Johnny had some really wicked scars in his concept art, as well as a torso tattoo that never made it onto his in-game model. Inspired by mods like Lilma’s
Concept Art Look for Johnny – WIP
as well as BarbWireBlonde’s
Johnny Silverhand Eyeliner and Tattoo No Scars Texture Edit
, this mod aims to add those scars and/or tattoos (and more) to Johnny Silverhand in-game, and more specifically, to
just
Johnny; this mod should not alter the body textures of any other NPCs. It also includes files that add a matching ‘Johnny + V’ heart tattoo for Johnny and a variety of nail polish options for that complete rockerboy look.
This mod is fairly customizable, so be sure to read below and make sure you grab all of the pieces you need for it to work properly.
Updates:

Installation (Scars and/or Tattoos):
-
Pick one file from Part 1 and one from Part 2.
This is required
. Depending on the file you choose from Part 1 you may also need a file from Part 3. You can swap the files at any time without issues, but you can only have one file from each section installed at once.
-
Drop the appropriate .archive files into your mod folder. It should be located at Cyberpunk 2077/archive/pc/mod . If you don’t have this folder, you can just go ahead and make one.
-
Enjoy!
Installation (Optional/Standalone):
-
Select your files. You can swap the files at any time without issues, but you can only have one nail polish file installed at once. You
can
install these .archives without installing any other part of this mod.
-
Drop the appropriate .archive file(s) into your mod folder. It should be located at Cyberpunk 2077/archive/pc/mod . If you don’t have this folder, you can just go ahead and make one.
-
Enjoy!
Uninstallation:
-
Delete the .archive files from your mod folder.
Fine Print & Conflicts:
The nail polish should be persistent across all of Johnny’s appearances, and should only apply to Johnny, but it is
possible
that it will impact other NPCs if you have cleared their cookedappearance files. If you have this issue, please let me know.
This mod will conflict with any other mod that edits Johnny’s diffuse or normal body textures or the mesh of Johnny’s body. The nail polish files will conflict with any other mod that alters the mesh of the short nails for males (right hand only). This mod is
not
compatible with my
Heart 4 Johnny
mod, but it does the same job, just better, so I’d advise you simply replace that mod with this one.
This mod
is safe
to use with mods that alter Johnny’s face textures or mesh, as well as mods that alter his other files. It
is safe
to use with Lilma’s
Cleaned Up Silverhand
. It should also be safe to use with mods that alter the generic male body textures, diffuse and/or normal, though any changes applied to these files will no longer apply to Johnny.
If you use a mod that alters Johnny’s textures and would like to have that mod made compatible with this one, feel free to reach out to me; in most cases I’ll be willing to try to contact the other mod’s author and see if we can make something work.
Credits:
This mod literally could not have happened without
Lilma
‘s original
Concept Art Look for Johnny
mod. All of the diffuse textures in this mod (with the obvious exception of the default body texture) are from Lilma, and I’ve simply remixed and shared them here
with permission
. The normal map for Johnny’s scars used in Johnny Reskinned is my work, but was created to match Lilma’s diffuse textures.
The versions of this mod which incorporate
Tsar
‘s
body hair textures
were made
with permission.
For these files, the diffuse and normal body textures are the work of Tsar; I have simply taken these textures and blended them with Lilma’s scar diffuse texture and my matching scar normal texture.
Thanks a bunch to revenantFun for catching my mistake and helping to finally get the silver skin bug fixed.
Thanks to rfuzzo for CP77 Tools, alphaZomega for the Noesis plugin, Halvkyrie for the
modding guide
, and just generally to everyone over in the Cyberpunk 2077 Modding discord for posting a whole bunch of fantastic tutorials and tips.
I’d love to see your screenshots, either shared here or, if you’re posting them over on tumblr, please feel free to
