Description
I had stopped using M3 once M4 came out because the skin textures were so much better. It only occured to me today to use human surface shader on M3. I think it brings it up to par (or better) than most M4 textures, don't you?
This render's just a test of it. Wanted a face with some character and some shadow and light play so I could see how it would really look.
Enjoy, and let me know what you think.

It seems to work pretty good. Like the overall effect here.
Very nicely done! His skin looks really good! Great idea!
"No matter where I go I still got mercs on my neck!" Fabulous work. Particularly love the textures and lighting.
Excellent work
Is that a daz3d only shader? It looks pretty good. I'd like to use M4 more often, but most of my outfits only work on M3
Looks great! Excellent job.
It looks very good indeed--I'd love to pull out M3 again if I could get him to look this nice!
GENIAL.
Ok i would say i need more skin to look at. Its not fair to have such a small space to compare to M4. What i see looks ok, but id prefer more to work with. And actually there wasn't that much wrong wth M3... Just a new toy came out and he got bumped to the curb.
Very impressive; but then, I'm one who doesn't believe that M3 and V3 are "dead" yet. Grin.
Not bad. I just recently started using M3 (been using only V3 all these years). I like the Christian and Andre morphs/textures for M3.
Wonderful work!!! Well done!!!
fabulous image and great textures/render!!
stunning
Wonderful! I agree, this definitly brings M3's skin equal to or better than some M4's. Great scene and wonderful lighting.
Fantastic render...
excellent image
Wicked shadowing and armor design!
Can't wait to see more.
