This is not my mod, but it is so magnficent I wanted to share it here, it removes the pretty boy fashion model look that some of us (ahem) have become acostumed to and gives elves a truly different look but quite fitting to the barbaric province of Skyrim....especially the Dunmer look like they just got off the boat from Morrowind..simply magnificent check it out I will paste the original moder′s description

Ethereal Elven Overhaul is a comprehensive revamp of the elf races of Skyrim. It alters every aspect of their facial features to a more appealing look, while remaining faithful to the original work and striving for realism. EEO also affects every elven NPC in the game and comes with new presets.

EEO is compatible with all body, skin and hair mods that would affect vanilla elves alike. The provided screenshots attempt to emulate a vanilla look with the mod, and your end results will slightly vary according to which skin you have in place. EEO provides its own normal maps that cannot be overwritten by custom skin mods.

As EEO has a large amount of files in a variety of locations, it is recommended you install it via the Nexus Mod Manager. A manual installation is easy and most possible, but should you need to remove the files later, it might prove trickier to hunt down every individual asset. Installation/uninstallation instructions are provided with the mod.

EEO makes a large number of changes to the elves' appearances:

• New racial head shape for each race and gender
  
• New, EEO-exclusive nose and lip morphs for both genders
  
• Unique high-detail, high-resolution normal map for each race and gender
  
• Optional 2048x ultra high-detail versions of the textures are available
  
• Unique war paints and skin tints for each race
  
• Beards, scars fit to the new head shapes
  
• Every elf NPC has new, refined facial features
  
• 6 new recruitable elf followers, one of each race and gender

Known incompatibilities
-Extended Slider Colours may cause the elves' warpaints to vanish
-Any mod altering the elf race records will not work with this (such as SkyRe, I know people will ask for this - but I cannot promise a compatibility patch yet)
-NPCs introduced by Dawnguard are unaffected by EEO - this is a possible future patch

Hello, I'm the mod's creator and I'm here to answer any of your questions/feedback regarding EEO! I was unable to post this thread myself since I can't attach links or images yet. Cabron, can you re-format your post so the images show up?

We can't post images on these forums. No one can.

Ah! That's me being a shameful noob on here, then. Disregard that.

No probz.

Anyways, on the mod, I must give you props, those pics look astounding. I'm downloading now, and will let you know what I think as soon as I can.
