mysticeagle - much prefer the second render, except that I find the reflection in the eyes a bit too strong. Maybe slightly more defined creases as well, especially the laugh lines? I like the character though!

wimvdb - very impressive quality - can I ask what card you're using? Also, is it possible to alter the RGB values for each texture in Octane? To me the hair has a reddish cast to it which looks mismatched to the scene, I'm wondering if it's possible to make it more neutral. I think I read that Octane has a white balance option but not sure if that's implemented in the plug-in yet - then again, I haven't calibrated my monitor in a while!
