Adding Bump and Specular Effect

Creating the bump effect was quite easy. I used the material of my face to make an embossed effect in Photoshop and then put it onto the material to create a better effect of the face. The picture below shows the face with the material and how it was achieved. I also used the noise feature to make my face look a little more realistic.














This is the embossed looking picture that I created to go on the material. It is very faint but there are small black lines in the picture.














To create the specular effect I had to use Photoshop again and paint 'lighten' lines along the face where a shine needs to appear. I applied the picture onto the specular part of the material map to give the face more of a shine in the right place.













The picture below shows the picture I used to create a shine effect on the face.
