Anyway, Since I've had Ali's Hr-159 for quite a while, and hadn't use it recently, I figured that should be a good one to start with.  The first 2 renders below are with Hr-159, the first using the Vertical Blonde 2 Shader, and the second using the Vertical Red 2 Shader.

Nice color and shine. I do think this one would benefit from a little more bump and some more work on the transparency map though.

The trans map is the one provided with Ali's Hr-159 Hair set, and I used it according to Ghostship's instructions in the PDF file he included with his set of Shaders.  That said, however, I do agree the trans map seemed to do a better job on my first attempt, with the lighter shade for the hair.  I also believe it's a lighting thing, since I just did quick renders with my default lighting.  I am planning on doing better renders with better lighting, which should help a good deal.

As far as the bump map goes, Ghostship set those up with each of his Shaders so, again, I think better lighting may help with that as well.
