InsanitySorrow has created a large number of high-resolution texture and normal map replacers for stock armor and weapons, compiled two ways for your convenience.
The first package is a scripted OMOD that will allow you to install all the textures or choose only specific ones to install. This .omod can only be used or extracted by Oblivion Mod Manager (OBMM).
The second package is a .7zip archive that contains the full compilation in one parent folder, so you can manually install the whole thing in the usual drag-and-drop-and-overwrite fashion. The alternate Elven and Glass textures are offered as well, in separate folders. This package is BAIN-friendly.
Both packages include all of InsanitySorrow's high-rez armor and weapon retextures to date:

Installation:
=================
BAIN (using the 7zip archive)
1) Move or copy the downloaded archive to your Bash Installers folder, no need to extract first.
2) From the Wyre Bash installers tab, select the archive on the left. Check the boxes on the right for Core Files and any alternate colors you wish to install.
3) Right-click on the archive on the left, and choose Install from the context menu.
OMOD (using the .omod)
1) Double-click the .omod file from within Windows Explorer. This will open OBMM and automatically add the .omod to OBMM.
2) Double-click the .omod from within OBMM to begin installation. Follow the prompts to select which content you want to install.
Manual (using the 7zip archive)
1) Extract the archive you downloaded to a temporary location.
2) Copy the contents of the "Core Files" folder to your ..Oblivion\Data folder. Click "Yes" to overwrite, if prompted.
3) Repeat step 2 for any of the alternate folders, if desired.
Wrye Bash and OBMM both handle ArchiveInvalidation for you, which is required for texture replacers such as this to take effect in-game. If you don't have either of those applications, please consult your internet search engine of choice for other solutions.
=================
Un-Installation:
=================
BAIN
Right-click the archive from the Installers tab and choose Uninstall from the context menu.
