Columnar rock structures.

[masonspappy]

It's basically simple, just vertically stretched noise and a bit of strata!

Great! And thank you for not using blue nodes.

Promising progress. 

Play some blue notes in the meantime Bobby.

groan...good one...

Sounds like Matt requested a .tgc or a .tgd of this in post 15, heh heh heh

Great experiments, great renders - and great comment!

Awesome

That looks to be some fantastic rock. Good job on the results.

Because I am very old school and have the time, I had to recreate this rather than just modify it. Below is the "bare bones" columnar rocks, blue nodes and all. I did this so as not to get those annoying error messages about the trees, because I don't have those. haha
You can all laugh when I tell you it took me all day yesterday to do this, then finally found my error in my twist and shear shader where I left x value at 1.
Found out where noise is in functions, learned to create a group in variations, found the difference in scalar and vector constants....list goes on and on.
Thanks again for this share.

Nice one!

Embrace the blue!

I guess this was a successful share as you seemed to have learned a bunch working thru it...nice....

@BobbyStahr I am no longer asking myself....where in the heck is surface layer_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1...
Duh...copy paste does that as you add a new layer or whatever, haha. I get less dangerous by the minute.

[Jo Kariboo]

Again a very nice rock formation!

[DocCharly65]

Congratulations, you have obviously much better discipline than me 
Your learning results are getting better and better!
