I might do that, but still get marmoset as it looks handy to have. Earlier you said about the fabric normals and the threading, I don't understand what you mean.
Right, when I'm free and finished with my masters, I'll start right away with him and afterwards I'll do the private. I have to buy marmoset to get those renders properly unless substance painter does a update that fixes that issue with the hair.
Most, if not all, of my work is in Marmoset Toolbag. Substance Painter lacks the shader options for organic elements like skin and hair. IRay is nice, but not for super final beauty shots. I'd prefer black RDJ. If it's well executed, you'll have something strong on your hands.
