It's more frustrating than anything, but I'm glad I got it figured out. Here he is with the skin update complete (sans gens, those'll be later) in a portrait render. Pardon the eyes, I didn't let it finish.
Thank you both! He's a character of a story of my and my S/O's, and in there he's my version of an elemental (fire and water-hence the dual coloring), but he can be anything anyone wants him to be. LOL
So, I did work two quick renders of this version close up and more shoulder/neck/lower portion of the face with the base material setting and an add-on metallic/gloss option.
Base-
With one of the colors of gloss/metallic overlay pattern-
The gloss/metallic option has a pattern that is all-over with several color options so far.
I've been saving out materials, checking seams and making hair-time to work on areas where I can't show off. XD

That's nice. The elemental take is actually more interesting.
Almost there. A few things to work out for corrective bends, found a seam in one of the illumination LIE maps and one or two tattoos and it will be time to get the icons done and send him for testing.

A hint of what is being worked on...
It looks well constructed, it this going to be a Elf-life or alien character?
Well hello there, I find myself incredibly interested all of a sudden.

Elemental and Human side-by-side:
Working on renders.
Oooh, I hope this means he can come home with me soon, I've cleared a space for him in my library and everything.
I'm still working on promos, but he's getting there! Thank you!
He's done, and now for testing. XD
Kind of scary. Those eyes are great, looks like there is fire in them.
Thank you!
I just love this new character Darwin!!!!
He is so versatile and the skin is truely amazing!!
Thank you so much!
I'm glad he's finally out for people to work with. I hope you enjoy him if you snag him.
Starting on the next one-stay tuned. XD
Thanks, it looks good, I think he will combine well with the recent Nightcrawler (Kurt Wagner, X-Man)
So glad to see you are back! I grabbed Aksel the moment he appeared, but haven't had a chance to give him a spin. Thanks Darwin.
Awesome, thank you both! So glad people are enjoying him.
Sneak peak at the next runtime man-Julian
fiddling with lighting and stuff while working out the beard/stubble ideas
Finished render. May have to go back and redo one of the three parts of the beard, but not bad.
Duplicate post.
We don't mind seeing him twice.
LOL, thank ya ;)
That's good. Where is the clothing from? It's a good style match.
