I spend this morning creating the eyelashes, 240 individual hair from real eyelashes per eye..on 5000x5000 template to fit the rest..lol
as you see the back head and the face maps do not show any difference no more thanks to the texture size of 5000x5000.. I made a new SSS Termo map, that will not affect the hair and the dark skin spots as only the skin in the places where it should, also the skin between the hair will show more natural, I created new HDR Light with only Luminosity, some said not possible in Poser but I think everything is possible if you think clever.. this light can't be edited to get darker or lighter, it is exactly the Luminosity as the one backed in the Photo textures, it do not create the brands and looks more photo-real.. I was waiting for my appointment that did not show up so I made this quick render for you.. rendering time for this resolution 2 min on 64-bit PC with Intel Dual Core and 4Gb of memory. I hope you like, next time I will show you the body ..
Have a great rest of the Sunday Much Love and Light Cath. P.S the hair are a part of the texture and also the head morph.

He's so handsome, the skin and hair are magnificent, I can't wait to see his body! ;^) BRAVO!!!
My heart belongs to Byson but I will have some fun with Buddy hahahaha!
awesome texture detail!
I'm marry him in a heart beat. Probably a smoothy though!!! LOL Love the hair Cath, is this on the maps?? I can't remember if M4 has a hair option like V4 does that's built into the head mesh? In any case.. WOW!! You go girl!
Brilliant ..........I really like what you doing :-)
This is Ultra Realistic. The hair lines are some awesome piece of work!!!
Thank you, the hair are as a part of the texture + morph for the top..one of many options.. the hair looks cool even without the morph just "flat"..
Great hair with a lot of work!Buddy is fabulous Cath!!!Hugz!
Excellent portrait. Well done.
Cath this render is so photorealistic. You have exceeded yourself! I can't believe I'm not the first to comment lol. The lighting is nothing but perfect and the textures are really wonderful and hard to believe, but true! I'm looking forward for previews of his body texture. Keep it up!!!!!!!!!
That's a Poser character?!?!?!?!? Wow! Fantastic work (as usual)
Beautiful work, Cath !
Cant wait for him, love Byson and will get this one too..YOU ROCK!! Please include little tut like in Byson as that helped me soo much. :) He is gorgeous and such realism. Hope those lights work in Poser Pro!!
Thank you, the light was created for Poser 7 and Poser pro so it works 100% the render is from Poser pro above so it works for sure... I love Byson too , they are different ;) so there would always a place in the scene for both of them and many to come ;)
Gorgeous texture!!
Outstanding Work !! :)
Fantasterific! He's just incredible Cath! I can't wait to use him. Love it!
Another fantastic preview! Will there be displacement maps for things like body hair? Because even if he's "smooth" there are tiny hairs that aren't visible but have an affect on how light interacts realistically with the skin. But I have to say you've pretty much solved the issue of "realistic" skin in Poser ;-) Brava again.
Thank you, did you noticed Alex the skin of Byson when the light come from the side ? I can make something like that but it would be only visible in very closer shots, the eyelashes are almost round and not flat but hard to see in this resolution ...I will try tomorrow and post what I did, I need to make for that a Depth maps first..and that will be a lot of work...
Perfeito minha amiga, realismo incrivel, aplausos (5)
Your starting to freak me out, lol, that is so real looking :)
Man, that looks so real!
Excellent!!!!!
Fantastic work!!! He really look as a real person!!!
I think I'm in love...OK, in lust.
He's gorgeous. With files that size will he work in daz studio????
I don't know yet if it would works in Daz|Studio in case it don't I would have to create smaller maps to fix it, I do not render in Daz|Studio so I don't know yet.. with 4049x4049 was not a problem..
Fantastic work Cath!!!
Wow your progress is Excellent! This skin texture is one of the best ive seen in or out of poser!! The hair also is very realistic!! You are a Light and texture God or should i say Godess!! Great stuff as always!!! Did you say you use deep paint for theses results? Johnny
Thank you, yes I use Deep paint 3D and I do it in projection mode so the material fit the model the best way possible as anything else can beside other prog that use projection mode for texturing..
