That's the understatement of the year. There's a long way before anything will make actual real skin refractions as good as a real person, but, the results, with the right lighting, overall environment and post-editing are very plausible and convincing
I think you're right. I wonder if this depends more on the correct settings or on iray technology as such.
a bit of both, actually. Sadly, my hardware isn't, at the moment, capable to render full resolution Iray renders, to give a proper demonstration, but, on Poser's firefly engine, as well as in DAZ's biased 3Delight older engine, there have been some jaw-dropping masterworks ove the years, with enough realism to seriously fool the untrained eyesI think you're right. I wonder if this depends more on the correct settings or on iray technology as such.
Yes, even on 3Delight. JC Soto has done some pretty amazing renders,Even on 3Delight?
Yeah, light level, but the iray skin is much better now. Less realistic, it looks more like a doll with 3Dlights.
True. But, we all often fall into the easy traps, in our search for shiny (pretty literally in this particular example), impressive eye candy. We overdo it. We want ALL the detail, ALL the skin pores, ALL the miniscure little skin folds, and we forget that, in the real world, 90% of all that detail isn't even noticable. We have way too many comics/pinup art that's full of shiny, oil-coated like models, that make zero sense, other than draw the eye to them
Certainly, but the purpose of the SSS is to fill these gaps. When the light passes through the lobe of the ears we'll be good.
It's funny, but after reading your post, I thought that make-up and post-processing can make a photo of a real person less realistic than some cool render.
The best script for me to make a character more realistic but don't let it be too bright. Use "Normal" script and the difference is there. Even SSS doesn't do any better.
Agreed. And, it technically does, but, the results are too prone to turn... funky. I'll cook a render, once my current one finishes, in Poser, to demonstrate just the level of funky SSS can generate, with the wrong lighting (although, for some fantasy renders, it's not funky, it's godsent gift of chance).
*coughs* yeah, ahem... maybe? *hides under the desk, for good measure*It's funny, but after reading your post, I thought that make-up and post-processing can make a photo of a real person less realistic than some cool render.
hey, i actually like the squirt prop. Mind telling me where you got it?

It's the one already included within Golden Palace as a bonus! I just modified the color since the default one.. looks like more of a pee than an actual squirt xD
