Thanks folks, I truly appreciate all the feedback... I know that I'm really pushing this particular pose here, but unfortunately, she has to be in this pose to be carrying something... My first inkling was to fix it in post, but I figured, perhaps there is somethign I'm not doing... Ladynimue and others, believe me I've used the dials, anything and everything that I thought would make a difference, starting from scratch each time, and no matter how careful I was, I would wind up with the same results each time... Luckily, the figure is going to be in the distance, so the hands won't show, I'll just fix the forearm joint in post.. thank you all for your help... I'll post the picture when I'm finished... :)
