Awesome! great to see your making such good use of our textures!

[fredozamas]

For anyone wondering, it looks like you need to make all the maps just using the "Bake Base Texture" option, since they're all already made. Awesome tutorial thanks!

[bll]

You are a real superhero for this. Very clear and to the point 😁

[AhmedFromMS]

I knew you are a hero and should make a tut for us about free textures, thanking you or even cheering won't be enough to appreciate this work but Good Job 👌👌👌

[abdulhalalitaf]

whatever content u create i will always watch it. ♥

[MarcelE]

I can't believe xNormal is still around <3

[OkaSel]

Can you use a displacement map instead of cavity map and plug it into the AO instead?

[zackrobat]

Thanks for the high quality information!

[blenderstuffs]

This is the most realistic skin texture I've ever seen😍😍

[Suniverse]

have you got a tuto on adding mouth cavity teeth eyes and rigging all that ?

[alexzikov]

thank you very much! I've been waiting for such a lesson for a long time!

[mac_n_cheese]

Best damn skin tut for blender I've seen so far! 👌

[lemiellemarine]

Thank you so much ! I’m gonna try this right away. I have a question is it possible to paint after on top of this ? ( like putting some make up ) with blender or armor paint ?
Hope can someone answer me Thank you 🙏

[WarNoodle]

Yes! Thank you for this. And didn't think I would download xnormal ever again. 😅

[thrdevilwhitin]

So GOOD! man i loved this! i have so much dificulty to unwrap around texturing xyz

[domin]

Honestly?
I wouldn't have thought of this method xD
Thanks for showing ;D

[Bingbangbong]

Important question that would help other beginners like myself:

Q: What is the main use of xnormals? After you have wrapped the texture map around the face model at 3:31 seconds, couldn't we just continue arranging the uv maps till it wrapped perfectly around the head? I dont understand why we need to use xnormals after when it gives the same texture look at 5:55 seconds ? What happens if we dont use xnormals?

Thank you for taking the time to answer this

[ana-otis]

Bake luminance doesnt work for some reason :/

[hanthonypiano]

yea skin shader is no joke.... not to mention eyes hair, and everything else. thanks for sharing!!

So I'm following along using a custom Daz3D character I created. The issue there is that some of these maps you mention are not included. Translucency and Cavity, to be exact, so I swapped in Subsurface Scattering and Bump, respectively. Am I doing it wrong? The results look a lot better than when I started, but not where I would like them to be. Also, how would I darken the skin tone back down? The previous setup I used involved a Hue/Saturation between the Diffuse and Base Color Input, but it doesn't work now. I even tried inserting a Gamma node, but not sure if that's correct either. Not sure if the SS map is impacting this or not. Help?
