    I am a 3D artist, and I can see that face has been probably retopologized and certainly re-unwrapped, so I fully understand that features are not 100% analogous between the two textures, but it is still clear to see how changes were made.

    Old <<<>>> New


    Great comparison but I do find this mildly disturbing and it reminds me of that woman in Dr Who who was just a flap of skin stretched out! Moisturise me!!

    Yes, face textures are always pretty creepy looking, these are not even so bad. But it is the best way to truly compare. No one can say it is just the light, these are just flat .png's and as neutral as can be. Not even accounting for mouth and nose, the feel and direction of male face 3 has completely changed, from smooth jaw and full cheeks, to jowls and sallow cheeks.
