NOTE: Reworked for a better comparison!

Here is an experiment trying to compare the same character with

1) iSourceTexture textures
2) 3D Scan store textures (ears, face and lips only) in Overlay blend mode over 8.1 textures (I needed certain details like eyes and ears from 8.1 thus avoiding retopology).
3) 3D Scan Textures in "Soft Light" blend mode (to remove shadows inherent of the 3D scanning process).

All rendered in DAZ Studio (I used front view to avoid the stupid camera distortion).

Let me know what you think!

IST Textures:

3D Scan Textures (Overlay)

3D Scan Textures (Soft Light)

AND THE WINNER IS?

iSourceTexture textures looks better by far. I dunno, theres something off putting about the 3D Scan Textures skin.

Honestly the bottom picture just looks like an older version of the top pic with all the blemishes taking shape and showing thru. Though the pigmentation of the lip area especially in the bottom picture looks off. It isn't covering the the full lip area.

I feel like this would be great for people that want to show time progression in a character.

I like the 3D scan better except for the line across the head (because the texture map on the 'neck' portion doesn't match exactly) and the lack of glossy roughness (probably other stuff too) on the lips.
