BluEcho: Thanks for the info! It so happens that I have some pictures of that lady in my collection of reference images. But since I renewed my subscription some time ago, I can download more.

As for the lips: as bagginsbill said, you can play with the shine parameters for the lip zone. You can also try to change the tint for the lips. Look at the VSS material set included in the new preview. For really good quality, a mask should be used to control the effect, but I've been too lazy to do that.

One thing I found is that bump maps seem to work better - as least for the lips - when you just take the desaturated color map without inverting.

bagginsbill: Is it okay if I post my modified VSS control prop for Antonia here? I've added some extra rules and templates for the toecaps and the lips, and also a rule for "mouthInner", which wasn't covered by the original rules.

momodot: Nice job playing with the scaling. I like how you made her look all bubbly in the last one. Very cute! Also good to see her in a real scene, even if it's a minimalist one.

Fisty: The hair and dress look absolutely adorable. When you linked to the hair, I had a feeling it would look great on Antonia.

I think I need to make a proper smile morph quickly. No offense to Joel, but that cartoon smile with the bendy lips looks unsettling.
