Here's a "G"-rated version of a quasi-finished product to share a couple of tips on character rendering postwork:

  1. It's usually a good idea to add some softening to the image to remove harsh details.  The Vue post options lens glare can sometimes work for this but the Photoshop/PSP softening filters are usually better.

  2. Employ something which helps to separate the characters from the background to give it some depth such as DOF blur, adding background point lights, etc. 

  3. Adjust the brightness-contrast levels in photoshop or alternatively, the Vue post options "Gain" slider can sometimes work for this as well.
