It's not uncommon to see red sunsets or yellow ones. I live in the mountains but have lived in the Great Plains, Hawaii, the Pacific Coast, and 3 different Mountain ranges. The sunsets change color depending on weather and geographic location. I've seen red, orange, yellow, and even violet sunsets. The sunset in post #6 is like a sunset that is almost night like right before the sky starts turning black. The sunset in post #9 would be like a gal on a California beach looking west over the pacific and it's not quite dusk- I'd guess early evening around 6-7 pm?

That last picture of the sister on the beach looks excellent. The mom does have quite a youthful face, and I'd imagine that pose she's in makes it hard to render her well. I admire your determination to get it right, this definitely looks promising!

I like the earlier version of the sister. She looks more realistic and closer to the style of the mom model. Cuter, too. 18 is such an ambiguous age....

Damn. I couldn't stop playing with it. Ok, here's a sample with slight increase in brightness, contrast, and saturation. I'll stop now. :kisskiss:

Also, see if you can find more realistic looking skin textures. I have no idea what's available for the software you're using, but after modding Skyrim for the past 5 years, I'm fairly sure there are some available somewhere. Good luck!

The skin textures are realistic. The lighting and shaders is what makes them look matte. Distance is part of it. I'll show you a close up of her face....

so both versions of "sister" are nearly identical, except for makeup and longer lashes(maybe a slight tweak on one of the head morphs). I just noticed though that what I was calling an "earlier revision" - lacks eyebrows. She only gets them with makeup. Frankly she looks better without it.

Sorry it took so long to reply. Been wrestling with a tooth infection and daz3d. Playing with different lights and so on. I'm amazed how much a difference small changes makes. So here is "earlier revision" of the sister. Rendered on the island, with (nearly) the same facial expression. Only real differences between her and the latter version were makeup, longer eyelashes, and I think some values on a couple of morphs but nothing too dramatic. muah.png

Forgot to mention, I gave her eyebrows here(default skin had very faint ones). And added the pony tail. Adjusted the highlights. I like her better without the ponytail myself, but I'm still incubating things. As a side note, what is your opinion on using "toon shaders"? For example:

I spent the last couple days fiddling with the iray rendering engine - then let this cook for 15 hours. Maybe in the future I can use iray, but for now it's just not practical.
