I posted the high-poly version of this in my sketch thread earlier, but here's the finished version. It has 688 faces. I did the sculpting and some of the painting in ZBrush, used the retopo tool to make the low-poly, turned some edges and UVed it in Max, and used XNormal for the baking and the render. I used the polypainted texture as a base, but most of the texturing was done in Photoshop.
The Freddy make-up varied a lot between the different NOES movies, so I didn't stick to any of them exactly. I liked the version of his face in New Nightmare, so I tried to incorporate some of that with the larger skinless areas around the cheekbones and eyes. But that version was also the least canonical, so I didn't want to leave out the familiar parts of the other versions. I think this may have detracted from the likeness to any of them though.
Anyway, let me know what you think. I'm finished with this for now, but if anyone wants to crit, that'd be great. I'll keep the advice in mind for next time.

Perhaps I'll go back a couple sub-d levels and make myself a Locutus of Borg while I'm at it too though.
