Hm, SSS...

I tried your "SSSish"-Material just yesterday, as well as the "flesh" material 
in the samples folder of RS3D and was disappointed.
I assume I've made some mistake - for with neither material I could achieve any 
SSS-effect.
Ok - if the "thickness" of the material is small enough, I get shadows that 
hint to the material being transparent, so some kind of 
translucency/transparency is obviously achieved.
But with neither material I could get the surface of the material to look even 
remotely translucent. Whatever I set for thickness/absorbance - the look of the 
objects surface stays the same.

Is this normal or could I have made a mistake with the channels that are needed 
or something else? I know you have to load the SSSish material as a project, so 
I made sure that the appropriate channel was loaded correctly.
Could there be any other source for this "underperformance" of the 
SSS-materials?
