How to make a face texture video inside

[EXecutionerX85]

Hey guys I have received  alot of pms regarding face textures (custom textures for in game guys etc) regarding a topic i once had. I thought that I would go ahead and make a walkthrough on how to do it on Photoshop to help some users out, and also provided template photos(some of them are not mine) that will help the community. I will also provide help to those that need help with their textures as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lApv4tDSqc&fmt=18

i still prefer using 3d models that way u have full body textures front sides and back and makes them look more realistic, but mainly depends on who your creating

Thats cool too man/ I do the same aswell but some people still don't know how to do all that lol I really like your content btw

[mrelectriccity]

thanks, and thanks for the templates and tut, i'ma try it out on some pictures of real faces and taking the lighting in them out.  i always had trouble making them look right when tryin to do it 

 

oh yeah its also better if u make a cut out of face alone without the extra skin to use as a regular custom logo to place over it after u use the photo captured one to morph it, if u want all the details such as wrinkles on ur caw

You can just simply draw over the face photo to emphasize all of the detailing so you won't need to waste any additional layers or logos.

u talking about before u import face logo or after u import it and use it in game? cause i know when u use a face imported pic, like he said reason why adding wrinkles to pic, that some of the details of the face are faint barely visible if visible at all. 

but since u already used the photo and have the face morphed correctly to that face, when u add the custom logo of the face it will line up perfectly and have all the details of the face that may have not shown up with only the imported face pic

i think he meant before

I meant before you apply the face photo. You can get all the detailing you need for most guys with the imported face photo alone, you just need to emphasize it a bit before you use it in game.

yeah i thought you meant before since you can't "draw" in the game as far as i'm aware of

Yea, I'd definitely recommend people try doing it, same goes for lip colour. Making them brighter than they should be makes them balance out correctly in game and saves you having to use lipstick to get the right colour. The face texture I used for AJ Styles makes him look like a drag queen, but in game it works perfectly. It takes more effort since it does require a little bit of trial and error but the results are definitely worth it.

i think the only issue i have sometimes is i've seen some do the red colors and they come out more Fuze or lavendar than red. that's been going on for years though. I dont' have the free time i used to have so i haven't really tried using Photoshop in a long while. I'm amazed at the stuff the community comes up with. man i remember back in the day when all we had was Paint Shop Pro, MS Pain, and Macromedia Fireworks lol. that seemed to be a different lifetime ago.

I always do separate layers for detailing. Like I said in the video when you add age lines to the forehead they are more visible then the details below the nose. So I use other layers for those. I've spent hundreds of hours on caw mode lol and honestly If you want a good result you have to have a good resolution picture , edited detailing such as eye wrinkles/cheek bones/ eyelids etc.  to make a good texture the whole import a photo without editing will end in disaster unless it's a high resolution ( media press event) that a actual photogapher took
