Silverin Guard Helm Reskin Reborn (Shunraiki's High Elf Reskin Submod)

Submod for Shunraiki's excellent High Elf Reskin, adding my updated Silverin Guard helmet.

Anybody else miss this amazing reskin from back in the WH2 days? Me too! Unfortunately it was never ported forward, and had a couple visual bugs with its LODs. So because I hate myself and have too much time, I decided to remake it almost entirely, using newer versions of their assets from WH3 as a base and tweaking the helmet to match.

-Reskins Silverin Guard helmets with custom textures, and adds an extra faceplate

-Gold accents from the original have been painstakingly changed to silver to match the rest of their armor

-Body armor changes have been removed. The original had some issues with clipping around the arms, and it was hard enough for a caveman modder like me to edit the helmet, let alone the whole set. And tbh the helmet was the iconic part of it for me (IIRC even CA gave them a shoutout for it back in the day), so that's all I was interested in bringing forward

-Compatible with Hooveric's Reskin
-Does NOT require the original, if you're using Shunraiki's reskin you only need this mod
-Should be compatible with anything that doesn't override the Silverin Guard head model

Winter-06 for the original concept, file structure, and a gem texture

-----------------------------------------

I originally wanted to just make a straight port, but I wasn't a fan of the results, and I assumed it was a fully custom model which is out of my league to edit. But very much in the spirit of Warhammer, it turned out to be a kitbash! Then it was just a matter of doing tedious color alterations and bashing my face against the wall for hours until the LOD bug was fixed. Turned out to be extremely simple, literally just two values set to 0 instead of 1 (kill me).
