Creating human skin on a computer is notoriously hard and could ruin a good model. Just saying that your fine model could look better with real textures.
You mean using photos? I'm kinda going for a more cartoony look.

There are (hundreds of) thousands of excellent photos of human skin if you know where to look. If you're going for a cartoon look then that's a whole different thing. For that you pretty much need to make your own textures. Although I wouldn't even use textures, just single color materials.

the people who just post in this thread complain to complain about this are idiots
See it as a comment.
As in 'all of this stuff is so good I want to use it on a daily basis'.

I'm going for a Saint's Row 2/3 level of realism graphically. I think I've got that more or less. It looks a lot better ingame too.

I hope I can somehow smooth out the shadows though. They don't look all that good on my character or my car.




Working with curves is almost painful. Overlapping edges. So many.. overlapping edges..
