It's not like they needed to go out of their way to get Elijah looking right. Just give him the Blast Back hairstyle. Instead, we got something that looked suspiciously like a copy-paste job involving Elder Lyons.
I agree, but what I mean is that it was such a quick appearance that they didn't fiddle with a custom texture like they did for Christine or Dog. The face we saw in the image is obviously different from either of the 2 old races in game. What I don't get for Elijah is that to at least make him resemble the face we saw throughout the DLC all you need to do is set the race to the slightly younger old one, add the Blastback hairstyle, fiddle with some sliders, and BAM! Elijah.
