As to prefering red- there are times when caucasian skin reflects red-but certainly not in ALL lighting situations- and not evenly over all the skin either. I am test rendering a very fair- "Irish" skin right now- Danae's "Dublin"-which should have a bit of red to it. Once again, on left-the face, head, and lips are using Templar's version 9 and the right is using EZ skin-this time with the slider for mean path (not named that) set to allow more translucence than with the previous Angel V4 render.

Quote - Eric, when you click a colour paramter, that chooser comes up with the rainbow looking box on it.  In the top-right corner of that box is a little RGB icon, click that.

 

Its clear that EZSkin is either adding or keeping alot more red from the original texture compared to mine.

Question : Do you like the red-ness or prefer the more nuetral look of my shader?  I personally like mine better, I find the EZ skin to look too red.  Some highlight areas of my shader are white-ing out though, which I will work on.
