When New Characters Get Advertised...

But Sun-Sky is the best way to show the customers what they get in a reproducable fashion with no guess work when they see an ad. And Sun-Sky can make quite good images - no one say you musy exclusively stick to highnoon on summer solstice to do Sun-Sky once you buy but now when we buy we are left guessing what the lighting is and adjusting Translucency Weight and other things to get something like ad copy. It'll come, that's what PBR is all about.

A good vendor will do their best to create skin textures and shader material settings that work in all lighting situations, but sometimes you're simply not going to get the exact same results without the same exact lighting.

Well, PAs choose to sell new characters rather than texture sets alone or morph sets alone because it must be they have a much higher sales volume. I can have a character morphed out to the maximum but if I am using the same texture set, most of the character's changed geometric looks, unless they are extreme, will go unnoticed because that's the way people's vision works. I mean, it's not natural for 2 people to have the same fingerprints is it?

Even identical twins don't have the same fingerprints, or so I am led to understand...
