512x512 is a good size for background things in the far distance

1024x1024 is a good size for medium background size objects

2048x2048 is a good size for screen size objects

4096x4096 is the max size per material group => for close up or detailed work.

Example:

You can use a 4096x4096 for the face material.
Another 4096x4096 for the body matarial , etc.;... ... ...

Or? As the face is a lot smaller than the rest of the body.
A 2048x2048 map for the face and a 4096x4096 for the rest of the body
Or a 1048x1048 for the face, a 4096x4096 for the rest of the body, and a 512x512 for the lashes.
Just examples.

A HUGE object, you can cut into more material groups if you need them.
