Well I definitely see the improvement from the IBL you put in. See how the shadow is softened in her armpit and other areas where it used to be black?

Where is Light 2 positioned? I don't see highlights anywhere. It's wierd because I see a shadow on her left shoulder. Is that shadow from her head or arm? If so, the light is pointing the wrong way.

The exact position of Light 2 doesn't matter but it has to be pointing at her front. If you zoom out and look down at her, you should see her long shadow behind her on the ground.

Another tip I forgot to mention. It helps to turn off the IBL and do a render with the other light alone. This makes sure you are getting highlights where you want. Whenever you add more lights, it really helps to test render one at a time so you know what affect each is having. Use the properties tab to flip them on/off without changing their intensity. I think you can double click the light dragger widgets or something too.

Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
