Creating Rocks and testing Materials

This time I have tried to improve my material skills, using the node editor. To further improve my skills in the node editor, I have consulted a blender conference video " Materials Made Easy - Non-Destructive Shading in Blender" , that you can check  here. It belongs to the  Official Blender Youtube Channel .

At last, add a displace modifier with a second Voronoi texture, with smaller details. This gives the rock a more realistic look, without having to actually model a realistic one. On the modifiers tab you ...
