Metal "glitter" material node tip

Support Materials and Textures
1

Hello. :slight_smile:

I am going to model a series of products that have an interesting surface finish(which gives the product a specific character).

However, I would like to ask you for a tip on the node for the material.
In fact, it is a metal surface with powder paint (spray). But that color has something like “glitter” in it. It sparkles in the daylight.

I also tried to take a photo, hopefully it will help.

Ideally it will be in PBR.

We thank everyone for their advice and willingness. :innocent:

Something with voronoi texture should be sufficient.

Voronoi is always a good choice!

For extra glitteriness you can change the normals based on the Voronoi cells directly (such that every cell points in a different direction):

With normal changes:

Thanks @skuax and @LordoftheFleas .

Your advice was very helpful.
I made a kind of combination of shaders from both of you and the result is quite interesting. It is very similar to what I wanted. :slight_smile:
