I don't like how they've changed the appearance of some of the characters.

Is it just me or have they tacked some truly huge fake boobies to an asian mossthingy? Looks less like a scientist and more like a 'ho dressed as a scientist. and grigori looks stupid too.

If fakefactory is the one I saw a couple of weeks ago, then yes they turned mossman into an asian with huge funbags. There was a one a few years ago I saw (maybe a much older version of fake factory again) that made gman look worse than the original, it was higher resolution, but just a terrible job at making something look like human skin

Yeah this must just be an update because this mod has been out there for a while and while the level of detail is nice, the guys have no clue how to make a character.
