Tired of trying to get your characters skin to look right in Daz Studio? Sick of spending hours and hours burning and dodging your image? Yeah, me too!

Here is a simple quick tutorial on how to give your character textures that soft glow that only pregnant women seem to have. I have tested this out on a number of skin textures by various people and found it works great on all of them. You might need some minor tweaking here and there because of lighting but this should give you a good base to work with.

A few quick adjustments to your surfaces and bam! You have Sugar Skin!

Here is an example of this technique in use.

I don't seem to get that effect, and I'm applying exactly the same settings you applied in your tutorial... when I render with the "reflection" turned on I get the skin glowing, while lowering the "specular" strength to 23.1% makes the skin less shiny and more flat. I guess I'm missing something somewhere...

I'm going to have to give this a shot and see if it's effective on male figures -- I don't render images of female figures too often -- and maybe if it can be applied to some non-human creatures as well. Thanks for sharing the info anyhow!
