Just a bit of silliness using a modified Voronoi 3D A vector as a blend on some clouds.

The foreground is an eroded Voronoi heightfield.  I am not massively impressed with this   OK it's rubbish   but the clouds are the thing.

[dhavalmistry]

yes...love the clouds....what were the render times like???

[rcallicotte]

LOL.  Cool.

[Edit] I just realized that these smoke rings are an indication that Gandolph is not for away. [/Edit]

Render time just under 6 hours on 1.8 Ghz Celeron.

2048 X 1020
Quality 0.5
GI 2/2

Atmo. samples 64
Cloud samples 48

Combining all the function calculations into a single scalar then using that as the Mix Controller for a Blend Shader, blending between a constant zero and a Cloud Density Fractal is much quicker than using the functions in the Density Fractal directly.  Found that from njen's Spotty Alto clip.

cool !

I like the clouds. Their texture look real but the shapes are crazy which is great. I want to try some weird stuff with clouds but haven't yet due to impatience at render times.

[old_blaggard]

Well done!  Clever idea .

It needs a big cloud Homer Simpson.

Thanks for the comments 

I was just messing around but there is probably potential in those clouds if I can find my way through the adjustments and blends. Who knows I may even be able to do the elusive banded Alto (Mackerel sky) 

I am distracted at the moment by something VERY WRONG
