Description
Yes, this is an attempt to represent Jesus as he most probably looked.
1) He was not African, nor Caucasian, but Arameic... the closest remaining ethnicity is actually Palestinian.
2) He likely had short hair and a beard... in Corinthians, Paul writes how shameful long hair on a man is, shortly after having claimed to have seen Jesus in a vision... if Jesus had long hair, why would he rail against long hair?
3) He was likely rather weathered from having been out of doors so often as a carpenter's apprentice, and also was likely slightly thicker than average from toting lumber, working the saw, and so on, before he began his teachings.
Anyway, just decided to put this up here... done in P5, thank gawd for the hair Room and the Cloth Room... and the procedural textures just rock.

Much better than the usual stylized version. And you're quite right in the analysis. I would have made the hair darker though. Nice job!
