Enforcer wins. His idea works just fine. Clip under 10% worked like a charm and I got the effect I was looking for. Good thing you suggested it cause I would have never thought that one up in a million years. I tried the idea of mixing materials with one turned slighty transparent and well scratch that idea cause the mask then no longer works properly. Just the back lighting alone was not enough, the leaves still looked too solid for me. They look fine now.
