OMG so wonderful

[dynaraton]

Super material!
Great Job

[Maximus3D]

Sweet! that's looking great oneshot nice work man.
I guess based on it's looks that it's based around a SSS material ?

Please post more rendered examples, and are you planning on posting this shader on the MXM Gallery ?

Hmmm, very nice SSS!!!

[Hervé]

very cool....

(I like your avatar m-Que... he he)

[Hervé]

cool stuff... hehe... put some basic bones in the arm...

[mverta]

I'm not sure if you're factoring scale into this or not yet, but those arm tests - you'd need a light source so strong you'd burn the skin completely off before you got that kind of sss through a forearm. Well, my forearm anyway...

Otherwise, looks nice!

Mike, some people are transparent like jellyfish...

[pwrdesign]

Yeah it looks good as a skin, add some bones there to get it look like an arm

[tom]

Very good start but the second BSDF having weight 20 ruins the result. Because it has a tinted reflectance with low roughness causing a metallic look on the flesh. A specular layer for the skin should be very different than this.

The material doesn't include flesh and bones though - if you just extracted your skin the sss might work similar to that.

.... I would use Mike's technique of putting a lighter coloured diffuse map in the reflectance 90. Dont think skin would have a reflectance 90 of pure white. Thats my thinking but then you should probably listen to the big boys.

[rivoli]

good effort, but as tom says it's a bit too reflective and that makes it look like plastic. that and the sss effect being really strong give the feeling of hollow plastic, especially on the first images.

In real life you wouldn't see the bones, so why implement that?

Great shader, perhaps you could make it less plastic and more elastic.

[sandykoufax]

Looks great material.

In real life you dont have that see-through feeling either Because of the bones for example, so they are indeed visible.

But this is about a great skin material, and it is a great skin material!
Its up to the person who uses it, to add some bones... if he/she even wants to do an arm
