Pearlescent Car Paint

Cyrus Pendragon · 04-05-2005, 10:38 PM

I went through the car paint tutorial but I've got a question now: How do you make the material pearlescent?

I tried applying an ink n paint material (because with enough paint levels, it looks pearlescent) but you can't apply the ink n paint material to the colors in the falloff material.

So, is there a way to create a pearlescent car paint, and how?
