Very nice render, however could have been improved via either Dformer or mesh smoothing on the couch at the elbow and knee. It's knit-picking, but I just want every render to be the best it can be.

I believe you may be a bit off the mark with this comment. A HDRI is basically a sphere that surrounds the scene that also acts as a light source. You can change the sharpness / blurriness of the HDRI by playing around with the diameter of the finite sphere (to a limit) or by changing the focal length of the camera (smaller = sharper background).
I took a look at the HDRI series you recommended and from what I can tell it isn't any different from any other HDRI, expect for the supply of a number of buttons to adjust the DAZ camera and environment settings. If you are familiar with these, you are basically paying more for nothing. To demonstrate, I created the following series of renders demonstrating control of HDRI as it relates to depth of field.

What did you use to create the skins for Luna and Keva? They look great!This was a colossal headache. 6 characters and I had all sorts of loading issues, memory fail issues, crashes, etc. I can definitely understand why people keep scenes simple for the most part. Ended up having to render in parts and combine in Photoshop. Just wanted to have an image of all the ladies together.
Anyone have any tricks they've run into when rendering with multiple characters on screen at once? I have a 1080 and a 1070, and I know they don't pool vram so I have the 8gigs, but man, feels like after 2-3 characters and you're out of memory and have crashes, slowdowns, etc.
Anyhoo, so which is the lady of your dreams?

Mmmm delicious!!
Skin builder 3 and Skin Builder 8 are my go to for custom skinsI really hate viewing this damn thread! LOL. So many fantastic renders, so much good info for improving your own!
I'm looking for a couple of skins for G3F/G8F and hoping someone here can help me.
1. One that has a dark areolas.
2. A skin that has a darker edge to the areola. Like a dark ring around it. Kind of likeYou must be registered to see the links, though it's a bit faint.
Barring that, any hints on creating or editing an existing skin. I'm not great with photoshop, but I can follow a tutorial. I've also thought about maybe applying a LIE image. Getting a good natural edge had proven difficult in the past.
Thanks
