Hello, i need help!
I try to simulate a material like the attached picture, i try different opacity, refraction, nothing looks good.
Can u help me please :/

I would say its important that your geometry has the same characteristics. Usually i would suggest a cimbination of Refraction and translucency, maybe SSS also.
And of course a falloff map for oppacity.

Hi. I made this one some time ago (alpha 7) but should work the same.

It´s just translucency + Falloff map in opacity. Hope it can help you.

A bit late, but here is my attempt. Not perfect, but I could not get any closer. I could not make the edges as bright as in the reference photo... I think very important part is to make the model as realistic as possible (which I didn't do as this was just a quick test ;) ).
