Looks like there are issues with the normals.

Do:

Normals > Unlock normals.
Normals > Set to face.
Normals > Soften edges.
Imagination is more important than knowledge.

WAIT I FIXED IT, I think... THANKS

I curiously pressed a button "Set Vertex Normal" as shown in the picture AND NOW ITS FIXED even though the Lighting looks dark, I compared it to the "High Quality Viewport Render" AND it looks the same..

A million Thanks man......

Also... I turned up the Translucence to brighten the texture (and added a few lights that didn't really seem to help much) (even though it's a dark texture in the first place, atleast it's not as dark) ...again, Thanks alot man
