Hi Leigh (and anyone else who might know)

It's me, Mike, and the old Smirnoff bottle in Maya.

I have the labels stuck on a glass bottle which is transparent and it looks great. When you pan around the bottle however you see the underside of the labels which are just mirror images of the labels. In reality, these would be white. How can I make the underside of my projected labels white. Is there a way to make the projection visible only in the direction it's facing?

Thanks a lot

Hmm heh tricky one. I don't know if there is an option to get rid of it... ideally though you should have modelled the model with double sides, so why not select the inside polygons and assign them a different surface?
