Alright! So all nine divines, three images each. Get ready. In alphabetical order.

 

As stated above...Vanilla > STEP > Remiro's

A lot of the Ren's Shirines are a bit cartoon in their looks. I was surprised how well the vanilla shrines holds up.

 

For Akatosh I would go with either STEP or Remiro's depending on if you think it should be more rusted or not.

For Arkay, Dibella, Julianos  I would go with Remiro's

For Kyne either Vanilla or Remiro

For Mara and Stendarr I actually prefer vanilla. Not by much.

For Talos and Zenithar Remiro

 

So yeah, my vote would go for Remiro's replacing STEP. I like that they are closer to vanilla while still being a nice improvement.

Don't forget, we can mix and match. STEP is Ren's HD Shines, for reference.

  • Akatosh: STEP : Both are complete changes. I prefer STEP. Remiros turns it into a gemstone-like texture.
  • Arkay: STEP : STEP's is gilded, which I kinda like. Remiros is closer to vanilla in the fact that it doesn't add gold, but it is also a complete color change. So take your pick. I like STEP.
  • Dibella: STEP : Both, again, are changes. STEP's is another gilded-style. Remiros is closer to vanilla-style, but is still a change...it's almost muted vs vanilla. I prefer STEP again.
  • Julianos: Remiros : Remiros looks best here. No doubts.
  • Kynareth: undecided : Honestly, I can't decide. None? Is there a none option? STEP's fits better with the surrounding textures, but Remiros is, again a change, but still closer to vanilla. However, Remiros also pays to emphases to the stone and almost mutes it again.
  • Mara: STEP : This is the wrong option for STEP. It should be the Gilded Saint....if it is, it's too dark to tell. I much prefer STEP's. Not only does the gilding add to an otherwise uninteresting stone statue compared to the others, but STEP's also has a far better face.
  • Stendarr: undecided : Both are changes, again. Take your pick. I have no strong preference here.
  • Zenithar: Remiros : Remiros is clearly better here too.
  • Talos: Remiros : Remiros is the best of the bunch here, as well.

I'm mostly agreeing with @TechAngel for most of these:

 

Akatosh: STEP

Arkay: STEP

Dibella: STEP

Julianos: Remiros' Shrines HD

Kynareth: I do not like any of these, but I think it's primarily because the vanilla design is so bad. It look as is someone removed an air pump from a forge and put a clown face on it.

Mara: STEP

Stendarr: I could go with either, but I have a very slight leaning toward Remiros' Shrines HD

Zenithar: Remiros' Shrines HD

Talos: Remiros' Shrines HD

Yeah... sorry for the darker lighting. It was easier to go to the Temple of the Divines besides my current character being in Whiterun already. I might have chosen wrong for Ren's Mara. After reinstalling, here it is again in Riften.

 

Vanilla>STEP>Remiros' (Remiro's was picking up a lot of candle shadow though.)

Looking through them again and considering mixing I would go with:

 

Akatosh: STEP
Arkay: Remiros'
Dibella: STEP
Julianos: Remiros'
Kynareth: Vanilla I guess
Mara: STEP
Stendarr: Remiros'
Zenithar: Remiros'
Talos: Remiros'

I would go with whatever is most like vanilla (material/color) but improved (more detail/higher def) with compromise if the improvement is a deviation from vanilla but clearly more aesthetically pleasing.

 

Here's what I DON'T prefer (I don't favor any one in particular except STEP's Akatosh):

 

Julianos: not STEP
Kynareth: not STEP
Stendarr: not STEP
Zenithar: not STEP
Talos: not STEP
