Realistic Skin Shader for Keyshot

A realistic skin shader for Keyshot. Fully customizable, you can import your own character, your own texture maps, press render!

The shader is made to ease the process of achieving a realistic skin, which can be hard challenge in Keyshot because of it's limiting capabilities when it comes to translucent shaders.

With this shader, you'll get a lot of custom nodes to connect to reproduce a faithful optical behavior of various skin layers.

This skin shader was build to provide 3D artist and designers a quick way to obtain realistic skin results without going into a complex node setup by themselves.

The best results are achieved by using high quality and high resolution textures but also low quality textures, such as the ones provided with DAZ 3D, can get you good results.
