Hey there! I'd really love any images you want to add of the character.
If you have any problems, or want to report a bug, feel free to leave a comment, however please read the Description before doing so, as it could save you a lot of time and trouble.
If your issue hasn't been addressed, please post it in the appropriate section.
You'd be surprised, half of the comments are literally about how she looks like one or the other. I'm not upset, both are beautiful. I really wonder if people check comments though?
I plan an update soon, to fix a few tiny issues I've found such as inconsistencies, but also to make her look a bit more normal. Less exaggerated features. Don't worry, nothing drastic and other versions will still be available just in case.
If you can, please add any pictures you want to. I'd love to see them.
I guess nobody reads other comments anymore, but that's okay. That's been posted a few times already, and I've responded to it. It's not even that hard to search for though; there are two large images of Natalie Portman in the comments section.
Would you be willing to share the sculpt file? I can never get my presets looking right without the sculpt, and Brynja is so beautiful I'd like to be able to have her preset done correctly :P
Could you clarify what you mean by 'Sculpt File'? If you mean the actual .NIF file for her, it's easy enough to extract yourself, however I can upload it soon for you if you like. Out of curiosity, what's wrong with the RaceMenu file? I am troubleshooting my Skyrim at the moment. Give me a couple of days and I will upload her file.
For some reason I have never been able to easily just use a racemenu preset and have it look right, even if I install everything correctly. When I say sculpt file, I mean the exported head from RaceMenu during character creation that can then be imported back into RaceMenu via the sculpt tab. I didn't realize you had a follower mod for Brynja, but now that I do, I can definitely get the nif from there. Adding sculpt files to RaceMenu presets tends to make it so the preset applies better. If one uses a sculpt then the preset on top of it, it almost always will turn out perfectly as intended by the creator. However, if you've got some wonky sculpt that you place your preset on top of, it can really mess up how the preset looks. Does that make sense? Haha, I'm not very good at explaining. :P
But yeah, nothing wrong on your end regarding the RaceMenu file. It's just a limitation of the preset jslot, since all the preset file does is alter the sliders.
I wouldn't recommend using the .nif from the follower, as the follower's sculpt is a little outdated, and also has a seam. I've been working to remove it and I have almost erased it, however, I am busy with college, so haven't been able to update that file in a while. Also as I mentioned, my Skyrim is a little dodgy but I have rebuilt it.
I will probably upload it today or tomorrow, depending on how busy I am. I'm making a short film as part of my dissertation and it's due on the 31st of July, so I'm a bit preoccupied at the moment.
I have uploaded a new version of the file, with the new and improved head, as well as the sculpt. It should automatically install via NMM, however, if you have any issues with it, you can simply extract it and install it yourself. Have a good day.
This is like the second time I've reposted this but to be fair the first two were on the Follower; she was inspired by Natalie Portman in V for Vendetta.
People have also drawn a comparison to Jack from Mass Effect, and honestly, I don't mind. Jack's like my favourite Mass Effect character, so that doesn't bother me.
I really like this preset, but for me it comes out very strange with a very fat face. Anyone have any ideas why?
edit: it was an outside mod influencing this one, auto-rounding female facial textures (it was an option in the install process,), I have since uninstalled the other mod and don't recall its name, but I think it was enhanced character edit.
Also please make sure you have downloaded and installed all the required mods.
Please be aware that this preset does not work with Citrus Head Meshes, because although that mod's great for High-Poly heads, it doesn't follow the vanilla mesh vertices very well, which means more extreme morphs like Brynja's head become broken.
EDIT: This mod is only compatible with RaceMenu; I don't know how to remake it for Enhanced Character Edit. If anyone does, I would definitely consider doing an alternate version for those that don't/can't use RaceMenu. :)
I actually have already released her as a standalone follower, however currently she is in a fairly 'broken' phase. She works fine, but she is not using the most up to date face mesh, and she has several seams between her head and neck. I am very busy currently, but I am going to be updating her soon enough.
Here is the mod, but be aware I intend to update her; possibly in the next few weeks.

Sorry about the wait. Hope you understand.
TLDR; I'll upload it in a day or two.

She goes from this...
To this...
Thought it was a cool look. I figured she can look pretty, but doesn't have to have gorgeous L'Oréal hair, as that can sometimes be quite 'Lore-unfriendly'.

Any plan for a standalone follwer release some day?
Thank you and have a nice day
