Ancient Nord Armor and Saviors Hide CBBEv3 Echo
A remesh of Ancient Nord Armor and Savior\’s Hide for CBBE v3.
I made some modifications to the vanilla Ancient Nord Armor and Savior’s Hide armor for CBBE v3. I also modified the CBBE v3 body. For Savior’s Hide, I was attempting to make the armor somewhat like a corset.
These are simple replacers for the vanilla meshes. I haven’t used the construction kit yet but may add stand alone versions later.
This is my first Skyrim mod. It was a way to learn and practice editing models in 3DS Max and Nifskope, so if there are any errors or conflicts let me know. There are some known issues, which I will outline below. I will update as I iron out the issues. Depending on how this goes I may edit some other vanilla meshes similarly. I’m open to ideas but I am very much a novice at this and will probably only edit vanilla armors and clothes.
Please check out my Falmer Darkseeker Armor, Thieves Guild Duelist Armor, and Field Mage Outfit, all for CBBE v3.

Caliente – CBBE is an incredible work of art and I very much appreciate Caliente’s dedication and generosity to the Skyrim community. I was apprehensive altering with the mesh. Hopefully I didn’t mess it up to much.
