  Scattering media problem

Hi(gh)!

I want to model my now-defunct bathroom scales and started with the 
glass pane - when viewed edge on, it should display a dark bluish green. 
I used scattering media to achieve this (first attached image) but then 
noticed that the media color almost disappeared when viewed against a 
non-black background (second image). I tried to fix this by adding an 
interior_texture (without reflection) to the material statement, but 
then the media color was even less visible (third image).

What do I wrong? Should I try absorbing media instead?

See you in Khyberspace!

Yadgar
