This is my mother in 3D.
Rendered with the NVIDIA NvRTX Unreal Engine 5.4 branch from GitHub.

Using Ray Traced Sampled Direct Lighting (RTXDI) and ReSTIR GI, I noticed a better, cleaner and more stable Global Illumination (GI).

I got more detailed skin with Path Tracer, but some weird parts.
So I did two EXR renders and composed some parts of each to achieve a better look.
Render 1: ReSTIR GI with RTXDI
Render 2: Path Tracer with 300 samples.

Process:

  • Scanned with Polycam and then converted to a Metahuman.
  • Used Blender with KeenTools FaceBuilder plugin to create 8k texture compatible with Metahuman.
  • Edited the texture in Adobe Photoshop and then created a normal map.
  • Processed the texture in Beeble SwitchLight Studio, so AI removed some reflections/specular and created a better albedo map.
  • Rendered in UE 5.4 NVIDIA branch (as mentioned above).
  • Composed both renders in Photoshop.
  • Color grading and AI filter for smoothing the hair in Lightroom.

That’s it. Hope you like it.
Please give a like on Artstation :blush:

My father in 3D is coming soon.

I mean, really, truly good work. Great subsurface scattering, the flesh looks fleshy and not plastic. Attention to surface detail with the wrinkles.

Side by side w/photo looks pretty much 1:1.

If I owned a company, would-hire. :smiley:

Hello @andersonrohr !

What a lovely way to not only utilize your tools and practice with something familiar but uniquely showcase your mother. I can agree with @Frenetic in regards to the realism of it and the output. If I didn’t know that this was a UE project I would’ve thought maybe you were highlighting some lovely photos!

Keep up the awesome work!
