Ah - well I deduce that your lighting is very low.

The diffuse reflection on kitty's belly is not even producing 128. Assuming you're using my typical .8 Diffuse_Value, that means your light level is:

((127 / 255) ** 2.2) / .8 = about .27

This (.8 white) is also what the level is of the base coat.

The BRG tint is very dark and will overwhelm that.

You can do two things - increase the overall light levels by nearly 4x, or make the Candy Thickness lower.


Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
