Faceless for Genesis 8 and 8 .1 consists of a set of Geografts that work like masks to strip the face off of any character. Also included are shaders, textures, and LIE Masks to give the smooth surface an exaggerated expression for the purpose of storytelling. This product can sever several different purposes.

On the one hand, this provides the user with the ability to quickly create crowds without having to worry or bother about what those background characters should look like. Instancing a couple of these 'silhouetted characters' can quickly help build a scene without exhausting your system, especially as you can lower the resolution of these background characters. Adding one of our expressions via LIE can also help show your audience whether the crowd is hostile or not.

Another use would be to provide mystery to a character. If your story is dealing with an antagonist you don't want to show your audience yet, you can use the Faceless Geograft, Materials, and Shaders to shroud him in mystery while still showing something to your audience, giving him a more menacing look.

The third use of this product is to create ghosts or demons that may be guilt-ridding your character. Maybe these phantoms cling to your character, with tears in their eyes, asking for vengeance? Or maybe they trail behind your character, enjoying the way your protagonist struggles through life? Or maybe your protagonists are trying to escape someone but their paranoia makes them feel like everyone's eyes are on them. Whatever the story, this product can help you tell it!

Faceless for Genesis 8 and 8 .1 consists of:

2 GEOGRAFT WEARABLES for each gender which can be applied to both Genesis 8 and 8 .1 Characters. These will replace the face of a solid, featureless mask.

12 HIERARCHICAL IRAY MATERIAL PRESETS (which uses the Uber Shader), six looks for each gender. Three of these skin presets are solid (maples), which will help save resources, as this product is primarily intended for crowd/background characters-the other three consist of 5 maps per look, 15 maps in total for each gender.

6 IRAY SHADERS that match the skin presets and can be used on anything. These will ignore the cutout channel (opacity), so they can also be used for hair as well.

40 EMISSION LIE PRESETS and 16 PARTIAL (UTILITY) MATERIAL PRESETS: The LIE Masks for the emission channel consist of 19 Eyes stamps, 11 Mouth stamps, and 10 Faces stamps. Of course, you can mix and match the mouth and eyes for even more variation! While we included 6 different emission colors, you can always switch to another by selecting the Faceless Grafts and changing the tone of the 'Emission Color' surface! You can likewise change the intensity and use the textured options for more variation!

40 OVERLAY LIE PRESETS and 11 PARTIAL (UTILITY) MATERIAL PRESETS: The LIE Masks for the overlay channel were primarily envisioned for the white skin preset but can be used with all the others. Matching the Emission presets, it also consists of 19 Eyes stamps, 11 Mouth stamps, and 10 Faces stamps. Of course, you can mix and match the mouth and eyes for even more variation! While we included 3 different emission colors, you can decide the color by selecting the Faceless Grafts and changing the tone of the 'Overlay Color' surface! You can likewise change the look by lowering the value of the 'Overlay Weight' and using the textured options for more variation!
