Realistic Crystall Material in 3D Studio MAX [1/7]

We will continue with our 3D Studio MAX Tutorials and now we can use vase model from previous tutorial (Vase model in 3D Studio MAX) and will continue with material for the vase. Of course most vases made from glass which have specific refraction and reflection abilities. In this tutorial I will show you how to prepare this glass material and render the scene with Mental Ray to get the most photo realistic result.

First we have to prepare our glass material. This can be done in Material Editor. Material Editor can be found in main menu in 3D Studio MAX or by icon in toolbar like shown on the picture below.
