The Mirror material
The Mirror material template allows creating materials simulating mirrors with full re-
flection. There is a unique parameter, Tint Color , to control the mirror color. Tint
specifies a color to tint the material.
The Plastic material
The Plastic material template allows you to create materials simulating several types
of plastic. In Plastic , Type can be Plastic (Solid) , Transparent or Vinyl , with a
specified Color ; Finish can be Polished , Glossy or Matte . Finish Bumps can be
defined by an Image or texture with a specified Amount . Relief Pattern controls re-
lief or main bump: in Image we choose an image; the Amount value controls the
relief importance. Tint specifies a color to tint the material.
The Solid Glass material
The Solid Glass material template allows you to create materials simulating thick
transparent materials, that is, considering refraction. In Solid Glass , we control Co-
lor , Reflectance , Refraction , and Roughness . With Refraction , we may select a
material type from the list or enter the index of refraction value. Relief Pattern con-
trols relief or main bump; its Type can be Rippled , Wavy , or Custom . The Amount
value controls the relief importance. Tint specifies a color to tint the material.
