Natural nail color G8F

3DBerlin

I am a novice and trying to figure out how the g8f natural nail color..both toes and nails can be changed to a custom natural color of my choice and with a dull finish...no light reflection. Is this possible to do?

I went into the nail texture maps and adjusted the color on the default, it helped but did not remove the shine. I played with the surfaces settings and got it dull but I think that it also applied to other areas of the figure.....can someone advise, thanks

You should be able to select just the nails to adjust - try clicking on them with the Surface Selection tool.

Thanks Richard, that works

I have now noticed after reloading and applying a new hair the surfaces seem to be messed up on the hair and other areas now! Is there a way to make all surfaces go back to default without having to reset each one?

Reapply the original materials preset.

Ok, that helped but something is going on with the lights now, I am only using the default daz light set up, headlamp on when no other scene lighting is on....but, when I turn headlamp off the figure would go black before "no light"...now there is a distant light on and when I go to my scene hierarchy no lights are listed in the scene. What is going on??? I have never had this happen before, I only want the headlamp...no other lights

Lighting issue solved, in Environments I had "dome and scene" somehow selected, therefore when the headlamp was turned off the dome distant light was on. The minute I set it to scene only the figure went black and switched back the headlamp. I realize when I learn more it will become necessary to stop using perspective view and add cams and lights for good renders. Thanks again Richard!
