V-Ray for 3ds Max — How to Make Translucent Fabric

V-Ray for 3ds Max — How to Make Translucent Fabric

Follow this V-Ray for 3ds Max tutorial to discover the easiest way to model translucent fabric material with VRay2SidedMtl.

Objects like cloth allow light to pass through them even though the actual substance they are made of is not really transparent or refractive. The light passing through the cloth is described as translucency. When bright light is placed behind a piece of fabric then back side characteristics of the fabric strongly effect its overall appearance. VRay2SidedMtl is the best choice for representing cloth and other translucent objects.

Translucency determines which side (front or back) relative to the camera is more dominant in the render.

Select the VRay2SidedMtl node. In the Parameters rollout, set the Translucency color to the desired value. Note that darker colors make the VRay2SidedMtl look more solid, while lighter colors make it more sheer and allow more light from the back side to pass through the object.

 

More information about translucency in V-Ray is here.

3D character models: when to use ready-made assets instead of custom designs

Working in CG and archviz often means balancing creative intent with production realities. Human presence can support scale, context, and clarity, but it also adds another layer of decisions. Ready-made 3D character assets help keep visual focus where it belongs without expanding the project scope beyond its real needs

Using 3D building models for industrial and commercial visualizations

In professional visualization, buildings are more than background elements. They define context, scale, and clarity for industrial and commercial projects. Well-prepared 3D building models help viewers read a scene instantly and understand its purpose without relying on technical descriptions or supporting text
From concept to render: where 3D models fit in the pipeline

From concept to render: where 3D models fit in the pipeline

The production pipeline in CG and visualization is built on a sequence of clear decisions. Each stage depends on how information is defined, shared, and preserved. 3D models serve as digital assets that translate abstract ideas into structured visual data and consistently carry them through to the final render
Why 3D model bundles are the smart choice for designers

Why 3D model bundles are the smart choice for designers

In professional CG and architectural visualization, efficiency depends on structured decision-making and reliable resources. Using grouped 3D assets allows us to focus on scene logic, composition, and project consistency instead of repetitive asset preparation and library management.

3D furniture models: speed up interior design projects

3D furniture models support structured, predictable interior design workflows in professional archviz. In projects where deadlines, coordination, and visual consistency matter, ready-to-use assets reduce friction and enable teams to focus on spatial decisions rather than repetitive preparation.
