go with Elanor (CCrow) and settings in case this is what you are looking for:


I should have stated(its my fault for not doing so) Its for gen8. I have plenty of stuff for g9 but her underarms drive me nuts.

I have a few of the cynderblue, I have a couple of Alfan, etc. They have great details. But not what I am looking for.
Washing a character out, is not the same as pale skin.

Just like you cant take a Caucasians texture and simply darken it to make it ethnic.

I have twiddled with gamma to make it appear lighter. I have twiddled with render settings. Its not doing what I need.


I am very familiar with what pale skin looks like. I am dang near ghost white. Simply washing it out, doesnt work.
There is a particular luminance, translucency that comes with it.

I am utterly confused why this seems so controversial.

I mean, not being funny, but I did look in several marketplaces. I have googled. I have tried different render settings. I am not looking for render settings. I am looking for an actual texture that is pale. I have even tried the Asian textures, as they tend to be a particular type of pale.


Simply looking at a promo shot doesnt give you the context if the texture works in "real world" if you will. That was why I am asking for peoples opinion as to their actual experience with different packages.
Its not a hard concept.
As I cant "test drive" a package, its logical to ask people who may HAVE used various texture packages how well they work, how they look, etc.
