Procedural texture in the center of the iris of the eye

[Pombex (Leonardo Pereira)]

Hello there! i’m creating an eye procedurally but i can’t figure out how to make it this part in the center of the iris highlighted in the images below:

how can i create this type of pattern procedurally? i tried the wave texture but the results was not so good.

The eye is looking like this so far:

Would something like this work. You would probably have to overlay it into your existing texture.

Thank you for the reply!

This way is kinda the way i was doing, but in the references i don’t know… i think it has some voronoi in some areas, they intersect and make a hole in some parts (like the highlighted part in the image below) , and some areas are pointy.

But i will try this node setup that you show me and tweak it.

Thank you again!
