Render this: SSS

Here's my problem -
Place model in 'Basic Studio' with Omni Light behind model
Apply SSS material to model (Red Gum)
Sunlight Disabled
Sky Type - Background Color (Black)
Render at Medium+ (Still Cooking after 30mins)
Vista64bit - AMD Turion X2 Dual Core - 4GB
When i cooked at lower presets the model was very dark? Do i need to up light size?The Low, Med, High presets, being biased, don't do nearly as good a job at SSS as the unbiased methods. They have to make approximations and assumptions which can turn out quite well sometimes, but with complicated organic shapes you aren't going to get as good of results. At at the really low end, with Low or Low+, you may not actually get any results from SSS and translucency because those are designed for higher speed.

Here's my problem - ...The red rubber dragon I posted above was done in Twilight. I just used the SSS Rubber Ball right out of the box. It's done with Interior +, so that's probably the difference.
This is Twilight also.

Avariant..iridescent one is fantastic. Really good showing from Twilight.
Last one from me. Added some displacement in the mix.
-
I just want to print and hang in my walls all renders by Remus, Pete and Adam, they're wonderful!
-
earthmover these are fantastic! and yeah remus that blue rubber is amazing!

A little from Kerkythea

My first twilight attempt.
-
A couple of lazy attempts with just Twilight library materials:
Milk:
And blue gum. Indigo and Maxwell beat Twilight big time when it comes to blue gum/rubber.

I'm sick as a parrot after that one.
What the $@#* am I doing wrong?
I've read the manual, I've followed the tuts. All that's left is to remove the mallet from my ass and beat myself with it
Goodnight

Rich, here is my setup, see I have 3 lights behind and one in front, I rendered using preset #9
I used the studio setup, painted black, I have no sun and a black background.

Here's my attempt....
-
looks like I'm a bit behind.....oops
Guess I've been Dragon my ass.... 
-
Fantastic renders, guys! This is so cool
Using Twilight, I also had the same problem as Rich, I started using the Low and Medium presets and it was taking forever, but I'm getting much better results after switching to #10 - Interior+ (but not good enough to post here yet)

Very interesting thread........thanks for starting this.I've just started working with Twilight and rendering in general.Keep in mind I'm a carpenter, not a graphic artist so any breach of rendering etiquette is purely unintentional. This is what I came up with....not sure it meets any of the sss criteria but it sure was fun trying.

Twilight Render's Easy 09 preset should be enough; Easy 10 enables color dispersion and some other special FX, however.
I made two more tries: One with Easy 09 and another one with Easy 10. I stacked them together:
And then added some airbrush to the eyes and altered the curves a little bit in GIMP:
Hey, Pete, how about "Emitters and LEMs" for the next "Render this"?
-
I started with the Twilight SSS template (Wax I think), then I made some extra changes in KT to produce this material. I was really surprised how it turned out; I really like it.
-
Coca-cola version. Just a Kerkythea material.
-
Another try with Kerkythea. I didn't let it cook for more than a couple minutes as I'm preparing another one.
-
Guys I am really impressed with varied and good output. Seems all unbiased are doing really well, but I am very impressed with Vray/Max combo and Vue.
