Hey everyone!
I recently got back into lighting and rendering for a model, but I've hit a dead end trying to reproduce the effect of lighting going through a paper cocktail umbrella.
In my current scene, I have a standard 3 point light set (directionnal lights) with a blue-ish spherical area light inside the umbrella for that blue hue feel. I also have GI and FG activated with mental ray (only the area light has the "Emit Photons" option active). Also to note that the shader does have translucency.

I've searched for solutions online, but the closest I could get was the paper lantern lighting. Any solution (and feedback in general) appreciated, thank you!
