Title: Interior pool water
Post by: slavcho on 2018-01-14, 20:47:11
Hi guys

I am looking for a good material for pool water (interior). Ideally it should be transparent so that the markings in the pool are visible like in the reference attached. Does anyone have a such material in hand or a good tutorial for it?

Best regards and many thanks!

this one is based on Vray, but probably you can use the same principles..

Just set:
-diffuse level 0
-reflection level 1
-refraction level 1
-reflection IOR 1,33
-refraction IOR 1,33
add a bump map

and you're done :)

Then you can play around with absorption and scattering if needed.

There is also a "water clear" material in the Corona Material Library (https://coronarenderer.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/12000039648).
