Awesome Lady.. .just a shame he's black... hope your lights deal with the shades...
Mec4D
There is not difference between the color shades, the surface reflect the light all the same way, it is all the death gray skin cells, the way here is only to make the good color base, most difficult to create that why I am doing it, this is an deep skin Adventure !
MysticDaniel
any more images of this character? LOL

Not yet for the public, I don't want to spoil everything ;)
