    Thanks Edgar! Yeah I only included displacements because cycles doesn't support normal maps yet, I should have included them anyways though. You can download theme from here though:

    There were 4.876 million polys at the highest sub level for the sculpt. Thanks

    It's CC0 - no attribution required (not my model, just answering as a courtesy for others).

    If you're using it in a video, it's always good to give the creator credit or at least let them know where possible.

    Hi guys thanks for all the great comments! Just wanted to let everyone know that when I setup this scene I was using an older version of cycles so some things wont work properly in newer versions (normal maps for example). I'm currently working on updating the blend so that everything is compatible with the latest version of cycles (2.61rc1) and will upload an updated blend as soon as I can. I'm also working on creating a scene for render with blender internal and will upload that as a separate blend as well. Thanks again for all the great feedback!

    I'm trying to set this skull up in a scene, but it won't render with it's given materials. All I get is a glossy skull, basically. None of the normal maps or diffuse mapping is working. Any clue as to why? I've used a pre-BMesh and post-BMesh Win7-x64 build of 2.62, and I get the same results regardless.

    You have to save the images from blender to your harddrive before it will work and reload them into the node editor to work.

    This maybe a silly question, but does anyone know why the skull looks pink when I render it in Cycles? I have had this problem with other blend files from Blendswap. Could someone please let me know what may be causing this.

    Hey guys, how you do that ? because I am a newbie... ;)

    Open the packed .blend, go into "File"-->"External Data"-->"Unpack Into Files" and select where you want the textures to go. You may have to go into the Cycles nodes and point to the new location, but that's about all you'll have to do.

    I think this file is broken in newer Blender versions. I'm getting a matte black skull. Nothing like in the preview image. The textures are packed and the node setup looks correct to me.
