would probably be easier to make a geografted ‘mask’ to hide the face…. maybe?
Or you could possibly take a primative, deform it and scale it to approximately face size, and if ts bubble enough (so only touches sides of face/top/bottom of face, not the nose/mouth) you could use smoothing to make it fit the face…. or use a deformer on genesis face to flatten it first, and pull it back into the head, before doing the smooth thing.
Good idea, thanks guys. =) I tried using Sickle’s lipless and noseless morphs but they don’t show up in DS 4.0 =( I tried making morphs in Hex but it crashed on me. Postwork is probably going to be the easiest. It’s just for a 200x200 avatar so it doesn’t have to be perfect on close inspection.
Fisty here’s a quick example of a crude primitive mask made from a sphere, deformers, and smoothing, and a deformer for the face. Obviously texture is something you have to work out, an its only matching the outer edge of the face not the actual shape, so could probably send you the obj if you need it.
I slapped your plain velvet shader on it
Then I liked it so much I put your sparkles on it….
I could probably whip one up in ZBrush as a morph for Genesis. I’m sure someone will get to it before I do but it’s probably not that hard to achieve. That way the skin textures would all work. A face skin with no eyebrows would give quite a freaky look!
I’ve got a noface prop for v4 floating around in my sharecg freebies. If you don’t take anyone else up on their offers, you could turn that prop into a conformer for genesis and then reverse the v4 shape out of it?
Oh.. should point out I’m still using DS 4.0.3 if either of you were feeling froggy about helping me out. I woulda just used Sickle’s morphs and been happy if they’d worked but she updated them for 4.5 and now they apparently don’t work in 4.0 ‘cause they don’t show up anywhere, even tried searching for the names in all morph and shapes.

Here’s my V4 noface prop if you want to give it ago. Hypothetically, you should be able to load it, click the scene tab and go to assets->create clothing. I would think that somewhere in there it would give you the option to reverse out the V4 shape.
