Here is the final texture I am going to use for her face makeup. I decided that I was trying to hard for real, and decided to go for "believable unbelievability", to coin a movie industry term.

Looking at different 3D treatments of the Crow, the Joker, et al, I see that no matter what you do, the texture will never completely look real. We are messing with pixels and not real paint. This isn't makeup over skin, it's pixels over pixels. So I could keep fighting with it, try using all the latest tricks and gadgets, or get it to look cool even if it is rendered in default lighting (which it is). So this is what I came up with.

I have to go in and tweak the suit. Seems that I left it a bit too thin in some spots, and when I went for a pose that takes her off all three axis', the suit tears up like Elvis' jumpsuits did in the 70's.

If I had a nickle for ever time a woman told me to get lost, I could buy Manhattan.
