Is it possible to get a result like this? The materials in rl are optical and optical lead crystals. I've been playing around with blender for hours trying to get something similar but I can't get the dispersion of colors to have an effect like these crystals. Thanks in advance.

Re: Crazy Crystal Glass Affect, is it possible?
I built the model the same size but I don't know where the lights would be. But also I have no clue what lux material would work best for this type of glass, any thoughts?
Re: Crazy Crystal Glass Affect, is it possible?
But still, even after you model it in detail, it will be quite a tricky task to mimic material, since there's no simple way of reproducing dichroic glass.
First, glass material doesn't have thin film feature and after is getting correct shadow colors which also depend on thin film (complementary to transmissive color, which is based on an angle of incoming light).

Just double checked in BlendLuxCore, glass material does have a thin-film option.kintuX wrote: ↑Wed Jun 16, 2021 1:33 pm But still, even after you model it in detail, it will be quite a tricky task to mimic material, since there's no simple way of reproducing dichroic glass.

It does have a thin film option, I just wonder if I use that for the glass inside AND out or just the inside hmmm...Thanks everyone for the help!

Here's a video of Jon Kuhn, a glass artist explaining & showing how some pieces are made.
Also, use diffraction to get even more astounding looks (note: takes more computing resources)

How do I use Defraction and where can I find it in blender? Watching the link now! Thanks!kintuX wrote: ↑Fri Jun 18, 2021 9:59 am Here's a video of Jon Kuhn, a glass artist explaining & showing how some pieces are made.
