These are cool! That last one looks terrifyingly sharp. What kind of material did you use on it?
It started out as the milk translucency material Will, thanks for the taking the time to look and comment

Brilliant, Martin! So realistic. Is the Dogtooth Spar modeling done somehow with instance replacement of particles on the surface? I've never tried Blender, but I think I really must!

Cheers,

My thanks again Eric, the models are random linear subdivisions for mesh density, then Catmul-Clark subdivisions again for the displacement using cloud and Voronoi procedural shaders and some noise too for the rock

All the best guys, won't be around much for a few weeks after the weekend, so more renders are likely to be few and far between

So cool!
What base materials are you using here Martin?
Hi Hossein the Calcite is Miscellaneous/Milk the Acanthite is custom metallic paint with bump and metal colour using texture maps from KS

A happy new year to you both :)
