Nice iridescence..... Are they transparent ? ....and reflecting ? Good crystal formation too....
Are they transparent --lol -- they're trying to be ;) The iridescent color comes from lower crystal shapes built into the terrain underneath, and it's displaced water material from the ocean with a clone of the terrain texture (with a 'max' to make an actual ocean level) coating the iridescent parts of the terrain, and poking up extra in places.
I've got reflections turned off, so that's just the shiny bright highlight whatnot. True refraction is on, but it's not working quite as I hoped..
nice materials
Dazzling!
Makes me dizzy just to look at it... ✌️😉
try a dot product between surface normal and ray direction on specular and transparency...
