Some good news for people who have this but aren't sure about changing settings or altering skin maps in Photoshop to get different results.  Olympia 8 and Sharah (who comes in the Olympia 8 Pro and Starter bundles) come with SSS maps that work perfectly with this shader.  All you need to do is after you apply the shader is to swap out the transulucency map that is set automatically with Olympia 8's Sub Surface shader for a darker look and Sharah for a lighter one.  Olympia comes with the same type of layered make up as Victoria 8 does and Sharah even comes with her make up baked into the SSS map.  Both even come with or without brows.  So if you invested in this product the Olympia 8 packs give you more options without having to change anything other than the Translucency map (and perhaps the specular map as well).  Here is a quick render of Sharah (I can't help thinking that it's just Sean Connery calling her Sarah.  LOL) using the original shader and the second picture is a very quick viewport render to show some of the varience the different maps give you.  The Face is Olympia 7, the Torso Sharah and the legs are using Victoria 8's SSS to show that you can even use it as well.  The arms are using Sharah's SSS with EcVh0's pale shader to show that you can even use it with that as well without needing to change anything but the maps!  Give them a try and happy rendering!

Thank you very much for the test!! I was about to do it myself but got stuck up with my first ever simple outfit I'm making - when I put my head up to the clock I was like: "Crap is it 2 am already????"  (And that's why I replied so slow XD)

And Yeah the DAZ3D's original figures has the similar skin shading approach, that's why they actually have to add the makeups onto their Translucency map and that makes them 100% compatible with mine!  Simply plug them in and it will work! (Tho I am kind of surprised that you don't need to change anything to get it work completely haha!)

I'm quite happy people who make characters are adapting towards the new skin shading method! it's so good that you can even do the "ear glowing" effect by putting a plane light behind her ears and vola, realistic shine through the ears

Pale skin addon's in the work! Heres a mini sneak peak :D

I am nuts about gingers as their colors have inspired my art for quite some time and I find them compelling as a muse; so this is an insta buy from me!

Thank you very much! I'm glad you like it :D

Oh, and do you have a texture without makeup/eyebrows, as most gingers do not have black lashes/brows...

Hmm! very interesting question! for lashes on G/V8 I believe you can just change it yourself fairly easily , the addon does not include a separate lashes you can feel free to edit!

As for the question for eyebrows, I don't have that much experience with gingers, do they instead have like, reddish eyebrows?

I will have a go and see if I can recreate that :D but the thing I'm sure I can do for you, is put up a detailed information on how you can edit the skin to get any effect you like the moment it's released

 

Okay, some real-world ginger experience here: some have light red eyebrows, and some have pale white-blonde ones. Eyelashes are the same. It depends on how authentic you want to be! But it's true-- I can't think of too many redheads who have dark brows and lashes. Wearing dark eye makeup always seems to lead to a zombie-Vampira look for me-- it works a lot better on your model, though. ;) Anyway, really looking forward to this one.

The shaders keep putting eyebrows on my figures even when I select figures with no eyebrows.  Is there any way to apply the shaders without adding the eyebrows?
