The skin of the cheekbone area is perfect!
Beautiful!

Mind, these aren't procedural textures; they're UV-mapped image, bump 
and specularity maps from DAZ.

But it does show what POV-Ray can do when given a chance. Poser's 
built-in render engine outright sucks in comparison.

The regular Poser renderer and Firefly actually can produce decent 
results, but do need to be set up correctly.  The default settings are 
what really suck. :P  How about making an identical setup pose, camera, 
and lighting-wise in Poser for direct comparison, to really show off 
POV-Ray's superiority?

That would be quite a struggle, with no fun to be had in that. I haven't 
yet managed to get Poser to do proper distance based light attenuation, 
placing the camera exactly like I want is a hassle, and the result won't 
reward me for the pain, due to ambient occlusion looking as blotchy in 
close-ups as poorly configured POV-Ray 3.6 radiosity.

No, I won't.
