That it does. I'm liking the skin shader a lot Cath, and the hair looks interesting, so looking forward to seeing that converted to Dawn 2.

Oh and the Asian girl is looking fantastic too! :D
Thanks Miss B, it slowly coming to life :applause:

Here my new fleshy skin shader that I am working on , eyes and bumps not done yet so lips and the rest kinds flat , eyebrows still too low , not proper eyelashes maps etc..
but I starting to like the skin better now . Used my own HDRI environment map for lighting, this shader will works in any light condition PBR based
@Miss B I am using hair from my old freebie set for G2 Back to the 80's, going to convert it to D2 as it is a funky full set.
Dang, this is amazing!!

Back on track creating different materials for the D2's Qing dynasty Manchurian outfit. Today's mostly used for weddings.
The color will be original red, purple , blue & green , the pattern on the outfit are from the last Empress of Qing dynasty original outfit. The fabric was heavy and layered to keep them warm in winter, beautifully embroidered with silk. Flowers was made of silk fabric, how bigger the flowers and head decor, how higher was the status of the noble lady.

and of course the first heels for women , Manchu Platform Shoes .. but the reason not for beauty, just to keep the feet/dress out of the street's dirt/mud ..
very weird , but true , the heel is located under the arch for balance .
Note: Manchu women never bound their feet
