    I was low-key hoping Yoshi P would surprise us by sneaking some lovely highlander supercilia into the updated benchmark...

    Oh well, Highlander brothers, the Roegadyn people will be your salvation!

    The eyebrow facepaint has also been put back to its old position, so it's not sitting 10 feet higher than it's supposed to. It still hasn't been up-res'd but I personally find it hard to notice unless I stick the camera right up in the characters face.
    I don't think the position has been fixed. At the very least it's still not at the same placement as it is in Endwalker.



    Left is Endwalker, Right is Dawntrail. There are a lot of things about the "upgrade" I'm unhappy with, but let's focus on the Face Paint Eyebrows. The placement of these markings is positioned significantly higher on the brow than it was pre-Dawntrail. This makes the character look more "surprised" all the time rather than more serious.

    Additionally, even with the darkest color (black) selected, the shade appears lighter or less vibrant than it currently is pre-Dawntrail. This makes it difficult to pass these markings off as eyebrows, as the lighter they appear the more fake they look.

    I just want to point out that your Face 2 image (I haven't checked the other) isn't aligned correctly. I've added red lines to show you.



    Once you move the 1.1 head so that the bottom of the chin, bottom of the nose, and bottom of the eye aligns with the EW image, then the eyebrow facepaint on the 1.1 image is going to shift quite a bit higher and pass through that black line. So the eyebrow facepaint in Dawntrail is still quite a bit higher than it is in Endwalker.
