I'm honored.  Thanks and congratulations to the other artists as well:)

Quote - I'm using the Ah environment light, I have ambient occlusion bias set very low, something like .013 and still I get glowing nostrils - am I doing something wrong?

Maybe you could post all of your settings.  I'm not sure which setting you mean by "occlusion bias" (Environment map saturation maybe).
This has only happened to me when I tried using a regular jpg image instead of a Tif converted Hdr source.

I've tried SS in premium with 1024 quality and couldn't really see a difference.  I'm wondering if it has something to do with the position of the IBL light itself.  I changed the default position to one that has the light coming somewhat from the side.  In the default position I have one hard shadow, after changing I get several overlapping shadows.  Thanks for the suggestions.

Quote - I think this update is for the Hexagon to Studio bridge that will be available with Hexagon 2.5.

That's right, plus some other fixs.   The bridge is there now but doesn't work with Hex 2.2.  Hex 2.5 should be coming later this month. 

Here it is.[
