This is the second part of the alien orb tutorial. In this one we add some cool looking glitter, which I think is a useful effect for all kinds of things, and we add the light source in the center of the ball.
Let me know what you think!
A while ago I made a little doodle while playing with Gyroids and I decided to polish it up to make a nice effect and then make a tutorial about it. In the second part of this series we'll go over the glitters in the sand and we'll put a blinding light inside of the sphere. ========== Social Media Links ========== Twitter: @The_ArtOfCode Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theartofcode/ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheArtOfCode ShaderToy: https://www.shadertoy.com/user/BigWIngs PayPal Donation: https://paypal.me/theartofcode FXHash Generative NFTs: https://www.fxhash.xyz/u/The%20Art%20of%20Code ========== If you want to follow along ========== Starting point: https://www.shadertoy.com/view/7sSfDR The finished effect: https://www.shadertoy.com/view/tlcXWX ========== Other videos to watch ========== Part 1 of this tutorial: https://youtu.be/b0AayhCO7s8 ShaderToy for complete beginners: https://youtu.be/u5HAYVHsasc Writing a ray marcher: https://youtu.be/PGtv-dBi2wE Smooth minimums: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJ4iyff7zbk Polar coordinates: https://youtu.be/r1UOB8NVE8I
