I was wondering if anyone here has some of ColorGalerias characters from over at Rendo? I would like to see some renders with her stuff but when I search here or Rendo I get no results.
Was wondering if they are of good quality?

The promos look nice, so they should do fine. rendo has a refund policy also, so they are worth trying.
I have MYKT Latrisha, from back when ColorGaleria's vendor name used to be Moykot. The only annoyances I've run into are that she doesn't really have a No Makeup texture, and her default texture brows are a little ... much. Her base has blush and lip stick/gloss (though no eye makeup, I don't think); the lips can be muted somewhat by copying her face to her lips surface, since a lot of that is controlled by shader settings, but it doesn't entirely remove all the lip gloss.. I also don't like her default texture's painted brows, which are very very painted -- almost stylized and artificial-looking. She comes with a no-brows texture, though, so it's easy enough to just use the fibermesh brows of your choice.
All that said, Latrisha was one of their earlier characters, so it's possible that the permanent makeup and very painted brows aren't issues with later characters.
Looking at her store at Rendo (I don't own any of her characters myself) her more recent characters include fibermesh eyebrows, so that problem seems to have been solved. But the issue with super glossy lipstick seems very much still in evidence.
I have bought a couple of ColorGaleria/Moykot characters as they are very striking IMHO.

This is a super quick render with Annelie using BOSS Portrait light system in DAZ Studio and Iray. Some post in Photoshop.
One more - same character, different lights, and I tweaked the shaders to reduce the shininess of her skin.

I have Talilo. I admittedly haven't used him much but I see no problems.
His skin seems to have a greenish tint, but he's supposed to be an elf so I'm pretty sure that's on purpose.
Head morph tweaked, but not the materials:
