Rendering Translucent Materials Using Photon Diffusion

A new algorithm for rendering translucent materials that combines photon tracing with diffusion.
It is more accurate and capable of capturing several illumination effects previously ignored when
simulating the diffusion of light in translucent materials.

that paper already was posted some months ago^^
Indigo's SSS still renders more SSS-related effects, as far as I know. And that technique in this paper is biased, if I remember correctly...
