Hi,

I would like to simulate a transparent paper (white-yellowish) for use as a
lamp cover (I want to model these IKEA paper lamps). The color and filter
values I have are ok, but how do I get the fibre like structure of the
paper in it? 

thanks,
gert

probably by varying the thickness of the paper and/or varying the density of 
the media you might be using?

try crackle the pattern .... I used it for my lamp glass

#declare transp = 0.05;

#declare Lamp_Glass=
texture {
  pigment {crackle scale 1 turbulence 0
    color_map {
      [0.0 rgbf <0,0.3,0,transp>]
      [0.5 rgbf <0,0.6,0,transp>]
     }}
    finish {ambient rgb <0,0.6,0> diffuse 1}
  };

Ciao Jim
