Tutorial: How to simulate lampshade materials in Vray SketchUp

Vray double sided material allows seeing the light on the backside of the objects. Vray artists use this material to simulate thin translucent surfaces like paper, lampshades, curtains, leaves and others. Gerbe Dumahil explained in this nifty tutorial how to simulate lampshade material using double sided material in Vray SketchUp.










Other renders done with the same technique.

    Does the two sided material has to be painted on front and back side of the face? Nice tutorial I am having hard time making curtains and lamps. Thanks

      Almost a year later... :)
      After increasing light from 22 to 1100 still no effect.
      What fresnel parameters shoud be applied to reflection layer?

      in your 2SIDED8.jpg the LAMP material in sketchup scene is semitransparent. The material I got in sketchup after using the settings from the tutorial is completely opaque.

      When the LIGHT material is rendered, provides high gloss material such as plastic or latex but is completely opaque.

      can you say what version of sketchup / vray do you use?
      can you upload working material (of full scene w. materials) to forum?

      Thanks in advance

      same problem but finally found the solution.. i'll try to explain here, but sorry for my english.. you just have to make sure there are no beveled surface in the object, beveled means there are 2 planes between the light source and 'camera'.. if you create a box between light source and 'camera' then no effect happen.. if the light source inside the box, then it will happen.. i hope you understand what i meant..
      that works for me..

      2- go to Vray materials editor and apply 2sided-Material to selection.
      and enjoy.. it works for me.. thnx good Tut

    Hi! excellent tutorial! great work! It worked for me, but I lost the parameters of the LAMP material, I was trying to check them but the images are gone! It says something like update your account of photobucket. Cheers!
