About this blog

Come with me as I learn how to mod in Skyrim LE.  The purpose of this blog is both to document a journey, and to document the various tips and tricks and solutions found in the forums.

 

Currently the plan is to start with CBBE Outfit conversions, and go through related topics until finally I make my own follower from scratch (outfits, custom head mesh, and maybe a small quest)
