I didn't smooth any faces before importing it, just separated and assigned the eye textures. The .obj model doesn't have any special groups(arm, hand, head, leg), or even, a .mat included so, you have to wade through about some 300 'cylinder/sphere/box/etc's to texture it.
He's also still in his Jesus Christ Pose because of this, which is why I have only rendered the upper head and chest.
The model is fantastically made, though, so just TG's smooth normals works a treat.
