Post-processing, such as sanding and painting, can further enhance its realism, allowing you to add subtle shading to the clothing and hair. For digital applications, the model can be integrated into historical scenes, virtual museums, or educational simulations, providing an engaging visual representation of 18th-century fashion and portraiture.
