Excellent texture work... it looks like little boy skin (not too damaged or weathered yet). However, please get rid of that stupid everybody-jumps-on-the-wagon eye glint! If you have the sun from the left and the glint from the right, as in your pictures above, it screams "fake" faster than a little stuffed doll with painted eyes. If you don't include the highlight, people can set up the lights and add it themselves (by many and various means). If you include the highlight, people will either have to change their lighting to attempt to match it (which thus encourages conformity), or spend time in PhotoShop getting rid of the darned thing. For things to add? Jug ears and maybe an up-turned nose. A bit of sunburn or freckling will be good, but I suspect that once people have their hands on your morphs (which have done wonders for him!!!) more textures will be coming out. Maclean did a model of bubblegum being blown IIRC.... but no waterballoons in my files. ;^) Yet. Thank you for tackling this, Carolly
