Custom charaacter from photo?

Can anyone out there make a character from a photo of someone in real life? Good looking and reasonably accurate. I am terrible at making decent looking characters and have failed miserably at doing this myself. I have obtained said person's permission for this, btw.

It would be be awesome if someone could also bundle up other mods into one mod, like custom skeleton, body, physics, movements, textures, hair, etc. But the face is the part I just can't do.

I see that you have a deep interest in doing this, from what I can tell from your post history anyway. You can attempt to get close by making the face yourself and combing the mods you'll need to get it just right. I know there is a modder here on the Nexus who did that to get his girlfriend in the game as a follower, here is his mod:

As for the contracting people to help, I can't do that. I have no problem making characters - but I am not very good at capturing likenesses. Sorry I can't help you in that department. But, maybe my words can encourage you to try it yourself. Or, at least inform you of the possibility it could work out.

 

However, it may be worth mentioning the success of the Jessica Alba mod follower:

Or even the Olivia Wilde follower:

Also, perhaps you should provide a picture of the person you wish to capture? I mean, it may be easier for a modder to decide to help you if they had the subject in photo. Or maybe provide more info regarding what you want, I don't know. Generally more information is always preferred.

Edit:

I would assume that the nose would be the hardest part to achieve, plus the scar texture would need to be custom - as well the bum eye. I suppose some of it isn't impossible, but it wouldn't be very easy.

 

P.S. Sorry about the previous state of this post by the way, I just disconnected from the Nexus mid way posting. My apologies if my post confused you pestilence1991.
