Since LotR is 1.7, those videos shouldn't be too outdated, but I would be glad to try and help out.

I usually do better with Q&A, so if you have questions, feel free to ask, but I will try to give some general tips and tricks.

Eyes
For a human skin, the standard eye level is the fourth pixel from the bottom of the face - This will work with human and elven helmets in the LotR Mod. If you want the skin to work well with orcish gear, the eyes should be on the fifth pixel from the bottom.

Folds and Creases
When I want creases or folds in clothing, I usually pick the base color of the clothes, darken or lighten the color very slightly, and color a patch with that color. You can then repeat the process, starting with the new color and coloring increasingly smaller patches, until you get the look you like.

General Clothing Texturing
If you don't want folds and creases in the clothing, but don't want it all to be the exact same color, I would suggest taking the base color, adjusting it slightly, and then randomly coloring about half of the clothes with the new color. You can do it again as many times as you like, but I think it works best if you have a roughly equal amount of the clothes painted with each color.

That's all I have for now! If you have questions, feel free to ask. I will post again if I think of anything.
