Description

A morphed V4.2 with the Lana Elite texture A hobbyist's (me) attempt to get CLOSER to realistic skin, using the Simple Skin node mostly. In simple form I have taken the skin texture and created a reddened version for the middle layer, and a yellowed version for the subdermis. I get better results than just using the red/yellow color defaults. I've seen better with resort to advanced projection mapping, Zbrush, mudbox etc.I have Photosphop and Lightwave

Thanks MysticDaniel Is that a render of a Lightwave model from ir_models? Are you happy with it? I was considering buying a LW character model from them. The node they show for the Digital Lookalike- known as "Angel" on Daz-is nearly exactly what I am using above-but I don't have that cool luminosity map they are using.

Lucy is miffed that the diamonds are missing from this sky. She was always a bit naive, we all remember the golden streets fiasco. Looks pretty good. I will be messing with SSS in the very near future.
