Here I've moved the main light so it is coming from the right and 45 degrees up.

Observe the locations of the hot spots. The Phong node is completely inappropriate. Just don't use it.

Notice that because the front side and back side (reflection) form similar angles with the light and viewer, the front-lit and back-lit distinction is nearly gone. This is side-lit.


Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
