It looks scanned to me, just not that good of a scan, it's definitely not a generic face. And i don't think the artist started creating faces from scratch (like Kris Bryant last year) until last year.
CD guys brought it up a few years back (Ramone has also liked many posts pertaining to the subject). He doesn't have a scan the character artists have tried to do the best they can with his face, but you can tell it's not a scan. SCEA has also asked him to do some mo cap stuff a while back he declined. Maybe I shouldn't have said refused and should have used declined to participate. Like I've said before it's not mandatory for players to get their face scanned when SCEA shows up to do them. Who knows maybe he has one now, but in previous versions that isn't the case. Like Cory said it's not uncommon for a player to not want their likeness in a videogame or anything for that matter. I'm not going to argue or get into a back and forth discussion I'm just letting some people know what I know from what we've been told over the years.
