Thanks for replying,borisquezadaa.
A gradient ramp. Never thought of that before. Thanks for the link. From what he said, Lighting, camera angle do play a big role in defining the way the glass would and should look.
I have learnt for sometime now that nothing beats using photo reference as base for understanding and creating materials. Some people feel like its cheating, or don't even bother or they try and replicate what they think it should look like. I have been using references for a good while now and I am beginning to see improvements.
Thanks again.
