This is just quick test of trying to recreate a wax material for some candles. I know some of the uvs are not correct since my main focus was the candles. Rendered with pathtracing.

Very Nice. 
Can you post the settings of the wax material? I made, some time ago, tried to replicate... look here
http://www.refractivesoftware.com/forum ... f=9&t=7681
and Radiant Tutorial series "SSS hack - thanks to refracty" http://www.refractivesoftware.com/forum ... 6&start=30
but it's a fake wax (my settings)
and maybe it's complicated settings

I posted two versions of fake wax on octane live db in materials/misc section. Try them on the scene that you tested with and maybe you need to tweak them a bit. The first material uses translucency mixed slightly with a glossy material to give it shine and the second one has
the same settings but instead the transluceny is replaced with a specular material with high roughness and some tweaking of absorption.
have fun

I really like your setup. Very nice indeed.
I just started testing this today myself, and couldn't figure out a few things. Most of them have to do with scale. I just noticed the tutorials by radiance, so I'll watch those before I put up any noob questions, here are my pics...
p.s. I should probably set up a different test. Something doesn't seem proper to me. I'm not used to setting up this kind of stuff.

- This is just a basic proximity test with each section having different variables. i like it, but I suppose I'm going to have to use something akin to a "shadow" map to get what I want.

- I added a checker pattern to properly visualise the effect without dimming lights too much ad my scene will be well lit when I do it.

What did you use for the setup, translucency or absorption, also what do mean
by shadow map.

I stuffed the 2 different materials into the open diffuse slot that is "supposed?" to be for translucency.
I should have just written "translucency map". I hope it will give me the proper results.
