Hello!

Has or does someone know a nice recipe for a good working skin SSS shader?
I tried with mixing a specular with a diffuse shader with transmissions, specular medium etc.
It looked very well in my test area but when I it onto the character in the final scene,
it somehow looked darker and grey.

Thanks for help in advance,
Eddy

Hi,
I usually use the LiveDB (plastics, liquids) and, then, I will modify these according to my needs. Skin looks like skin only with a decent texture map, bump map and normal map. Isn't there a skin shader in the Misc section?
Best wishes,
Thomas
