The shroud is like most of the 'relics' such as the 'true cross', the nails which crucified Jesus, the Spear of Longinus, the seamless robe, the Veil of Veronica, the Holy Grail etc. It is far more likely that the Romans would have made certain that his remains were treated with the disdain they thought they deserved. Since Jesus 'offense' was political (claiming to be a king) it is highly unlikely that the Romans would have allowed his body to have been turned over to a wealthy man to be given the burial of a wealthy, respected person. Part of ancient punishments usually involved desecration of the body and this remained true up through the 18th century in many places. They were usually left on the cross for the carrion to feed on or best case scenario tossed into a common grave. The gospels say that Jesus was buried but that would have been a very unusual outcome for a crucifixion. Are you telling me his hair would show up on the front sheet, but no evidence of any private parts are showing through? Is it that freakishly long left forearm that is covering it up? Maybe it stretched while he was hanging up there? You might get a chin and the tip of a nose and a forehead.

If that is not the case, how are you getting the mustache detail without literally pressing the cloth into his face? Is it picking up skin oil? No mustache would show up. If this is the case, there would be a projection - you wouldn't have a flat canvas.

If it's not a fresh cloth, and this is the one they wrapped him in after taking him off the cross, then it would be blood and smudges all over the place. Corpses don't bleed unless you use gravity and open a decent sized artery.
