I'm loving cc3, but two of my characters have problems with their ears.

As you can see, in the first one I'm trying to make his skin green but no matter what I try I can't change the ear color, and the second one has a weird bump in it .

Note on that first guy's ear with the green skin. If I turn off the auxiliary light, the ear color looks fine. Not really useful since I'll be using lights in my scene, but maybe that provides some insight on what's going on?

If you have already tweaked Base Color Map and it did not change the ears color, then you have to play with Subsurface Scattering.

Paint ear parts on the Transmission map to darker shade (you have to embed that map first to be able to open it in an external editor and change it).
And also change the Falloff color. Otherwise play with SSS settings to get it right.

The auxiliary light is only a "working" light provided to assist users setup dark scenes without having to make any changes to their lighting, it does not get included in any rendered images. It can nor be adjusted in any way to change the brightness, colour or angle and should be turned off before attempting to render out an image.

Ah, adjusting the subsurface scattering color did it! I played with almost every other adjustment, but somehow missed that one, lol. Thanks.
