About this image

I feel like this is it, what do you think about skin colour? I have no lightning mods installed. This is one of those places where lightning makes Geralt as light as he can be. Before making shadows in some places (like nose), more details and a better normal map, I want to first settle all questions with this aspect.

    Hi, I am using a custom reshade preset that I made. I love it, but the problem is, it makes the skin tones look very pale and white. I want to add some reddish and orangish tint to the skins and in a way so that it doesn't affect anything else in the game, just the skins (I wanna keep the environment just like the reshade preset that I've been using). Is there any way to overwrite that reshade preset just for the skins?

    Every NPC in The Wither 3 world has a bit of a red hue in certain areas, like their nose and lips. Your character's skin tone looks more like they were based on the promotional material released by Netflix. So while yours look good, they don't look like they belong in the same game.

    I've said this before, but your dedication to this is quite admirable.

      Not hurrying, globally v4 is finished, v5 is more off a not pressure work, since I wanted to end on v4. Currently I'm working only on textures, after that I want to make some researches and learn if it's possible for me to make eyes bigger , without breaking animations and clipping, with empty spaces near eyeballs. And I'm gonna make textures for his market fight from the show instead of black shirt that he has and black pants (adding ornaments from the show). Everything will take time, since I'm not doing only it, I can't tell for how long and I prefer to release stuff all in one, so things have my sign, vision of things I would like in a game (example my Joker DLC mark, that could be annoying and I want it to be that way, so you would hurry to get rid of the curse). In the end, I want to give another try to not clipping beards, but currently after each version was done, the same problem occurred with remodelled beards for them - no textures.

    The longer I look at it, the better it gets. It´s not to pale nor to tan to me.

      I'll post another version today for comparison, just slightly darker. I'm kinda worrying for people with reshades, that he will be bleached in their high contrast games

      Darker. Too bad didn't test 12 o'clock in this place before. The side one is probably close to the time I made previous picture, since it's the same save

      12 o´clock looks also really good.
      I think with Cavills Geralt darker is always better,
      he mostly seems less pale to me in the show even though they paled him up with makeup.

    Yeah that look pretty good to me. The skin tone it just right and looks very good. Not to pale or tan, just right.

    I WANT... NO, I NEED IT!

    Looks ready to me! Now we need to send it to Henry Cavill himself and have him react on camera :D

      imho too dark there, it's like he is the Indian one, not Yennefer, but I will make her darker in the final version :D I'm thinking about different shades of light skin for Henry, but I'm definitely gonna make eyebrows stand out more, I didn't make much details, it's like a not simple sketch now, before I start drawing above this edited photo
