Hi,
after having read and seen about C5, I am seriously considering to upgrade.
I mean _seriously_.
There are, anyway, some things that are _very_ important for me, on which I
would like to have some enlightening from those who are using the beta
version (or even better, made it):
1- Is translucency in materials supported in C5? I know subsurface
scattering is, which some consider to be the same thing - I am not technical
enough to know if this difference/identity is true or not, BUT, what I am
really interested, for professional reason, is the typical translucency that
you have with very thin materials, such as a leaf, or a curtain - much
thinner than marble or wax.
2- Would any of you C5 beta users be so kind to render a tree for me, with
translucency applied to the leaf material, so that the thinner part of the
leaf becomes lightened by the sun. I need a very simple backlighted scene,
with a tree, a sky, and sun in front or camera (or anyway hitting the leaves
so that translucency can be visible. Don't be afraid - push the effect
hard - I want to see what happens.
If you don't have a suitable tree model, you can download this free sample:

or

It is a very important test for me - if I see good enough results in this, I
am sold on C5.
And - I would like to see as much C5 beta renders as possible, particularly
with HDRI. Is there a C5 beta gallery somewhere to look at?
Thank you VERY much to the kind who will want to help.
