hair colour looks a little bit unnatural. i would definitely recommend the 'anna-maria' texture from this pack by catharina, since the 'anna' tex youre using has the problem with the highlight/blackheads on the nose (which is easily fixed in photoshop though with the clone tool) and the lips are a little misaligned. i would do away with the body bump map altogether - looks like the scale of it is too high - noone has bumps THAT big on their skin. just dont use a bump for the body, not really necessary in closeups like this, you want all the attention on the face. as for the shadow with the glasses - for some reason they dont cast a shadow. i believe its partly because transmapped items, no matter how high their areas of opacity, do not cast shadows in poser. as for the frames - items that are very thin do not cast shadows either, unless the spotlight is a few inches away and you have your shadows maps set to insanely high settings. my suggestion - paint in a faint shadow in photoshop with the multiply tool. if you do it on a separate layer you can mess around with the eraser tool and trim the edges. good job, cheers -gabriel
