Hi all;

I have a dilemma with Sharky's Ultimate wings. I wrote Sharky about it weeks ago, but have not heard back. I'm hoping someone knows a fix so I can get back on track and effect such repairs in the future if  this weird problem with any other figure/ prop happens again.

The problem is that the feathers on one side, lets say the left side will be bright as if I have a light on it, but the lower feathers are dark. And on the right wing, the opposite is true, the most of the feathers will be dark but the bottom row will be bright. 

I've experienced it in Poser 6, 7 and Pro. I'm using this in an animation, so post work is not much of an option. Hopefully a sample picture is attached. These wings pose great and I like them more than the Angelya series. But if I can't get color consistency, I need to move on to something else.  I've tryed adding in lots of lights which, of course, wrecks the scene a bit. And I've played with swapping UV and VU in the properties. I'm not sure what they do actually, but I was testing for a way to invert the map in a vain attempt to understand how the feather groups are being illuminated/ shaded.

So, is there something I can do to the CR file? I'm just above a novice at Poser but always willing to get under the hood.

I am open to very good wings that can be posed with multiple verticies, as I don't want to create a flat looking flap. 

Many thanks for any insight you can offer.
