ORIGINS
This mod origins a bit unusual, it created as a mix of a few other mods (textures) with minor edits:
- Tidus HD Re-Texture 8K and 4K (by Catachrism)
- Tidus Old Face HD (by Breruz)
- original Tidus HD Remaster textures.

"Tidus HD Re-Texture 8K and 4K" basically is base of the mod, as texture it is 93% of final result.
Other 7% is belong to texture of Tidus face, which is used from mod "Tidus Old Face HD", which is also built on "Tidus HD Re-Texture 8K and 4K".



WHY?
As we know there are a lot of comparisons exists between Tidus face from PS2 and Remastered versions. Also it is not a secret that some people don't like Tidus face in the Remastered version, saying it look is too young (aka "baby face"), and other issue that Remaster Tidus-face is not the same as it was in original PS2 version.

It is really hard task to get perfect face from PS2 version (especially when you are not a professional artist), but my idea was to try to mix these mentioned textures (with taking the best from all them) and with adding some manual improvements.


WHAT I ACTUALLY DID?
Inside the texture of "Tidus HD Re-Texture 8K and 4K" mostly nothing, but only a few changes:
- Used hair from original texture,
- Some parts of textures (like front body) are also taken from original, because they are more brighter,
- Removed eyebrow, because inside the mod "Tidus Old Face HD" it is a bit more intense.
- Eye(s) from this mod will be covered with a new version (check details below).

Regarding of the mod "Tidus Old Face HD", I've decided that there is space for improvement and enhancement still exists, so here is what I did:
• Skin under eyebrow got some polishing.
• I used my own version of eye(s). It is aslo too close to the PS2 version. I changed reflects on pupil, to make it look not so bright and more natural.
• A bit remorked shadows under eye(s).
• Changed look of shadows around the nose (actually this single task took a lot of time).
• Changed look of lips - mouth a bit wider and also made lower lip to be more darker.
• Cheek and lower face part (around chin) are also got some enchancements and become a bit brighter.
• During all changes applied, it is naturally that some face parts now become to be look a bit different, than was in "Tidus Old Face HD".



FINAL RESULT
It was unexpected of how eventually all things and improvements are hold together. Definitely Tidus face now somewhere in middle: it is closer to PS2 version (but not the same), and there are also familiar parts from Remastered version. But I guess should be less explanantions here, because images and video of final results are speak by themself.

During creating this mod I used resolution 2048x2048, so, yeah, final result is in 2k.
Regarding to the popular 4k/8k versions, maybe these versions will be added in future with using upscale method.
