Procedural Sparkling Stained Glass ✨

[CypherPoet]

While experimenting with my own custom glassy materials, I decided to combine this lesson’s focus with a bit of the last lesson’s focus on clearcoats.

Eventually, this led me towards creating a procedural “sparkling” stained glass material: https://www.instagram.com/p/C1dBhK_vwUg

The Gumroad listing I made has a bunch of different screenshots – and I also went a bit crazy applying it to different objects and shapes within the color-grid backdrop from the lecture

Wow, that looks fantastic! I prefer the other renders over the fifth one, just because it doesn’t do your material proper justice when compared side-by-side, but they all look great =)

Thanks! And you’re right – the star is so thin that it definitely lacks the depth and distortions that the other geometries provide. I’d still top a Christmas tree with it, though

Cool!
