For anyone interested: if you have weird normals on the mesh, you need to recompute normal tangents on the skeletal mesh after import. This took me a while to figure out to be honest 😂. This also helped to solve groom bindings and now the hair work as expected .

Hey guys!
this Saturday 11th @ 5-6:30pm PST I am honored to talk about my work and lifestyle for the past 10 years.
I am a Character Artist specialized on Digital Humans and have worked with some of the best studios out there, i.e: BLUR, Electronic Arts, GooByeKanas or RealtimeUK among others. During these years I managed to establish work routine while enjoying my hobbies and time. In addition, I am a big fan of sea life and made underwater photography one of my biggest passions, so if you like sea creatures just say HI! LOL
So if you have ever been interested in WORK & TRAVEL I am sure this is something that will interest you and don't hesitate to ask your questions.
I will be giving away a Scholarship at the end of the talk, so stay tuned!
You can find/join the presentation at LightBox website: https://2021.lightboxexpo.com/schedule/
Hope to see you all there! :D
Realtime @marmoset lookdev skin render from Gagarin I am sculpting for @wacom

I decided to test out the latest HD head scans from @scanstore and their pipeline about extracting the porosity information and implementation in PS, rather than the sculpt. Let me know what do you think? I feel for realtime characters is a definitely a speed up process ;)
Since I am using a different basemesh I had to do a projection in HD subdivsions to be able to retain all the details from the scan and bake out a new normal map witouth any secondary information, so I could get only the tertiary pass from the scan. Really liked how fast could be set up and since the porosity layer is set up in PS makes the lookdev process even faster.
Will finish the set up soon and give it a try in UE later on.
Fibermesh is temporary from the scan file, I will remove those and create proper lashes and brows.
Hope you guys like it!

ArtHeroes Likeness Program:https://artheroes.co/likeness-program
Realtime Jordan I created for the Likeness Program at ArtHeroes. The intention with this project is to display all the process in building any likeness from 0. The course covers all the face anatomy landmarks you need to know, the full process as long with the LookDev breakdown ;)
kin and eye divergence update, so subtle! what do you think ? Also implemented peach fuzz 🍑 and improved all Xgen descriptions
Implemented the XYZ micro displacement into the shader to enhance the porosity, also made a second pass on the skin texture. The more I work the skin albedo the more I think I should have use zbrush from the beginning for the polypaint.....doing this type of job in MARI is a pain in the butt. Anyway slightly better now.
Placeholders for all the remain elements, I just need to find time to finish them....lately workload is killing me :) I hope you guys like the progress and let me know what do you think?
