i visited  this site and i think our hal with real photos is just as good if not better. we have all the bells and whistles. we have animation etc.  and with people putty you can make a person thinner or heavier what needs be.  but it was a neat site and the image was quite good. ;D

Nice find.  I think it will probably beat Haptek on the rendered skin texture, Haptek skins often look washed out to me.  Maybe I should be playing with my lighting more though..

The head shown is a gif version of the real thing - so the amount of colours rendered for the gif will be significantly less than the original.  I bet the actual head when running is even more detailed and realistic.

 neil is the only one i have see other than version4 at haptek that have had much luck with skin texturing.
