  • C4R r16 Materials – Translucent Materials

    Posted by Vincent Rosier on January 3, 2017 at 10:28 am

    Hi, it has been some times now that i m self training on C4D to use it more specially to render my Product Design Rhino 3d Modelling.

    I m currently working on a project i’m meeting a lot of difficulties to make few materials such as: coloured translucent silicone, the overall translucent plastic and cry the color black and white.

    I m trying as well to make LED lights going through the translucent materials.

    Could yo please help me to understand how translucent materials works in C4D as well as light through materials.

    Thanks yo very much for you help.

    To have a better idea , please have a look at one of my reference image :

    with lights inside/behind an object Transparency with Blurriness will give some results. Physical render somewhat better particularly if you increase Blurriness Subdivision (Max) in the render settings. Other renderers might do better if you have access.
