Hero Forge; more face customizer beta

I thought it would be fun last night to do a new mini of myself with the new face customizer. I'm not sure that the face actually looks any more like me than the standard one that I used previously, but at least it's more detailed. Eh.


Curiously, that sport coat looks too small, and the boots look way too big. I also don't really wear sport coats all that often; it's supposed to represent a smarter casual leather jacket, or something. I do, however, have dark circles under my eyes (and always have; it's a genetic feature, not a commentary on my sleep or stress—although they're probably exaggerated here), and the grayness of my hair is probably about right. Although I tried to make the jawline look softer, it is probably still too chiseled looking. When I was younger and thinner, I had a pretty chiseled jaw, but it doesn't look as much like that now! And although I tried to pull my chin in a bit and make it narrower, it still looks too broad and prominent to really look like mine. I got the sloping Neanderthal forehead right, although the angles don't really show it much here. They also didn't really have glasses that look my my glasses, so I had to go with the oversized round ones because... that's kind of all that they had, really. Still; I'm happy with the overall appearance, even if I tinker with a few minor details still in the future.

Also, I've been making more "thurses" in a vaguely Warhammer Beastmen of Chaos mold lately. Those faces actually aren't customizable; only the human-ish faces. For now, anyway.
