    thank you!

    i see, that preview doesn't have strong light on Emily's right, while on my render right ear is lit.

    it would be also great if you add to item 6: "... for all of them, but keep png in sRGB color space."
    you can also add a newbie reminder to change shading to smooth :)
    anyway, great job setting up materials.

    @skarkkai thanks for this blend! I followed your instructions however I think there is something wrong with displacements because my render looks too smooth. https://imgur.com/a/hgN4P3I Do you have any ideas what might be wrong?

    Yes that was already checked. I've tried in Blender 2.93 as well as the new 3.0 and smooth/plastic skin in both situations

    For months I've been trying to save up for a half‑decent smartwatch, but life keeps getting in the way. A colleague casually mentioned afk spin the other day, so I thought why not give it a go. I found a slot with a fantasy theme, lost a few spins, then nudged my bet upward. A massive multiplier hit and suddenly I was much closer to that watch. The interface was clean and the games loaded fast on my phone. The whole experience felt smoother than I expected, especially for a site that deals in CAD.
