Title: translucid porcelain
Post by: a737 on March 30, 2011, 02:14:36 AM
Anyone knows how to make a porcelain material with an emissive light bulb inside so as to see how the light affects the porcelain making it a bit translucent? I prepared an andvanced material and lightened the specular transmision so it becomes more transp, but some wiered effects appeared...

Thanks!

I am interested in an answer to this too.
I assume by translucent porcelain you mean something like this:

I tried it using the shared ceramic material from a previous post, but I get grey splotches on the surface that dont seem to disappear with more samples...

OK I get the difference between bone china and china, and china and pottery.

But what is the defiition of porcelain ?  Can porcelain be china too? And is it produced in a certain area ?

Take for example, Wedgwood.  I thought I knew that blue jasperware is unglazed pottery.

Now I am wondering if that can also be termed porcelain?

Appreciate some clues, thanks.
