Additionally, the creator utilized maps from TexturingXYZ and 3D Scan Store to set up the textures, as well as XGen, which was used to recreate the character's hair. The goal of the project, the artist noted, was to showcase how to use the SubSurface Scattering map to "get closer to reality in terms of a CGI face".
