Mcfarlane has been using similar digital printing technology to Hasbro. Neca uses it as well. Their workflows may be different but digital printing has been seen on figures like Rebirth Superman(but not The Solar Suit version).

Actually looking at those two, I'd say the issue is mostly on sculpt. A weak sculpt is a weak sculpt. A better paint can help it out. But a good sculpt works even with a mediocre paint job.

Despite not having all the paint and shading, the bearded Superman head looks great. Even going back to the first Superman release in the line. The face was solid.

Yes Henry Cavil's face has been all over the place. Same man with different haircuts. The three normal sculpts Mcfarlane has done have been pretty week and they don't look like the same man.

They either don't push the sculpt further for it's scale or it's just not the person. I also feel they are sculpting in the wrong perspective.

Not all figures look off but when they get it right, it stands out.
