Quote - And here's the same render after I've applied one of the CRF's. Makes a huge difference. Adds depth and makes the entire image seem more lifelike. If you look on the left side of the screen capture you can see which CRF I've used for this image. There are a few to choose from. Try em out and see what you think :). The only difference between the first image and the second is the application of the CRF. I didn't change lighting or any other setting.

The figure is V4 with GND4's texture map and I used Snarly Skin in the exporter.

I'm ever so keen to try all this, Laurie! And thank you for finding all this out and calling our attention to it. Lux is a blast to play with: what a HUGE difference from: "okay, start rendering and keep your fingers crossed". The fact that we can change things during the render: no way can I go back to "invoke and pray" rendering.
