Rhyi with darker skin texture. Keeping both up though. For some reason I was not able to use Luxrender for the final render so used DAZ internal render engine which is why it has a more cartoony look to it.

    I think what I dislike about the DAZ internal render engine is that the eyes look flat and unrealistic. I know it's a poor workman who blames his/her tools for shoddy work though. I think it's probably some setting that I'm messing up or something.

    I see what you mean about the eyes. But I really appreciate your willingness to experiment with the skin color! And hey, her eyes are supposed to be slightly unfocused and clouded. Maybe it's just her cataracts that are showing here.

    A lot of the eyes DO look flat in Daz. I think sometimes it's the faces you use - some faces come with amazing eye options, others are just blah. And rendering can change the look too, so don't think it's you, because most likely, it isn't (unless it is!). I'm super picky about the eyes I use - also, for this pic, maybe try reshaping the lacrimals around the pupils?

    Yeah, I think the lighting might be contributing to the flat look too. I'll play with it later.
