Honestly, it amazes me how much these test renders help me detect issues with the shapes. The semi-realistic skin and lighting seem to be triggering the uncanny valley function in my brain. Smooth untextured is great for finding and fixing lumps, but the subtle "not quite human-looking“ issues I sometimes miss. Oh, and by the way, I did more shape-tweaking since making these renders. The back looks much better now and I also fixed some problems in the lower belly and armpits.
