While you're doing good work here with skills I do not possess, I think the aesthetics aren't quite there. The men clearly have the same face, just different hair colors and facial hair. The women look severely swollen. Everybody just has a "Cro-Magnon" or "Neandertal" look to them. It's great to have normal mapped heads in the end, whatever the aesthetic.

Very nice. We definitely could do that on a few things like this to save some triangles.

The Suebian knot here looks much better than the current one.

Can you make it so there is not so much wasted texture memory with transparency ? E.g bake on a 128x256 or something

Just easier for modder readability if horizontal, is all.

I try to leave a space in blank in case an accesory is needed like jewelry or prop's. but will do a 2nd round of baking later with a 1024x512 rendering if needed.

Is the normal map correct for the women's faces? Something odd happening with their cheekbones.
