Self Portrait - Ghost Recon Style

Over the years I've 3d scanned hundreds of faces for the Ghost Recon franchise. In 2017 I needed banner art for the GPU Technology Conference in San Jose so I thought it'd be cool to turn myself into a character belonging to that universe. I look at some of the artwork for the series and decided to go with the beanie (didn't have a cooler hat) and the desert-like scarf as seen in at least one of the Ghost Recon Wildlands posters. The reason I went with a beanie at all is because my scanners don't pick up hair very well and I couldn't be seen wearing a wig-cap now, could I !? In any case, there you have it. It was put together quickly and the result is pretty nifty, as long as you don't look up close at the eyes, eyelashes and eyebrows ;-)
