My render finally looks like a real donut instead of a melted crayon, and it took me 3 evenings of restarting the tutorial to get the subsurface scattering right. Anyone else struggle with getting the icing to sit naturally on the torus without clipping through?
The clipping's the worst part honestly, ice it too thick and it looks like a blob, too thin and you get those weird gap holes... I ended up just scaling the icing up slightly and moving it down a few clicks, takes forever but feels way more solid.
