it depend of your vision of geralt he apparently have a relatively strong nose and proeminent chin so your best options are
blaviken mesh from banjomir
geralt face shape from the cgi trailer theres a few mods for that so either look up for "a night to remember" or "gwent card geralt"
another option would be to go after witcher one geralt mesh again there's a few option, the mod of raysu showcase one, lascaroman did one too and i know a third one called the original geralt of rivia
Last option is going for witcher 2 design that most people argue its the best design a mod directly port the mesh but it's not compatible with other textures but there is one that is called witcher 2 styled geralt that work and is relatively similar
Thanks for the reply Witcher 1 Geralt meshes don't have good implementation aside from Raysu edit and the raysu edit doesn't have the strong nose i guess if someone combined blavikenmesh with the Raysu edit it would look good i guess and for The Witcher 2 styled Geralt looks like the most authentic W1 adaptation? example image here and which one would you use personally?
well witcher 2 styled geralt look like witcher 2 geralt but i think it's mainly how cdpr aimed to make him back then but couldn't due to their limitation, a lot of concept art and artwork of w1 geralt face look closer to witcher 2 i use often witcher 2 styled geralt it's one of the rare mod where the author made a compatibility patch for burning HoS mark (even if it's not usefull with that specific mod due to how i shaped the mark of odimm
personally for that texture i made i use mainly gwent card geralt that is based on his cgi face like on the images i shared above, otherwise witcher 2 styled geralt is good too worst case if you really can't decide try all style take a screenshot of each and you can make to post on the subreddit wiedzmin where people often share book accurate content you might have recommendation
nope due to the mark to have a different shape they are incompatible
edit i thought you meant it was compatible with the burning mark mod it have a retexture for the HoS mark but it's of different shape you can partially see it on pic 6
i'll see what i can do but i'll have to move the cheek scar on the other side to rebalance things otherwise i fear it would be too much plus i'll need to come up with a unique scar design cause i don't like the vanilla cocatrice scar and i don't want to use someone else design maybe i'll use the one i made for true albinos geralt but idk yet need time to think
That would be great. Personally not a fan of the true albinos version. I suppose you could move it to the left side of his face to balance it out. Also, have you made the face wider, or does it only appear like you have in the screenshots? I use the Wise Wolf mod and it seems a bit slimmer. Not meant to be a critique, though.
i didn't edit the model it's just retexture it will look different depending on wich mesh you use in the screenshots presented here it's either banjomir blaviken mesh or Gwent Card Night to Remember Geralt Face like i indicated in description tab
i looked up wise wolf don't have any mesh included so i think it's just cause he used character face improved as a base that the uv map and texture map play with how light react to make the cheeks seems more hollow here is a comparison
there's also the possibility to use geralt head tweaks that just edit slightly the witcher 3 face and make it longer making it look thinner
in the end you have many options to make geralt look unique with various face texture + mesh mods
Thanks for the answer. I don't quite get it. If I wanted to use your retexture but make it look as close to the slim way it looks with wise wolf, what would you suggest?
i guess i would suggest to look on nexus and find something that match what you want there's no magical solution unfortunately if i had made my mod on the base of character face improved then maybe it would have been as slim look as wise wolf
Ok, thanks. What have you used in your last picture, or is it just your mod? Also, do you plan on adding the game scar, or are you happy with the way your mod looks now?
yes when i release a texture mod it's fully supported for every variant

Hi, can you make a separate version of the mod that adds only the scar on his cheek that he got in the fight with Verena, like in the Polish series of 2001?That would be great)
It is good but I would really like a younger version. Geralt is about 60 in the books, but witchers are supposed to age more slowly, here he looks like he is over 100. I mean, it is not just this retexture, it is all Geralt retextures. I know it is hard to make him look younger but I would really appreciate it if you tried.
honestly i don't think i will, he doesn't look old here and honestly beyond removing the eyebags as i showed in another reply the textures there's not a lot left to remove to make him look younger beyond that without loosing into quality
i agree geralt should look young as he is 41 at the begining of the last wish and with witchers aging ect....
geralt is born in 1211 and the last wish start from the info i gathered in 1252. 1252-1211=41 considering in the "main saga" he start at his early 40's even with taking into account the slowed down againg there's still the rough life he had his look work well
you should try a mesh i suggested in the description tab or yet another vgx geralt i suggested in the comments it can trully affect how old he look for exemple those two are the same texture on two different mesh
