    Very nicely done, @mikoweb . The plastic look befits the motif.

    I like the dirt effect a lot. I dont really like the face tat but, thats just my taste.
    Id have liked to seen a church in the backround instead of checkerboard.

    yep ! I used to be a hitman's saints fan...Could be a nasty face of it.
    But yes, why not...Regan 2018 its a good approach too...a bit more...freaky, and we get it !!

    @Adam
    : "instead of checkerboard"...as one can say.."c'est du vite fait !" (quicly done) 😉 take the outfit and put some (draft or not) renders here...could be very inspirating !
    There's surely too much light & gloss...get to check that.

    @mikoweb : For shiny latex/vinyl/whatever materials, I use the Iray Shiny Shaders by lilflame and I usually end up with good results.

    Miko, again, this is coming from a Poser user's perspective, so... take it with a bag (or two) of salt. I gave a similar advice to Adam, so here it is. Add a specular-only light, facing the character, and, if it turns some things too bright, lower the normal light(s) intensity a bit. Alternatively, you can fix the plastic sheen in photoshop. A fast way to do this, is to open the render in photoshop, copy the background layer (or layer 0, if you save them as TIF), turn the new layer into black and white, with "neutral density" preset, then "fade" that last action, with screen mode on the fade options, and 100% strength. Then, multiply the now white-washed layer. It will boost the shine in most vinyl/rubber/plastic/metal surfaces.

    P.S.
    Though, as I witnessed, many here are way beyond the need of a photoshop post-work walkthrough, I'll try and snapshot an editing process, and compile everything into a tutorial pdf, and add it to "free resources"... when that will happen, is affected by how much time I will have to afford.
