Cloud/fluffy shader

Hey all-

trying to figure out if there are any good tutorials or assets on creating a shader like this? Does anyone know how I could achieve this? (the left side)

In the simplest sense, you’d use the facing angle past a certain amount to determine how much transparency should be there, but modulated by a cloudy noise texture or generated noise.

iOS Cloud Shader (Rim Alpha?)

Hello, I’m trying to create a shader for the iOS to make meshes look like fluffy clouds. I’m pretty new to writing shaders for unity and have run into some trouble. My original idea was to combine a fresnel like alpha (rim alpha) with a cloud texture alpha to have the model fade out towards it’s edges in fluffy lumps. I could not find a way to create a fresnel “rim light” effect however. At least not without getting into the more advanced surface shader stuff, which I’m under the impression won…
