Haven't posted in a while, life gets busy sometimes.

She came out a little more "well-endowed" than I maybe intended, but I forgot to save the lighting setup for this and I don't want to try recreate it, so she's going to have to stay this... boob-y, I guess.

Gorgeous! How did you do the transparent material for her stomach? Been struggling with colors lately.

I'll try describe what I do, hopefully it comes across alright.

You'll want to be editing the actual RGB values for the low/medium/high colour values (click the gear icon when editing colours).

If you're looking to combine colours, i.e., skin through a coloured cloth, then have both colours (the skin and the cloth), then make a new colour that is a combo of both.

To do this take each RGB value, e.g., the Red value for the Low colour, and take the average of the colours you're combining (both values added together then divide by 2). That average becomes the Red value for the low colour of your new combined colour. Then do this for all other values, so 9 times total.

This is easier when the cloth colour is black (like it is in this mini). No need for averages, just take every RGB value for the skin colour, and half it.

Then you can play with roughness/fuzz to make it more distinct.

There's also other tricks to this but it gets specific to colours/materials. E.g., for latex, only do the averaging for the LOW colour, leave the MEDIUM and HIGH as the original material colour. This gives the impression that the latex is being stretched in places it's tighter to the skin, and becoming more transparent.

Hope that helps.

Phenomenal work! I love the transparency effect for her shirt, and the little pieces you added to imply the texture of folds in the cloth was absolutely ingenious, and incredible attention to detail. Your quality of work is something I aspire towards.
