The data available for medieval European males was used to guide the reconstruction of Conquest Man’s face.

Specific features, the shape of the nose, the character of the eyes, the presence of specific facial features, are derived from the underlying skull geometry, supplemented by probabilistic information about features that cannot be directly read from the bones.

Eye color, hair color, skin tone, and the texture of hair cannot be determined from bone alone.

These are informed decisions based on the most likely characteristics given what is known about the population and period.

For Conquest Man, the result was a depiction of a man with gray receding hair, stubble, and hazel eyes.
