Thank you everyone for the input on Iray rendering. I did further research and ended up rerendering the image with mesh lights. I thought they'd be hard to use, but they weren't. The new render still took a bunch o' time (11 hours), but overall I am happier with the image quality. Of course, I still did some postwork, but nowhere near the extent I did on the blurry render. In addition to switching to mesh lights, I turned off "Bloom" and changed the Gaussian from 1.2 to .75. Between the bunch, Kela's face rendered out much better. Her clothing was still a bit spotty, but I didn't mind that so much since it's supposed to be a textured suede anyway. While I was at it, I moved some of the plants around. I didn't futz too much with it beyond that. I forgot to mention in my last post that I used OOT's IrayPair and its expansion on Kela's hair. Again, I thought it was going to be difficult, but it was very simple to get her green/brown striped hair. I simply applied a brown to one layer of the hair and a green to another and it blended perfectly.
