Translucent marble vray.

While the example images are from 3ds max the same concepts and settings can be used in v ray for maya. The information covered. When i create a material from scratch i usually just pick any random color from the sketchup material window rename it and then head over to the vray material editor to configure it. Vrayfastsss2 is a material primarily designed for rendering translucent materials like skin wax marble etc.

Translucent marble could it be that your material has a bump map. I just reported a bug that prevents translucency from rendering when a bump map is active. Regular glass is the easiest of them all and acts as the foundation for the rest of the materials. Now in a few simple steps you can simulate translucent leaves curtains and lamps without any drastic increase in rendering time.

In this series of turbo tips we re giving you an in depth guide to regular v ray material. The steps we do here will be repeated in the other materials. Share and comment guys. See the references below.

I hope you found this tutorial helpful and if you did you ll find my other tutorials equally helpful. The translucent materials in the vray express materials should give you a good starting point. If you want to see more examples for this material check out this official resource. We ll cover the theory behind many of the features of the material and give you specific examples of settings and tricks to use.
