Fresnel

Is is possible to make a material with Fresnel properties in the colour channel - i.e. the material looks different colors depending on the viewing angle? Like opalescence or iridescence? This is a property that some car paints have as well. How would I do that with Indigo's materials system?

Hi Forgeflow,
angle-dependent colours aren't possible right now, but will be when the new 2.4 beta is released very soon.
See some examples here:
