The image above represents the progress made to date, there are still a few tweaks needed, the colour of the hair is actually quite challenging and it needs to be a little darker as per the Police description. A little more skin tone and we will be there.
Thanks to Professor Derek Abbot and others for their input in the process, please note the mole.
Any comments would be very welcome.
That's a hard face GC ..
ReplyDeleteCertainly has that look, one of the issues in creating this was the eyes, as you would know an unpleasant part of the autopsy process, not that there's any particularly pleasant aspects, is the removal of the eyes. As a result we have no idea of the 'set' of his eyes prior to the autopsy just empty spaces filled with cotton wool or similar. The eyes could be softened and it would change the whole appearance.
DeleteWhat about a beard and moustache?
ReplyDeleteIt might well be that nobody recognized him at the time because they were used to seeing him with facial hair. Just sayin'... :-)
Aha! The renowned red bearded spy! Just the thing to avoid standing out in a crowd :) I do wonder about the clean shaven image of him that was published originally, given his supposed movements he would have been without a shave for 18 hours or more before his departure yet no 5 o'clock shadow or stubble..
DeleteYou're right, our clean-shaven dead man is problematic for the timeline. I shall have to think about this...
DeleteWow! That's a great image! Nice work!
