Experiments led me to mistakes... Mistakes led me to a new discovery!
Testing a new skin shader setting, I chose Serah as the subject. Still in experimental process, I'm going to tweak and toy around more with the settings.
My ultimate goal has always been trying to create an CGI quality render like you see in the game. I think I'm getting a bit closer now. there are still many things I need to improve.
I think you're getting closer to your goal ! owo The only think a little bit weird is some line on her nose, it's strange. But everything else is, wow, perfect !
thank you, and yes, you are correct! that shadow line is too dark... doesnt look normal for someone's nose. im still messing around with the shaders now, gonna try to come up with a different result
