Hi all,
I am rendering glasses/sunglasses with mirror-lenses. The lenses could be for example red glass with yellow mirror, grey glass w silver mirror, green glass with red mirror etc. I am building a library with base materials and mirror materials to be able to combine those as i want later.
I get quite good results with the VRayBlendMtl. However something is missing. The blend material is more of a mix between the base material and the mirror material, and if the the mirror for example is 90%, the base material almost has no effect which is not true in real life, I beleive in this particular case. Imagine a very opaque base material with a transparent but very reflective mirror material. If I make the mirror material contribute with 90% the final material is very transparent sincer the base material is almost gone. In the real world the opaque base material would still block most of the light from passing through eventhough there is a mirror shellac on top of it.
I imagine I miss something, such as shellac mode, Energy Preservation option or...? You have any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
