Summary
OneStarfieldplayer managed to create an impressive Brad Pitt doppelganger in Bethesda’s latest game. Their achievement adds to the steadily growing pile ofremarkably designedStarfieldcharactersthat have surfaced online since the RPG’s September launch.
The game’s fandom has already authored a variety of inspired protagonist designs based on both fictional characters likeRed Dead Redemption 2’s Arthur Morgan and real-life people like Chris Hadfield, the former commander of the International Space Station. The latter group has so far been dominated by actors, as underlined by theStarfieldrecreations of Willem Dafoe, Leonardo DiCaprio, and many other celebrities that have been circulating on social media in recent weeks.
The latest example of that trend is a remarkable Brad Pitt lookalike that was recently designed by Reddit user bwv1056. Apart from a single scar deliberately placed over his left eye, thisStarfieldcharacter is a spitting image of the famous actor. The player seemingly opted to base their protagonist on an early-40s Pitt with a shaved head, as the end result of their design efforts looks extremely similar to the actor’s appearance in Doug Liman’s 2005 comedyMr. and Mrs. Smith.
This Brad Pitt doppelganger impressed enoughStarfieldfans to end up on the front page of the game’s largest subreddit over the weekend, prompting many players to bestow praise upon bwv1056 for their design skills. Elaborating on their achievement, the player revealed they relied on the Extended Facial Sculpting mod by Nexus Mods user Allnarta in order to finalize this design. The mod in question reworks theStarfieldcharacter creatorto quite a substantial degree, expanding it with several dozen sliders that allow for even more granular appearance controls.
The Extended Facial Sculpting mod also increases the value ranges of select appearance sliders, while completely overhauling others with the goal of making them more straightforward to use. The latter change helps address one of the biggest points of criticism that the fandom has raised about character creation inStarfieldsince the game’s release, its lack of intuitiveness. Namely, the vanilla character creator is full of sliders that are all labeled as “shape blends” and come with nothing further in the way of explanation, thus requiring a lot of trial and error to use effectively.

That said, the space suit that the character is wearing in the screenshot that bwv1056 shared on Reddit can’t be found in the base game, but is part of the Exile Armor Skins and Helmet Glow Variants mod by Nexus Mods user ExoWarlock313.
