**UPDATE**
As of version 3.0, I have completed reshaped the cuirasses of all costumes to be much slimmer and more form fitting. 
I think most will consider this a big improvement in their designs.

Description:
This is an HGEC conversion of Blood Elves and Egyptian armors for Exnems Body by Plipo, originally by  Plipo.
The upper body is C cup and the lower body is LL size.

In addition to the Blood Elves armor's original design, I have also included an alternate remodeled design by me.
The Blood Elves armor was the reason why I downloaded Plipo's original in the first place, but upon seeing it in my own game,
I felt that it wasn't reaching its full potential visually.
Other than the fact that it needed to be converted to HGEC in order to match my game, the costume's silhouette also needed some improvement and rebalancing.
I removed the metal elements from the neck collar, replaced the shoulders with the Golden Saint's from Vanilla Gear Redux by ElAlquimista,
and replaced the boots with a slightly remodeled version of the Golden Saint's from FLY_SIguardarmor_remodel_replacer_for_HGEC_with_BBB by yuravica.
The collar and the skirt were also lengthened. 
With this alternate, remodeled Blood Elves design, I believe the costume has truly reached a new level.

I have also replaced the boots of the original Blood Elves design with slimmer Golden Saint boots taken from Vanilla Gear Redux.

The gloves have been separated from the cuirass of the Blood Elves armor,
just like how the Egyptian gloves are separate from their matching cuirass in Plipo's original version.

Besides converting it to HGEC, I did not change any elements of the design of the Egyptian armor.

Both armors now use vanilla Elven armor icons and world models. They aren't custom icons and models, but something is better than nothing.

This was my first Blender project. I reshaped the clothing by hand to fit to the HGEC body.
It took many hours, but I learned a lot in the process. I assume that this was the only way to accomplish this task?

Requirements:
1. The original Blood Elves and Egyptian armors for Exnems Body by Plipo must be installed beforehand, otherwise,
     there will be no textures and some missing meshes.
     The original .esp, however, must be deleted, as a new .esp is required in order to use the separated Blood Elves gloves and cuirass.
2. HG EyeCandy Body or the flesh textures might not display correctly.

Installation:
1. Download Blood Elves and Egyptian armors for Exnems Body by Plipo
2. Delete the original .esp and install the remaining files.
3. Download either "HGEC Remodeled Blood Elves and Egyptian Armor 3.0", if you want my alternate redesigned Blood Elves armor,
    or "HGEC Original Blood Elves and Egyptian Armor 3.0",  if you prefer the original design.
    PICK ONLY ONE OF THE DOWNLOADS.
    Both downloads also contain the HGEC converted Egyptian armor.
4. Unzip the file, drop the folder titled "data" in your Oblivion directory, and confirm any messages asking to overwrite any files.

Special Thanks:
1. Plipo for creating the original versions of these costumes
2. Abovewolf and Exnem for creating the Rosana armor and sorceress armor, respectively.
    Plipo's original costumes were created using assets from these mods.
