Angelous cultry, i used the one.. called "Minitut - Dramatic light and shadows for portraits - NO NOSTRIL GLOW" Man, the way he gets it it's soo much better than mine. He uses victoria but i don't know how he gets better results than me. Maybe he's using another texture? And he doesn't even use Real Skin shader, i dont' think. so it's impressive. If bagginsbill is around here, how did you get the silky skin? I tried all the settings you mentioined( e xcept for anything about the shading cameras, i couldn't follow that part)
