MATERIAL STUDIES: CRYSTAL SHADING (procedural)

Hello everyone , here is a crystal material study i made for a school project.

The challenge was to work procedurally in Maya.

I used Arvid Schneider's tutorials as a base for my material, then i tweaked it as needed. ( https://arvidschneider.artstation.com/ )

The final render was inspired by Tiago Mesquita's work, I used the same method for the sand.
