At first glance I thought you made her a male lol. but upon closer inspection you've done an outstanding job. Her face looks very realistic and the warpaint is very nice, subtle, not over the top. currently I use Bijin Warmaidens, but now I'm leaning twards using this, it's nice to see a mod maker give the female warriors of skyrim a tuff but still beautiful look other then "barbie/ supermodel" Well done!
I thought the same thing about the sex change when I first viewed the pic too. I applaud the work done, but think might have gone a bit far in that direction. As far as barbie doll goes, I've found that you're going to have something of that effect no matter what face you use, if the body is still your standard CBBE or 7Base. I use the latter one myself, but for this character to look right, she's going to need a more muscular/athletic body style.
Nicely done! Based on the first two images I had the same reaction as everyone did, but upon looking at the other images I see you've succeeded in creating a face both strong and feminine. Agree with maxx130 on the warpaint - you nailed it. Should fit nicely with Rayya's default voice. Looking forward including her in my next game. Many thanks, LazyAltmer
@ObsydianShade The body is going to be whatever the default female body is in you game: the download contains only facegen data and an esp.
I really think Lazy hit the mark TBH in the conan movie there's a Nubian warrior who this NPC reminds me of i think played by Grace Jones or slick can't really remeber. But she was slim and muscular and similar hair(shaved sides cropped close on top) but looked the part very much but was strikingly beautiful at the same time.
I'm going to see if I can add some more screenshots that are more clearly female. (I don't use skimpy armors or such, so I'll see what I can find that's still lore-friendly.)
...if the rest of you thinks this Rayya looks masculine I think it must be an eternity since you played a vanilla play-through; I thought I was getting a male housecarl when I first encountered her in the vanilla game in Falkreath and, imagine my disappointment at that, when I have always thought redguards had such potential to be Skyrim hotties. So, one of my first tasks to do when I decided to mod my game was to find some proper Rayya replacer. I checked Bijin and she had been morphed into another caucasian pin-up which is sorta pointless even if you like alot of eye-candy because variety is the spice of life... And now, I find she has been realized with just some minor tweaks to transform her into "another Grace Jones"... Are you kidding me? Grace Jones (super-model and Bond-girl) complete with bad-ass mohican as my Falkreath housecarl and potential steward for my Lakeview manor - I'LL BUY THAT FOR A DOLLAR! Seriously awesome work you did there - two thumbs up from me! Keep up the good work.
