Well, now all details are lifted up through FG/GI, gosh, J, it's great great great

Post applying the occlusion pass or relying on the one simulated through FG ?
(asking cause this pass would probably darken the inner lips join as inner eyebrows, etc .... well, this pass would definitely add some volume, which is great already, true )

Her now "Dark and Judging Look in the eye" looks lot more better. Seems just like she thinks smthg about you J :p

awesome work! sorry I hadn't been able to comment earlier due to book/newjob issues.

The biggest thing that keeps drawing my eye is her hair specularity. It seems very... hmmm It's almost like she has these frozen soda formations on her head. lol Sorry, I don't know how to explain it. The specular sheen isn't being broken up by the displacement or bump to help convey strands of hair and instead seems like a slick surface. Does that make sense?

Nice job though, that's for sure!

jesus that is one huge leap!! Just Fantastic! has to be some of the best work ive seen on simply maya!!!

THX1138: It's very important to me here this words from, because I know how critic you are and that I you have a great knowledge about these areas of 3D (lighting, rendering, etc). Be sure I did the best I could, and here are my results. Thank you for all your help during this challenge, it was REALLy useful. I hope we could meet on next challenge.
Pyrus: Thanks Pyrus. Unfortunatelly, I didn't get the thing about render passes/layers in time, so all you is seeing was made by a single render, with FG. But you live, you learn, and next challenge I'll be able to make use of this things if necessary. Thanks for all your great advices during the challenge!
Mike: I know about the hair. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to solve this thing of specularity on hair... A pitty. But I learned many things during this challenge, and this was worthwhile already. I hope you have much success with your new book and your new job! Thanks!
tick135: Thanks dude. I made all "drastic" changes today, and I had no idea if people here would like. Fortunatelly, it seems I was successful on my changes! Again, I'd like to thank you for all your help during these two months.
arran: Thanks dude. I'm always trying to go "to the infinity and beyond", like Buzz Lightyear! My only limitations are my knowledge of Maya, that are not so great yet. But bit by bit, we arrive there.
magicsy: Thanks magcsy. I made all changes today, it was a holiday here, and I took the day to improve my model.

I'm glad too see you liked my changes. I did most of them yesterday and just posted on final entry. Fortunatelly they work! Thanks again for you all.
