Wow, that is wonderfull. How did you do this magickal thing?
Awesome job!

Mad skillz.
Your work is amazing!
mind blowing… youve inspired me to get back to some material experimentation
Too bad he did not render with caustics. Too bad caustics are ungodfully slow.
Awesome!!!
It would be nice to make the mineral sulfur 
I love this. Texture and material setup is unbeleivable, and so clean renders… How many iterations did you let it run? Beautiful work. Keep it up.
This is awesome!!!
Cool! Red’s my favorite!
please please make a tutorial for the materials, i believe it also has some volumetric as well, doesn’t it?

ideorium: Direct to your question, No there is no volumetric nodes at all… I’m making a tutorial now, but frankly I have no enough free time to finish it. Hopefully soon.
I did small preview just to show there is no volumetric nodes attached at all… However… because is mess at the moment - I hope you will find the tutorial easy understandable more clear.

thanks a lot @ivaydesign, looking forward to study your tutorial and node set up. It’s probably much better on computing power when no volumetric applied
Outstanding work. Nevermind the materials (they’re awesome), what I’m most interested in is the modeling techniques.
Amazing! Kudos.
