Default Re: How do I make transparent canopy of the plane?

Is there any difference between the colors blue and gray, to do the transparency?
No, especially if you're using greater than 90% transparency; When it's that clear, the color effect may be too subtle to discern. You'll have to preview your work to make sure it looks the way you want. I recall once needing to create a thick armored glass that had a green tint to it (especially the outer edges) and to actually see the difference, my transparency value was a little bit lower than the 95% or 96% I usually use for "clear" glass or perspex.
