How do I create a clear material with blue edges?
Posted by Adrian Hawtin on June 21, 2021 at 2:01 pmHello, can anyone help or point me in the direction on how to create a transparent material with a blue edge as shown in the photo attached. I’ve tried lowing opacity but doesn’t offer the same effect. Many thanks

June 21, 2021 at 5:58 pmHi Justin, I’m pretty new to C4D so am still using the renderer that is included. I’m quickly realising that a third party render is the way to go but think that’s some time off. Is this effect still possible or am I getting ahead of myself?
