Urgh this is annoying.  I will keep trying to post it but in the mean time:

 

yes I was using a light with AO.  I just tried it with a light with no AO and it looks much better.

I am super confused though as I've always used the same light set (with AO) and results before have never been this hideous :(

 

Thank you SO much
