V-Ray Fog Glass Tutorial | How to Create Coloured Glass in 3DS Max

In this tutorial, I show you how to create realistic coloured glass using V-Ray Fog in 3DS Max, perfect for archviz, CGI, and architectural visualization projects.

We’ll cover the four main ways to control V-Ray Fog:

1. Fog Colour: The darker the colour, the more impact on your glass material.

2. Bitmap & Procedural Maps: With V-Ray 3.6+, you can insert textures into the fog colour slot for more complex effects.

3. Fog Multiplier: Increase this to darken your fog and change the material’s look.

4. Fog Bias: Controls how quickly the glass transitions from light to dark—positive numbers slow it down, negative numbers speed it up.

I provide clear examples of each setting so you can achieve realistic coloured glass materials quickly and easily. This tutorial is ideal for artists looking to enhance their V-Ray glass workflow and improve photorealistic renders in 3DS Max.
