The problem is that using media sss on an mesh having an internal structure
often gives ugly results due to the shadows cast by these structures. The
face of a Poser model such as this one contains a lot of these structures
(nose, eyes, mouth), so the sss only works OK on the simpler body parts and
only when they have enough polys (which caused me a lot of trouble for the
ISS image last year) :(
