Is there anyway we could get a tutorial on the first image on this thread.  That face is amazing and would love to know how the textures were adjusted.  I'm sure the normal and base were manipulated with photoshop.  Just don't know exactly how it was done.

Thanks

Hello all together
All the examples of you have become very beautiful,
Here's my first try.

This probably isn't much of a "Headshot" image, but I'm having some fun with CC3 and playing with editing things.  I did something like this once using physics in iClone where I had the girl brush a strand of hair back with her fingertips.  This is actually more labor-intensive since I was playing with editing the actual hair mesh itself using the CC3 Mesh Edit capabilities.

I rendered in Iray...

Whoops, I see I sort of curled her right (our left) eyelid a bit.  Yuck.  I wonder which of the 1000+ morphs and Facial "Muscle Edit" things I was using when I did that.  Obvious it's my fault.  Oh well, I'll post the picture anyway.

ADDED A BIT LATER...
Okay, I fixed her right eyelid.
It's great to have so many morph/edit options, but it could be a full-time job to learn them, and even more to master them.
It's fun, but this is why we need character artists, lighting specialists, terrain builders, script writers, mocap specialists, wardrobe people, and on and on...
My main goal, other than playing with the toys, is to share little stories, and all the components of that process always seem to pull me away from that desire.
Anyway... here's the corrected image...

I decided to join the two pictures side-by-side to make it easier to compare the differences.
