Hello I made just a quick scan last year by my cheap old smartphone - Xioami Redmi 7A. Of some debris from a building renovation i went by by a chance.

Here is the face I did recently to try my hands on Unreal engine. The goal was to get a good looking skin, even after super closeup. Something that Lukas Hajka's project inspired me to do. It's still way off from his level of quality, but is a start. Will be updating my skin knowledge more and more. For the detailing…
