To my eye perhaps a bit more reflectivity. The skin looks a tad dry-bu then again-we don't set an air temperature or humidity parameter in our renders. :-) Perhaps she just came out of a colder room?

Quote - The shader I have come up with is quite good at keeping the original texture colour, mainly thanks to the seperate diffuse layer.  Texture detail can be controlled directly with the surface_color parameter in the custom_scatter node.  Higher = harder or more detail preservation and less scattering visibility.  To get a good medium, both surface_color and mean_free_path need to be modified in opposites. Ones goes up, one goes down.

 

I would love to find a character vendor who would work with me to create a real SSS character for Poser!

 

EricWalters - Looking at the comparison between the two, what would you say needs to be changed with my shader?
