The bow has become my "go to" of late as I was able the upgrade it to the same level of damage as my other mod bows some of which have ended up in my followers adept hands. All of these bow have been improved to daedric and dragonbone legendary levels so they hit targets like a truck or speeding locomotive! I endorsed day one after install and quick testing in my forge. However, now that I've had the opportunity to put these fine instruments of war through their paces on a grueling day to day basis, I just had to come back and rave some more about how absolutely awesome they are! Thank you for this outstanding collection! I shared a few screenshots today as well. You may recognize the Scorpion Tail bow that my latest lovely companion, Lycan Heart, is wielding from Unique Bows Collection that I installed after you advised that they were not only craftable but also enchantable. I love them as well and carry at least two of them at all times. The Redguard bow is getting the most action lately though as it is as powerful as it is beautiful. The cherry stained wood front compliments my bard's lute finish quite nicely when both are equipped on my back in town and the silvery white engraved back side is highlighted in many recent screenshots as I have it drawn almost continuously. 5 smiley seal of 100% approval!!!!! I endorse and highly recommend this mod! Happy Holidays!!! ""
Just stopped by to say thank you for these awesome creations and for allowing SirJesto to port them into SSE. I also dropped by your main page to leave Kudos as well. Thank you and Happy Holidays!
Hey, great mod! Could you make the arrows longer? I use a mod called Proper Length Arrows http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/5164 so now the redguard arrows look like they're too short in comparison.
Nice detail of the bow, simple yet stunning i love it so much <3 was a warrior type in skyrim but i turn into ranger type because of the bow XD
But i sorta having trouble, i couldn't enchant the bow, i checked grindstone like 3 times to make sure i don't miss it, but the bow's name wasn't there, or is it unenchantable?
Could you please do me a favour and change the name of the bow from "Redguard engraved bow" to "Redguard Engraved Bow"? Yes, I know it's stupid, but I'm sort of OCD when it comes to things like that and it bugs the crap out of me having only one weapon with lower case letters where there should be upper case. I LOVE the boy, but this is bothering me. If you don't feel like fixing it, then can someone tell me how to fix it myself? (Assuming it's possible.)
Open the Skyrim Creation Kit. Double click Skyrim.esm and double click redguard_bow.esp. While redguard_bow.esp is highlighted click the "set as active file" button. Click ok and wait for it to load. Click yes to all when a dialogue box appears, then continue waiting. Once it is loaded up, in the Object Window on the left click Items, then under Items click Weapons. While Weapons is highlighted type Redguard_bow into the filter box and hit enter. Double click the Redguard_bow entry. A window will appear. In the top left corner is where names can be edited. The box labeled ID is the name for the weapon in the creation kit. The box labeled Name directly underneath it is where you'd edit the in-game name. You can also change other things like damage, speed, etc. Once you've made the desired changes click ok, then click file->save or hit the save icon directly beneath "Edit". If you have the game on steam, the creation kit should be under Library->Tools where it is available for download as Skyrim Creation Kit. If you don't have the steam version of Skyrim it should still be available for download under tools as free software.

The bow and custom quiver are truly magnificent!
