This is a clear example of how the process of laying out UVs can create issues of distortion. See how the checker pattern gets larger in convex areas such as the nose, lips, and chin. This is common problem when using "relaxing" tools; a quick fix is to proportionally scale such areas and then relax again.

I taught a class with CGMA and this was a large part of the content. We covered the creation of a digital double from reference imagery. I decided to do a self portrait as the demonstration. It was a fun exercise in modeling and sculpting. I shot all of the photographic reference for the modeling portion and then shot a second round of reference with a cross polarized light setup to be used for texture painting. The eyes are from my Gumroad Tutorial for those interested - https://gumroad.com/l/IbsQy Sculpted in Mudbox, high frequency bump painting in mudbox as well. Texture painting was in Mudbox and I used ZBrush fibermesh for hair. Final rendering was done with Marmoset Toolbag 2. I post processed it with Photoshop and Lightroom.
