Really nice work.
I feel that i have alot more to learn

Im currently working on how to solve making an egg shell. I want to illuminate threw the object so I get the object inside to show true by giving a darker area like a real egg. I built it to scale but have problems with the material. Any tips to get there?

[Mihai]

You're using an SSS material? It should be pretty easy with SSS, perhaps blending it with a BSDF component. Make sure the shell has some real thickness even if it's really thin.

Here's a Harley I did awhile back but never posted it...not cool enough I didn't think.

Cheers, Ron

That's one of the thing that could be resolved with atmospheric procedural !

I'd make an egg, with a tiny hole somewhere, apply a shell, so that i could play with real SSS materials for the egg shell, and the inside

Do you have a reference you want to reproduce?

Yes/no ?

[Maximus3D]

I have to say no, i'm sorry. But i don't know what exactly i'm looking at here def. Could you explain a bit please ?

It's always a pleasure to (try to) help people here, with my relative knowledges
My yes/no question was about my previous questions that was dying
I did my tests and posted them here without explanations, waiting for my answers first.

To answer to you max, my results are not great i know, it's a just study case
I did a sphere, little hole in it to apply a shell, and applied it a SSS
I've put a smaller sphere in it with a Glass material, to simulate kind of egg liquid
I've added a deformed smaller sphere in it, to simulate the yellow part of the egg (dont have the translation for that), with a yellow SSS
An emitter behind, and that's all

So the result is we see through, as Assistant asked previously

Before i edit it, take a look a little upper, a hack banner has been added to my post

Yeah, I saw that. Imageshack has been "compromised".

[def4d]

Image Shack, or my account?
