You forgot the nose glow! This is outstandingly remarkably fantastic. I think I hate you! And it is not even finished yet? It's not GR8, it is GR10! Well done!

Hope you offer a FBM that can get past the low res mesh. A displacement map over a new modeled RTEncoded object,,,;).. you'll set a new standard if the body is as good as this head. Save your work safely...
