Cyberface creation questions.

Postby z_tripp3 on Tue May 24, 2022 3:40 pm

Hey guys. I've been modding for a couple of months and I think im kind of ok at it, but I still have a couple of questions. When I look at other peoples cyberfaces such as monja and kingram and vindragon, the face textures are so incredibly detailed that he doesn't look like it was modeled after a picture. My question is do you guys use blender to create your face textures, or do you use other platforms. If you do use blender can you tell me what you do to make the face.iff color file so incredibly detailed because when I make them you can easily tell they are from a picture. Thanks guys, Much love.

Finding a high resolution image for a specific player is not always an easy task. When it is not possible to find accurate reference images on the internet, I personally use different editing softwares with which to improve the previous image. For example, with photoshop you can remove noise, improve resolution, increase contrast, saturation, etc. This first step is essential before making the cyberface, because the quality of the final result will depend on your reference image.
