Greta 9 - 8K Skin Detail Comparison
🕑 Added 2022-10-10 21:01:55 +0000 UTCLast Saturday I had the pleasure to create this model from the Genesis 9 figure, together with prompts and votes from the community. This was fun! We decided to call her Greta (or Gretel actually, but I guess I must have read it wrong in the chat and thought it's a fitting name). She's not perfect by all means, I could have probably smoothed out the jowly neck bit, but it was more about the process and possibilities.
So here she is in 4000x4000 pixel renders with 5000 iterations each, in all four default female skin tones that come with the new figure. Zoom in close to see the 8K detail pop out. As a comparison, I've rendered the close-ups with and without the 8K detail map so you could see the difference in the split versions. It's quite remarkable, and it's done by a single map (which is disabled by default). The additional skin detail can be enabled with a preset with a male or female version (different pore shapes), adding just under 100MB to your VRAM usage per character. This is good news for users with older cards indeed!
The background was done in Photoshop, and I've added a tad of colour correction to compensate for the skin complexion. The funniest comment I read in chat was "Yoda she is". We need to make her a male counter-part next. I have more renders, including full body shots on my ArtStation Page.
Enjoy!
