Hey guys,

I'm having trouble creating translucent materials.

I read somewhere, that the tranmission map should be black and white, and use some medium to make the scatter/medium.

But I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong... dont work as plan!

I need some tips. Thanks

Hi samsue,
link the albedo texture node to trasmission.

the leaves are not volume, they are faces only, the medium will not work for them
