Description

Serana replacers are a dime a dozen out there on the Nexus. I wanted to create my own version of her without being just like every other replacers out there. So I make a replacer for her that is modeled after Serana's voice actress Laura Bailey which hasn't ever really been done that I've seen. It's not a 1:1 replica of her or anything, but its about as close as I can get within the confines of Racemenu. My goal was to create a Serana that looked human (or previously human) and I figured modeling her after the features of her voice actress conveyed that quite well.

EDIT: The latest 2.0 version has been uploaded and it brings a complete rework of this project. The previous version had way too small of a head. I tried to edit it to look better but ultimately decided to completely start again from scratch. The scale looks much better now.


 

Requirements

RaceMenu (to make the hood hair the correct color)
Expressive Facial Animation Female

Lamae's Gaze (if using the Vampire Eyes version) The eye meshes were edited to reference the glow map from this mod.

The mod was designed with the version of the High Poly Head that was made to work with Expressive Facial Animation. Using this mod without Expressive Facial Animations installed can cause issues such as mouth clipping or eyes looking odd. It's not a hard requirement but to avoid any issues you should have it installed.


Features

High Poly Head and Vanilla hair thanks to KouLeifoh (you can check out his work on Vector Plexus)

Laura Bailey

5 Different versions, one KS Hair version, one vanilla hairstyle version, one vampire eyes version for each of those hairstyles, and one alternate appearance version.

Hood hair -  hair under the hood matches the hairstyle version you install. I've also slightly slimmed down the shape of the hood.


Mod Suggestions (to make it look like screenshots, they're not requirements)

I have left the faces, bodies, and eyes to use whatever textures you have (if any) installed because everyone's preference is different. That being said, for best results these are the mods the replacer was designed with and I highly recommend them.

Tempered Skins for Females (I used the young rough version)
Superior Lore-friendly Hair (rough version)

Brows (just for retextures))
Authentic Eyes
